Yes, (for those who can't wait to say something mean here,) I understand the level of the masses' understanding...in his area...but he has found a way to promote himself in a large area, and the "reporter" was able to reach them on their level...("no clue" how this is done.)
And wow! Your phone number is bold in the article!
AND...he bought 3 signs from you...
on the spot...no return trips for one check!!!!
And geez!!!!! He mentioned all the ways you could compete with your more "geographically stabilized" (...sometimes inconvenient...hmmm) competition!
I would hope the readers can appreciate how incredible it would be, that you would even consider, taking on their work!
Joe, the heavens have rained upon you and I don't even know if you realize how much!
You have been a very dear friend to me over the years, and I loved to "sit-at-your-feet" and listen to your wonderful stories, and knowledge of health related "ancient knowledge!"
I read another post, patting Mark Fair on the back. One of the thousands of reasons I respect this fine gentlemen of the south, is...he introduced the idea of patting others on the back to those of us, at each others' throats!
Yawl remember the post that asked Mark how he could have the audacity to judge others? He was applauding others and I was ashamed to think that one of the whole I was connected to could not recognize that and applaud without a fist.
Damned straight, I'm gonna pat Mark on the back and everybody else that gets the nurturing concept across to others! I have children on this planet.
Dislodge all dying assemblage points, with some freakin compassion...sheesh!
The turn around time on the general understanding of this and finally it catching on with others, is a "scenic speed" at best.
However, I am elated to see it catch on and I have to support it by patting someone on the back, (besides spyke, hahaha!)
Most of you have an image of Joe being some dirty old man with crooked letters.
(Yes, I am one who's butt he slapped at a meet! And yes, I have a reputation for totin' a 9mm pistol around...coz it's not as hard to mop up after...hehehe!)...with his name on one of the bullets!)
Yes! We play a lot on chat...but that chat, amongst my real friends, has saved my life over the years...the goofy laughter, especially! I have danced over my 6th and worst bout of cancer, ...and I have to thank the special ones when I get a chance to!
Mark showed me the kinda of work that should be coming out of our shops. He invited some of the best quill operators and gold huffers I've seen...in person!
Joe has showed us how to throw ourselves faithfully to the wolves and do it in love!
...And get lots of blessings from it
...ask Jon Buterworth about faith in your dream!...her name is Sue.
Joe, I'd high-five ya if you were close enough.
Much Admiration, DrQuill

I am so sorry Joey! I have to thank you too!
I think we should do a lot of that around here!
Ask Katy, if she likes being encouraged whilst she fights her teenage battles of self-esteem, high school, sibling rivalry, identity crisis, and Lord help any boys that get in her way!
I've been encouraged and I know how precious that is to most of us. I like it!
A giant pat on the back to any body who can process pure thoughts and make things happen!
And for the famous guy who hates these freakin smiley faces...nah...I can't do it.
I could, but for right now, I can be nice!

I thought you were promoting the State of Maine (ME) on this post. I see you found long-lost Uncle Bob down there in FL. He's still in the newpaper business, huh. The whole family was pretty sure he was down there. I won't tell Aunt Edna where he is...she's pretty content with his brother, Frank anyway.
Seriously though, nice article for a great guy. Keep hustlin' and we'll see ya at another meet.
