Ray Sharpton UPDATE!

[luvdsny]

Good News! Ray Sharpton is doing GREAT! He just called me this morning. He sounded a little surprised to know that we were all asking about him. (gotta love modesty ) He said to say "hi" to everyone. His webtv is broken and costs too much to fix, so he's holding out hoping to find another SONY (can't be Philips or any other brand ) WebTV. He asks that if anyone finds one, you please let him know. His schedule has changed to Fri., Sat., and Sundays, but he's home the rest of the week.

There are LOADS of Sony WebTV units on Ebay for around $50. There is even one for $40 that ends in about 5 minutes. What price is Ray willing to pay and what model is he looking for?

<font face="comic sans ms"> Ray just called me, too. I don't have a whole lot to add to what Tia said other than I told him that I was just about ready to send the Atlanta Police to his door to do a welfare check. I told him not to wait so long before he contacts us again. He said he's not much of a phone person. He is planning on coming back to The Dis, and he is going to attend Dis-Con II.

I'm so relieved. {insert relieved smilie here} </font>

Great news!!! I'm soooo glad he's OK!

I just bought him a used Sony WebTV on ebay. Can someone tell me how to get ahold of Ray to find out where to send the darn thing???

The seller will let me use PayPal to pay for it and has offered free shipping, so I would like to have it sent directly to Ray. I have his address at home, but I would like to confirm where he would like it sent.

<font face="comic sans ms"> That's so sweet of you, John. Hang on and I will e-mail you his phone number. </font>

WOW! Great news is just oozing out of this thread! I'm so glad Ray's ok. What a huge relief! He called here and I missed him. But he left a nice message on the answering machine. It was nice to hear his voice.
John, that was so nice of you to do that. I'm sure Ray will be thrilled! And, we'll all be happy to see him back here with us again!!
What a great bunch we are!!

 

[disneycub]

What a relief! I've called off the mounted police (Robinrs).

 

[NancyIL]

That was so thoughtful of you, John! I'm glad to hear that Ray is fine. It's great that people here look out for each other.

 

[janette]

Thanks Tia & Dayna! I'll have a much better day now!

 

[Robinrs]

Mounted police called off!!

I guess they must've thought I was some kind of parole officer or creditor calling asking to speak to him at Northside!! The guy was very evasive...

Ray, don't you do this to us again!!

Now if I can just get a 60 inch HDTV Plasma screen i might be able to get on the boards more

 

[Towncrier]

No problem Patrick (seeing as how I now work for a division of Philips). How would you like that sent?

 

[Patinmn]

Oops..see message below

 

[Patinmn]

John why don't you just run it up here yourself...it would be great ot see you again.


Of course if you can have it here by 5pm on sunday for kick-off that would be great.

I am so glad Ray is ok...that is a relief. John what an incredible thing to do.You have a wonderfully huge heart. But I knew that already! hugs to you and your sweetie!

Pass the Kleenex. You guys are the most wonderful, caring people I have ever met.

Speaking of high-definition Philips plasma.....John, I'd like one too!

This will be my first Super Bowl and Olympics to watch in high definition. Hmmmm...Kurt Warner on hi-def? What could possibly be better than that?

Never mind.
