Sorry to hear this. Just because you are not going to brew for a while does not mean you can't stop by and say hi. You are a part of this family, don't totally desert us.

So sorry to hear. Like FIT said, just because you don't brew doesn't mean you can't help out. You've got a lot of knowledge that we all learn from. I hope you decide to stick around and offer your help when you can.

Dude, DO NOT STAY AWAY! I'm giving you non-doctors orders. Even priests can admire women, right? So, come and go as you please and please, please take care of yourself.

Yeah, I don't think that's on their "ok to do" list for priests... Lusting?

God made women who are a thing of beauty so yes, even priests can admire women as well as cars, shoes and bees.

Back to Bob, how is your health and are you allowed to have beer?

Bob, it would be a disaster if you didn't check in to help us all out, contribute where you can, and just be part of the Borg. I don't care if you're brewing anything or not; please stick around. Please.

Bob, you have helped me/us since our MB days, your brewing wisdom has been great. If you have to leave so be it, but I among others would really miss you. Even if you aren't brewing you could still check in. As FIT said you are family... Good luck on where ever the life road takes you

If ya gotta, ya gotta. However, I do not see why not being able to brew for now. Should keep you from visiting, when you can. You've been assimilated, you are :borg: you can't just leave.

I think I understand. When gout and celiac among other things were hitting me hard and I couldn't drink any beer, and didn't feel well so didn't brew any either, it was oddly painful to be around what I missed so much. Bob, take care of yourself, and I hope things get better for you and you can return to what you love doing. I'm sorry you're going through this.

I'm going to miss your presence as well. I hope you can stop by and just say Hi once in a while. And I hope your health improves.

Bob, hope to see you around from time to time as in the next week or so I will be on the sparse side as well with the move, and although I dont have the health issues <YET> I will be way too busy learning the art of large scale wine making as well as land management. My posts will probably be little more than a "hi" as will be unable to keep up with the topics, and ever if I could my brewing will most likely be limited to using up all the MrB and BD HMEs I picked up just for this very reason as they take about 20 minutes from start to finish so if need be I can get one in while partaking my Sunday night ritual of watching an episode of The Simpsons. With that in mind, I hope to see this not as a "goodbye" but a "smell ya later."

Sorry to hear that Bob. As others have said, swing by here when you can. If you can't brew, it's still a pretty good place to come and vent as to why you can't brew. Lots of willing ears around here. Take care and best of luck to you.
