14000 posts and stronger than ever!! Art, it has been an absolute pleasure to enjoy your contributions over the years. Thanks for your continued enthusiasm and leadership! PS - did you really think you could slide this milestone by us with a simple post o...
. . . there's a performance of Delius' Romance . . . . . . at the Dorothy Chandler on Sunday, April 14th. Not sure if you're a devotee of the composer, but do recall your passion for the cello. I believe this is the first local performance of any Delius c...
Now get back to work and give us 14k more. Only kidding. Thank you for all you contribute to the site. It does not go unappreciated. Have a great Sunday. Best Bill
. . . focusing on custom cue sticks, Bill. Pool was always a passion - started playing on a snooker table in the fourth grade, and always loved the game even though there were long stretches when I didn't play at all. Now, I'm back at it with a vengeance!...
You represent all that is best about the PuristS site. Thank you for all of your help, encouragement and sense of humor along the way. All the best, respo
. . . an awful lot of time and effort in making this such an inviting place to be, respo. All the credit really goes back to Thomas, who created a community where civility was more esteemed than what you owned.
. . . with Bill's Speedmasters and your Ingenieurs at the top of a very long list of vintage classics. I seem to recall we closed the place down that night - we must've talked for hours on end.
Art, Congratulations and thank you for all of your solid advise. Today you should play a little more: ( Art monitoring this week Wristscan ) Cheers, Nilo ...
Not forgetting the possibly world's greatest sign-off: "Yours cordially" ----------- Respect and deepest thanks for all of what you have done, Art - - as well as personally for me. from your friend, simple old amerix This message has been edited by amerix...
Or as we say _ Mazeltov! I alway enjoy reading your most eloquent posts. It takes a lot of time, energy and resolution to research them and your input is truly appreciated keep it up Julian
. . . your constant contributions on Wrist Scan are deeply appreciated. Many participate, but few for as long or as consistently as yourself. Gratefully, Art
My now very good friend Art was the one responsible for introducing me to PuristSPro. Because of that, I sincerely hope you don't think anything less of him. ;-)
. . . a terrific Mexican restaurant in my neighborhood, and within walking distance, too! El Rey is a terrific joint, and would be tops if they offered Dos Equis on tap. To be fair, you also managed to drag me to the foulest Mexican restaurant imaginable,...
Thanks for all the great contributions on PuristSPro, and of course your wonderful friendship over the past few years. Either hanging out at the Rainbow or Chez Jay's its always more fun with you there. Congrats Art on this milestone. Regards, ED-209
. . . leadwood-handled purpleheart cues ever made have to meet up for a match. Incidentally, my passion for pool cues is deepening. I just retrieved a Brazilian rosewood / olivewood handled cue yesterday, and ordered an amboyna burl cue similar to the one...
. . . muchas gracias , Vicente. (And yes, I'm originally from there! If only my Spanish skills were half as developed as my appetite for Mexican food . . . ) Cordialmente , Art
this place would be a much sadder place without your wit and ability to find a video for every occasion. your willingness to help, especially on the Omega forum is unsurpassed. congrats on 14k, my friend. Graham.

Aesop was right. But Art also does it in style. A pillar to The PuristS and a true Purist himself. It's been a privilege to get to know you, Art. Pity about the distance between our cities, but the internet brings us close. Looking forward to many more ye...
Dear Art. Thank you for your wit, knowledge and stewardship of WristScan and valued contribution to PuristpPro. Your knowledge of music and the ability to match the right vids to posts amazes all of us. To you next 14 K Warm Regards , dreamer
Always enjoyed your posts and contribution to this forum/community! Thank you! Congrats on a big milestone and look forward to much more of that coming in the future!
I saw you stalled at 13999 the other day and was wondering when you would tip over the mark. Many thanks for all that you do here! Always a treat to see your posts and to correspond with you -- and I will hope to meet up again in person very soon. All the...
I would like to take the opportunity of this important milestone to thank you Art for the way you share your passion and enthusiasm for nice watches. You are one of the key men that makes this space so unique. Hope to see your 15000th post soon! Thank you...
Congratulations on this milestone, Art. You've been inspiring and always a joy to read, and definitely someone I will hold responsible for influencing me on the great road onto the path of GO. Best, Richard
. . . their innate quality. My sense then was that their watches were as finely crafted as any, without layering on a veneer of prestige. Their watches, for lack of a better phrase, rang true. I feel all of us attracted to G O share the same sentiment. Co...
You most definitely make PuristsPro an even nicer and better place to be in! It has been my privilege to have been able to meet up with you a couple of times. Hopefully soon there will be another one! Thanks for all that you do! Alex
. . . that you were responsible for creating a new drink? The bounty of grapefruits at Uncle Jake's farm, combined with your gift of Alacrán, has given rise to their combination, which is now a favorite at the sea-side dive bar. Q: If grapefruit and vodka...
As Chihuahua's sound super refreshing! On another note, Alacran recently came out with their version of mezcal. Needless to say, I have one on standby just for you. :-))) Bottoms up! Alex
. . . gosh, Magnus, I'm having a hard time financing anything these days! Spending my pennies on cue sticks . . . [Brazilian rosewood and olive wood handle Denali cue, with maple and oak shafts] . . . and saving my dimes for the Omega . . . . . . you rece...
