Good to see you too Tim, I guess your sign-in stopped working too.
"Don't take the cynicism by some here personally."
When it comes to my friends, especially those that die in a freak and tragic accident, yeah, I take things personally. To Firemon, this is just another "Negril Story" about another "Negril Character".
My friends were at PeeWees that Valentines Day celebrating their anniversary while the party next door raged on. They called me at 3:00am with the news. It was the first of seven deaths that year in my tribe that rocked my world.
I'll attempt to put a face to the "character" - Peter McIntosh, aside from running a wildly successful business in Negril was dedicated to the whole concept of "Wild Thing" - it was a boat who's purpose was only for everyone to have a great time. He treated his entire staff impeccably from his right-hand-woman to the guys that worked on the boat. He was a generous contributor to the community and took care of his friends and neighbors personally. In short - he had a heart of gold. He also had a great sense of adventure and an even better sense of humor.
He was a lovely man, a good friend - and all these years later, we still miss him.
He'd probably be the first to tell me to "lighten up" actually....he died as he lived...fast and furious.
Bless up Peter. Say hi to Gregg for me.
