    I like to think I have made a few friends over the years here on "Ferrari Chat" and want to share some good news so here it goes....

    When I moved to Marlin, TX to become a deputy sheriff back in 2010 I stayed at a motel for a month while my shack/apt was being renovated. Anyway the gentleman who runs the motel and I became the best of friends, peas and carrots so to speak, and he is now battling cancer. He has lived a hard life but his heart is as big as Texas but he never received SS for various reasons. Cutting to the chase he just received ALL his 'back pay' in the amount of $44K! We are going to take a trip together in the near future and laugh and smile at each other. The destination has yet to be determined. He will be staying with me soon for a few days. His two dogs and my two dogs should be a complete and utter mess and PITA lol!

    We just talked and I think I am happier for him than he is for himself, he is truly deserving.

    Thank you. He is good people and deserves some sort of acknowledgement. I believe when we rejoice and appreciate the people who make us better people the "man upstairs" notices, can't hurt.
