I continue to be humbled by all the appreciative replies in this thread. I thank all of you who have taken the time to express your gratitude.

I'd also like to announce that I'm hopeful and in the beginning stages of securing employment in the very near future. I'm not at liberty to say more at this time. This made this Thanksgiving one to be truly thankful for. A special thanks to all of you who included me in your prayers. It appears that they have been answered. :)

i am so happy for you, sweetie. i hope this job comes thru for you and that you love it!

Even though I've been vaping for 4.5 years, I still come back to see what Baditude has to say about something I've either forgotten or want to venture into some new vaping adventure.

Bad, not sure if you realize how you've helped this very senior woman get to where she is today with vaping but please know you've been a true asset in my vaping journey!

At 73 it's never too late to learn, even though I need to read your tutorials a bit more slower these days.......

A true mentor in every sense of the word!

You are definitely one of my blessings this Thanksgiving holiday!

WoW! I guess I'm late to the party LOL!
I wanted to chime in to say I also think Baditude is an awesome guy!

I hope that job comes through for you! My husband was laid off when he was in his late 50s and had to start all over too so I know how hard it is..

If you're anything in real life as you are on here... you're going to be a great asset to any employer!

I'm not sure if most people here know, but our beloved Baditude isn't in a very good place in his life right now...and he needs our help!

I'm new to this forum, and I'm not really sure how to start this...but I'd love to be able to help him out!

Please, if you have any ideas(something simple like Paypal), let's talk and make it happen!

It's the time for giving, and if we all gave a little, it would add up quick.

PM me, post on here, whatever...let's just get it done!

Add me to the list of honoring Baditude. Because of you, Baditude, I have my perfect setup. Keeping fingers crossed that you will secure that job.......wish you could print out all these posts and add it to your resume so these companies could see what an asset you would be to them. Wishing you all the best in return for all your help and knowledge and willingness to educate us.

OK everyone, I'm speaking with Baditude right now, but I'm not sure how much longer he's going to have internet access(I have his phone number too). Right now, anyone who wishes to make a "donation" to help Baditude out, please PM me. I'll be on here until at least 2200 tonight, and back on first thing in the morning. I'll be keeping records of all who help, and I promise that help will be greatly appreciated! You don't come to a forum like this, make 13k posts that are extremely helpful...just to scam people. HE NEEDS OUR HELP!

Thank you very much in advance!

Just to update everyone, I have a PM in to jOker and classwife, asking if I can start a new thread asking the forum if they would like to help Baditude in his time of need. Until I hear back, I'm not going to collect any money...as I would feel obligated to return it if the request gets shot down. In the mean time, if you want to help, PM me and I'll put you on the list...and I'll keep you up to date as to the outcome.

I'm not sure how much longer Baditude will have internet access, but I have multiple numbers to reach him in case we lose touch on here.

I also promise, if this happens, I will personally make sure there is a list of "helpers" made, and Baditude will receive every cent that is donated.

Thanks everyone!!

I just got the PM and sent you a message. I am in tears and so angry I can't see straight. I don't understand how the world can be this way. How people like Bad, who give selflessly and have so much value, are allowed to fall through the cracks.

You and me both, Miss other Kitty. I reacted with complete sadness and anger. :( :grr:
I haven't stopped thinking about this for most of the day.

A huge thank you to you, BTD. I know we'll all be anticipating word from classwife and/or J0ker, and I like the idea of starting a new thread. I would be more than happy to assist you in this, every step of the way.

Here's to Bad!
