I read this thread for the first time shortly after IWM had posted to it. Since then I've opened it and read it at least a dozen times. Leaving each time after sitting here looking at the 'reply' box and not finding the words I wanted.

Skip's threads could have you rolling on the floor laughing, sitting here shaking your head thinking 'OMG, only STO' or provoke some deep thought with his insightful post. There were many facets to the gem of a man we knew as Skipthisone. His shining presence will be missed here at Pixies but perhaps he is that twinkling star looking down at us tonight.

These words are still not right and do not express exactly what I want. So I'll close with deepest sympathy to Skip's family and his friends 'out there' and to all of you who loved him here at Pixies. I'd give you all a big hug if I could.

Rest in Peace Skipthisone. There's nobody who can fill your clown shoes so I hope you don't mind if we put 'em on top of the Pixie mantel. Bye Mr. man. We loved you.
