<p>[QUOTE=&quot;RickieB, post: 1038251, member: 2486&quot;]Hello Friends:</p><p><br /></p><p>I was alerted to remarks made in a thread by a friend (member) here on CT.</p><p>I was so ammused that I had to stop by and remark on this.</p><p><br /></p><p>For those of you who would like to know, I have been out of the loop here for a couple of months and do not see that changing very much in the near future. Why am I posting this? Well for one it was just to tempting not to respond and for another, to set the record straight.</p><p><br /></p><p>1. Yes I am suffering from a form of digestive cancer and have been receiving treatments since early Summer this year. The prognosis...? At this time it is touch and go and I have another visit (operation) to make during mid to late December this year....I am working and have a semi-normal life at this time.</p><p><br /></p><p>2. Were my Banknotes fakes (as accused) why no, of course not. Everything I have ever claimed to have, I owned or still own at this time.</p><p><br /></p><p>3. I am not sure where people like &quot;jfa&quot; get their information but he/she is just plain wrong and I took offense to what was posted. One of the reasons I do not participate as I once did is due to folks like this, however, it is not the main reason that I am away from the boards. (JFA get your facts correct before you slander my or anyone elses name!!)</p><p><br /></p><p>4. I am concentrating my time and energy toward my health and family. When I receive a clean bill of health, then and only then will I begin to consider a full time return to the boards. There are simply more important issues to deal with at the moment...yes I miss posting and seeing all the cool stuff here, most of all I miss my true friends (you know who you are) here on this forum.</p><p><br /></p><p>5. The RickieB Collection at least the Large Size will no longer be intact (as of October 19th-2010). As a matter of fact I no longer have possesion of the collection at this time. I do however, have the small size collection with the exception of a few select duplicates and this will be passed down to my family in the event of my death!</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I hope this clears up all the improper postings. As mentioned before, do not expect to see me here very much. At least not in the short term...there is just to much at stake at the moment. It is my sincere wish for all you to be healthy and prosper with your collections, afterall, we are no more than mere guardians of what we collect. I hope my collection lands in the hands of many who felt the same way that I do about Banknotes.</p><p><br /></p><p>With sincere regards,</p><p><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>R.D.B&nbsp; (RickieB)</p><p><br /></p><p>P.S.&nbsp; One day...I hope to be able to return here, in a different role, not as a Collector.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
