    If I can be of any help with his bike, or if he is stuck in hospital for a while and needs visitors to pass the time then send me a PM.

    Good Luck.

    I do think however, helpin Sean is better motivation for folk than seein pictures of me fur-less.
    Oh I don't know...there is a certain sick appeal in it
    Heck, I managed to help in getting Mandownunder's head shaved, so I'll give this challenge a crack

    It's not a "how can we help Sean" thread, it's "this is how we're helpin him, who's with us".
    That's why I posted what I did...was only trying to help, as I could see this thread turning into a "fraudsters on KB" topic. Funnily enough, it's not the first time I am involved in a fund raiser like this one.

    I'm very glad it's back to being about helping Sean...As you were!

    Drew, I've already PMd when I can send some $...talk to you again next week re: payment.

    Love you guys' work.

    IMHO Flame and Drew (and everyone else helping out) are gems

    We don't have much in the Monsters Inc coffers but we will be contributing to Skels fund. I see this as a rare opportunity help a good person whose in a bad place with a simple (for me) yet meaningful gesture.

    AND it has been left open for people to give/offer whatever they are able to. Well done guys - this community does make me proud to be part of sometimes

    It really would be nice if we could all have a 'rainy day rescue' for everything but sometimes we have to make calculated gambles and sometimes rainy day rescues still fall short anyway.

    Best of health and healing to Sean - the support on here is testament to him and the person that he is.

    I think we get the chicks drunk and let them loose with some spray cans. Do you think Skel you like a 60's peace Mille?

    The other cars late model and I'm sure their insurance will fix it before Skelstar's in any shape to deal with it.
    Some things are worth dying for, living is one of them.

    I'm with Hels on this one - why push this issue? We know now that Sean wasn't insured, but your comments were made before that came to light and I think it was a bit unnecessary. It might have been that the bike was but he himself wasn't (ie. his income - ACC are not always forthcoming with income replacement and only offer 80% in any case). Surely the sentiment of the original post was to help out someone in need in any way possible?

    I'm not in a position to be able to help financially at the moment, but I do have time on my hands, so if there's anything I can do.......
    Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way
