Has anyone heard from JOLLYELM in awhile???

Nice to see the concern for a liked forum member. It does seem he had some (serious?) health concerns as indicated by a post earlier this year.

I didn't remember that. That's not a good sign.

Yikes. I have not been active on the whole enough lately to have realized, but sure hope Darren is ok. My google results on what is probably a fairly common name in California are not turning up anything one way or the other. If anyone finds anything please keep us posted.

Hope you are out there still shaking your head over OC's vs. straight grade slabs somewhere, Jolly!

Darren contacted me a while ago. He has had some health issues, and other things, but is trying to get back into it. He said he will try to post soon.

Great to hear that he's not incarcerated ...Hope he's feeling better soon.

Man, it was nice to see the concern for me here. I really appreciate it!! Of course, I ain’t no fool, so I know some members were hoping my torch had been snuffed. Sorry to disappoint.

But I will say, if my current health/life condition was put into a slab by our Newport Beach overlords, I would probably only come back a PSA 4 (or perhaps a half point bump to a 4.5) right now. However, I can see a grade of a 7 or 8 in the near future (knock on cardboard!).

Shout out to Bobby: Be honest, if I was gone, your life would improve greatly. Is there anyone else even remotely as annoyingly involved with your group-sub efforts than me??? I think not.

The good(?) news is I’ve been working on some stuff, so there will be some updates to my entertaining (your opinion may vary) “Collectorisms” and “Grading Has Clouded Our Minds” threads, so stay tuned.

Thanks again to everybody who reached out here and through PMs and whatnot. Truly awesome!!

Glad to hear it Darren, keep up the good work terrorizing Bobby and best of luck on your recovery.

Yeah, but as we all know, there's quite a range of eye appeal within the technical grades. Do you think you'd be a PSA 4 PWCC-PQ? PWCC-HE? Purple Sticker?

I for one say THANK GOD! I love this forum, and just to frankly say it, cliche as it might be, it would not be the same without you!
