Sammy, I have been pretty busy and haven't taken the time to call you yet, but please know that Sherri and I are cheering loudly for you!
As many of you already know, Sam is a very special friend to me, my wife, and a lot of other folks around the planet. I was there when he tipped the bike but I am unable to be onhand to visit or help other than donating $$$$$. I want to express huge thanks to Cal, Bill, Jonathan, and all who are able to be there in person and provide feedback on the ole Bird's condition as well as all who have donated to the recovery fund. Also special thanks to Russ for generously contributing the RC T-shirts for inspiration.
The madScientist's generous contribution this morning has inspired me to make a special offer to help fund Sam's recovery and all the related medical and travel expenses. I have already made a contribution but am willing to go a bit more.
I do not have any T-shirts to hand out but I will match every individual $50 donation made in the next 48 hours, deadline 7/5/2014 11:00 CST, dollar for dollar. You give $50, I give $50.
The madScientist's donation this morning already counts. Come on guys and gals, let's do all we can to help both in spirit as well as financially. Post them up in this thread to inspire others.
Keith
