Posting it here because many may not read that thread often. I would expect that many of you have the same best wishes for his recovery....We are pulling for you Blake.

    Hopefully he doesn't mind me posting this but, I texted him earlier. Hes ok for the most part. Said hes been up all night doing breathing treatments, and is waiting for a pulmonary specialist.

    That's potentially very serious. Hang tough dude!

    BBQ is a celebration of culture in America. It is the closest thing we have to the wines and cheeses of Europe. 

    Drive a few hundred miles in any direction, and the experience changes dramatically.

    we had an emergency room visit not a while back.  i think my wife'da been freaked out a little if fishlessman came rushing in asking for updates for the forum's sake....


    i'm sure he has friends here of course, but maybe best to just hang tight and let him weigh in later, as he said he would
    Thats probably fair, I would be freaked out too if he came for a visit.
