Welcome back Bob!! Glad your feeling better! Did you have your neck surgery? What did you have done? I am an x ray tech so I will know?? Did you have a fusion or laminectomy? What exactly was wrong? I know it was an old injury?

Just wanted to say that Bob and EPP treated me like their only customer and went WAY above and beyond even though I wasn't a high-budget project. I've never been happier as a customer with any business for anything ever. Thanks for everything, Bob!

Thanks, I really appreciate it. I was glad we could help you out.

Thanks! It has been a lot of work and I keep tweaking it everyday.

Thanks. No I haven't had neck surgery. I posted this on the first page of this thread. "I'm not sure how a bulging disc in my neck along with vertebrae that have collapsed on a nerve can heal themselves, short of a miracle, but I have been totally pain free for about a month. I've started working out again and everything feels good." I broke my neck back in the late '70's, and I started having problems with it again last year. From what I was told, when one part of the neck's vertebrae are fused together, it puts a higher load on the other vertebrae that aren't fused together, as it sort of works as a shock absorber. I went for the physical therapy route, on my first visit I could only turn my neck 35 degrees to the left side, and forty degrees to the right side. Within three weeks I could crank my neck 90 degrees to each side. My neck started feeling better within several pt visits. Bob

No, I moved everything out of the Columbia City location. We're not doing installs or tuning at this time, but that will more than likely change. Thanks! Bob

Nice Site.

Good luck with the neck. I had a ruptured C6:7 back about 5 years ago. Ended up with fusion surgery and they told me then I'd be back in surgery in 10 years. I hope not.

Looking forward to doing some business with you sometime in the future when my money tree grows some new leaves!

Thanks, I appreciate it! Hopefully I too can keep from having surgery.

Make sure you fertilize that money tree! Bob

Bob, glad to to hear you and your family are doing well. Somehow I missed the whole swap over from EPP to Brute Speed but that's great that the site is up and runing now! I knew soemthing was up when I pmed you a month or so ago and received no reply (this is not how Bob does business). Like Sharpe stated, you made me feel as if I was your only customer when we were making my transcation and when we had a warranty issue to deal with, Top Notch Customer Service. As far as the Thyroid thing goes it is very tricky but controllable. I feel it is hereditary because I have an under active, so does my mom, and both my sisters and my brother is over active. It can cause all different types of symptoms but once they get the meds straightened out she should do just fine. Good luck with your new adventure!

Thanks, I appreciate it! The thyroid is very tricky indeed, my wife's thyroid is getting undersized as her body is basically killing it. Bob

I heard EPP closed up, glad to see you're still kicking around Bob! You always gave me great service, good prices & dead-on advice. I'm sure I'll be calling you for something.....

As for the neck, I have lower back problems & there aint much like back pain. Child birth & cancer are worse from what I'm told, but that's about it. I hope you & the wife get better my friend!!!
