Can you edit and rephrase this sentence? My heart stopped when I first read and misunderstood. Looked like Markos posted the passing of Stevehose!!! Covid - paranoia

 

[rsporsche]

sorry for the scare Stan ... its edited. come on Steve, post a few more + don't let Markos pass you

I'm alive and well, COVID would have to pry the Petri from my hands! Well deserved for Markos!

Steve you missed a great opportunity, as W.C. Fields said - “The news of my death is greatly exaggerated.”

All three probably said it. "The news of my death..."

Haha! I blame COVID-19 on my recent posting spike. I’ve done next to nothing on my car during this “down time”.

As long as the new people understand that there
is no relationship between post count and experience/knowledge - then we are in good shape. It is just as likely that I will never finish my coupe as it is likely that I will. I am technical and detailed but I struggle to start projects and to finish them. Time will tell how successful I am at making this e9 thing happen. That means is that my post count will likely blow through the roof
while I putz around with my garage hog.

but I struggle to start projects and to finish them

I have no problem starting projects. It is the finishing part that gets me.

Don’t get me wrong, I start and slowly finish lots and lots of projects. My auto project success rate is lackluster though.
