Where’s Mex?

Probably slipped on a greasy taco and is recuperating in a Mexican hospital, will be lucky to survive that ordeal....

Read his comments but never reply. I'm over 70 myself and I find most of his stuff to be cryptic at best.

Craftsman tools today are junk. I call them 'Cracksman' tools. Just broken yet another socket yesterday. Even HF is better now plus they have a money back / replacement guarantee. Good luck returning a Cracksman tool to Lowes, now that Sears and Grabbuck is defunct.

I couldn't stand the guy, there was no discussing anything w/ him, it was his way or the hiway. He had no respect for other peoples long time experiences.
But the Mods....among others worshiped him,......each to their own.

Agreed to all the above posts - he is an interesting guy, has plenty to contribute, definitely a challenge to read. I still enjoy his posts because I like to learn. Sometimes I don't learn anything because I don't know enough about the subject, but it's still interesting.

Hope he's doing ok.

I respectfully refer to Mex as The Riddler. I always look forward to reading his posts. I hope all is well with him

I also hope all is well with Mex. I learned a lot about electricity from him, and often found myself doing further research after reading some of his posts.

I usually found his post's informative and entertaining. He's a bright guy, especially on electrical matters, but he has a painful disability he's dealing with. I get the feeling this forum has been good socializing for him. I don't think he has anyone around him down there that can talk tools and such like we do. I do hope he's well and comes back. Reading between the lines, I think he needs caregiving help, and it's much more affordable down there than up here.

I've always enjoyed his posts. Sometimes it was a challenge to decode the message, and that made it more interesting.

I hope he's doing well and soaking in the warm sun for this new year.

You have to be over 70 to understand his posts. He is like the Dennis Miller of the tech forum. I too hope he is OK.

Just before New Years day, there was some back/forth banter on a thread he started concerning Sears Craftsman. It seemed some were upset with him, concerning his posts and attitude.

I really never followed his posts, as often the subjects were of no interest to me. I always thought he was well liked, by many forum members, but in the thread I mentioned, it appeared maybe not everyone.

I'm guessing he may be taking a time out, due to some cutting comments made by others. I too, hope he is not having health issues, and would be nice if he'd let a member friend know, such as answering Don's email.

All seemed random but only a few were unintelligible IMO.
