Well
What a lunch date I had to day, I met with Chris and his wife my Amigos (Novadiecast), Robin and Bob (rolyat1955), Tom and his Fiance Judy (a76marine). We had such a great time. During our Lunch The restaurant received a call from a person I never met, He asked to speak to Rudy or Z-Man I think it was Andrew but I am not sure if it was this this person. Anyway this person made me cry he called a person he never even met to tell him me (Z-Man)to hang in there and that I can beat this Cancer. He really made my day. It was a very special day any way because I had friends who have traveled 3 hrs just to see me before I have this Chemo starting tomorrow. I just want to say thank you to JonnyB for starting this site, If it wasn't for this site I would not have as many friends because all I do is work. This site has helped me out a lot. Thank you all who are on this site. I know Robin has takes Photos and she will post later.

Thank you all

Rudy Da Z-MAn

I was very touch by your call today at the restaurant it was funny because a lot of people do not know what I do at work and some times I can not tell any one for certain reasons as per the Government. Low and behold one of the Employees came to the table and said I had a VIP Phone call in the kitchen.

My Eyes and every one head just turned all I could do is say Yea Right. Then they said hurry up take the call. You remind me of my self because I did the same think you did today about a year ago when SindyDix's son Kiddos came home from the war. I called him to say thank you for what he did for us all in the war. You my friend a a very special friend as all of the other HHr members on this site.

Thanks again

Rudy

Rudy... again, it was great to see you and to have you in such great spirits. If I am ever faced with anything of the magnitude you are facing I can only hope to be half as strong as you are being.

On behalf of everyone who couldn't make it, have no fear we talked about most of you.

Lol... was a great afternoon of fun, food, fun, memories and more fun.

Hey Pucci's 2 is already in the making, just give me some E-85 Fuel time to get better, I promise there will be a Pucci's 2 or a Boat cruise at Navy Pier.

Thank you both for coming

Your Z-Man
