throughout my time here, i've had some of the most meaningful conversations with Asip. Words cannot even express how happy i am to have got to know him. i kind of feel guilty, because he helped me SOOO much, and i didn't take the time to ask him about himself much. i hope he doesn't hold that against me, i don't think he does, and that illustrates the kind of guy he is. a guys' guy.

imagine you feel like you are falling. and in your mind, you can 'picture' a BUMP when you hit the ground...

...and then, all of a sudden, as you close your eyes HARD and clench your body, and as you make contact with the surface, you feel as soft cushion, and your fall is broken, and you spring back up in the air, floating around like you wear before



well, that's the best analogy i can come up with, in terms of describing what Asip really means to me. he played a HUGE part in that spring that lifted me when i was down.

and for that, i will be thankfull forever.........


thx, friend
