If you miss Mike, go to that page and you will see lots (and I mean lots!) of him! ;-) !

I'm pretty sure Mike said he was going away for a couple of weeks?


I checked all his posts and didn't find anything to that effect. The last post he made was 3/26. Even when he goes to Hawaii he still manages to say something.

I've been looking for the post and can't find it but I'm sure he said it, (in the last somewhat heated thread that he was contributing to). I have a recollection of him saying something about trying to keep up with us on an iPad?

Perhaps I have it wrong and I'm thinking of someone else? I hope he is OK.

He has just posted on FB promoting a couple of bookings he has for his photo booth. So he is still around, I have been talking to him and he says the booth is taking a lot of his time.

Jeff, can you elaborate? I can't picture him sitting in a kiosk in a parking lot, printing other people's pictures.


He just takes the gear, sets it up at a venue, (wedding, company party, birthday party, Barmitzva, Graduation party, whatever) and two hours later takes it home along with $500, obviously more lucrative than 38c/ image

I noticed he was no longer posting, but found the forums enjoyable once again. Early on, I found him obnoxiously lovable, but lately he seemed to go way too far. Hope he comes back as his former self, as I do miss him.

It certainly is very quite without the laddie boy. I hope everything is okay. The photo booth idea sounds interesting. I could make a killing charging $20 for a photo with the Easter bunny.

Spent a hour Skyping with Mike earlier on today, he has done 20 jobs and has all the way through June booked up which is good for him, but bad for us as we had planned a road trip in June, guess I will be making it on my own unless someone else wants to join in?

I'm happy he's been busy with his photo machine, but I do miss his sense of humor around here. The quiet is getting eerie ;-)

Yep. I can see how he'd be enjoying it and the people. ;-)

So when Mike is here they want him gone, and when he is gone, they want him back, and when he is back, they jump him again to quit? ;-) j/k
