    What’s this I hear about EASY

    So, all good things come to an end, but we will miss you.

    So lucky to be one of the east coast guys lucky enough to have stopped in from time to time and enjoyed the Saturday donut fest. I hear the gatherings may continue

    I’m from the other side of the pond. I wish there were people like Jim and his inventory, but more importantly, his knowledge over here. I have always enjoyed his posts and ‘edge’ in all his replies. I have learnt so much from just reading his posts. I hope that he continues to post here and spread his wisdom despite giving up his business.
    Thank you Jim.

    Regards

    Damn, Another of the originals calls it quits. I only bought one part from Jim, but I have always enjoyed his acerbic wit. I certainly hope he continues to add his no BS comments to this board.

    Jim might be the nicest person in the Porshe world. Next time you see him you might want to THANK him for his service. With Jim, that has a double meaning, as he is also a Vietnam vet. If you do this, I ask you to try to NOT do it in the current- PC- canned- way that most people do. Though it beats the hammering that VN vets got if the peace loving Bay Area people gave to most vets bak in the day.

    And.. Jim, THANK YOU for being such a great guy!

    I learned a lot from Jim, he will be missed as a go-to source of vast knowledge.
    Enjoy retirement Jim, and feel free to head to NY if you feel the need to get greasy again!

    Jim,
    Good for you and the Mrs!

    I suspect the only net loss here is that the price of his parts just tripled.

    Now that he's a free agent I think his shyness will dissolve and we'll get his real opinion around here.
