Hey all...sorry to have missed you guys this year. Some might remember me, I am Mickey Bogden's buddy/pit crew. He sure had a great time winning this year. I am sad to report that last Monday evening Mick had a stroke. He is in the hospital, with his right side affected. He has his own personal physical therapist...his daughter...and hopes to be back wrenching in a couple of months. He has never been very good on a computer, so he will now be even harder to get a hold of. Snail mail works:

We certainly missed you this year and hope you will be back soon. Sorry to hear about Mickey's medical problem. The miracle of modern medicine can do wonders now. I suspect he'll be back at it soon. Give him my kindest regards and a hope for a complete and speedy recovery. Chuck

Tom. Thanks for the update on Mickey. It’s hard to picture him having a stroke considering how good he looked at Columbus and his ‘bubbly’ positive attitude. Pass on to him that we are praying for a speedy recovery for him.
