paul secor Posted March 13, 2014 Report Posted March 13, 2014 alocispepraluger102 hasn't posted for a month. Does anyone know if he's ok? I know that he's had somehealth problems in the past. Quote
JSngry Posted March 13, 2014 Report Posted March 13, 2014 Have not heard, but sincerely hope that all is well. Quote
sonnymax Posted March 13, 2014 Report Posted March 13, 2014 He continues to post elsewhere on the web, including his own blog. Perhaps he was offended by the feedback he received about his excessive posts about things that were of little interest to most members. Quote
Scott Dolan Posted March 13, 2014 Report Posted March 13, 2014 I'd bet money on it, Sonny. I thought some of the comments were unnecessarily mean, but that's just my opinion. I don't think he meant for his posting habits to upset others. Quote
JSngry Posted March 13, 2014 Report Posted March 13, 2014 I always enjoyed his posts. Off-beat, yeah, sometimes, but I'm not one to see that as a "problem"...more like a plus, actually. Common is....common. Quote
Scott Dolan Posted March 13, 2014 Report Posted March 13, 2014 Yeah, he always struck me as a nice cat. I hope he is well, also. Quote
AllenLowe Posted March 13, 2014 Report Posted March 13, 2014 Jerry is a wonderful guy; those comments were completely unnecessary and unfair and very petty. Quote
BillF Posted March 13, 2014 Report Posted March 13, 2014 Very nice guy. When he read my comment that I'd have to get up at 3 a.m. to hear Lazaro Vega's radio show, he mailed me discs covering hours of the show. Quote
JSngry Posted March 13, 2014 Report Posted March 13, 2014 I dug the cat's photography, for real. Quote
Guy Berger Posted March 13, 2014 Report Posted March 13, 2014 Nice guy and I have to say his seemingly indefatigable positive attitude was refreshing on this board, we sometimes get a little too jaded and snarky. Quote
porcy62 Posted March 13, 2014 Report Posted March 13, 2014 Since I found most of the posts here too difficult or scholarly for a jazz "amateur" like me, Jerry's ones are a must when I visit the forum. Quote
BbM7 Posted March 13, 2014 Report Posted March 13, 2014 I miss his posts and photos too. If anyone's in contact, maybe a link to this thread could be sent, or a note. I assume he wasn't exiled or anything. Quote
.:.impossible Posted March 13, 2014 Report Posted March 13, 2014 I must have missed something. Why would anyone complain about aloc? Quote
jazzbo Posted March 13, 2014 Report Posted March 13, 2014 Nice guy and I have to say his seemingly indefatigable positive attitude was refreshing on this board, we sometimes get a little too jaded and snarky. WORD Quote
paul secor Posted March 13, 2014 Author Report Posted March 13, 2014 I miss his posts and photos too. If anyone's in contact, maybe a link to this thread could be sent, or a note. I assume he wasn't exiled or anything. I sent him a PM with a link to this thread - don't have an e-mail for him. I hope that he receives it and reads the good words about him. Quote
alocispepraluger102 Posted March 13, 2014 Report Posted March 13, 2014 Hi folks. thx for the kind thoughts. Things are fine here. The days just aren't long enough to indulge all of our interests. Here is hoping things are OK in your lives. I will browse the forums this weekend and share a thought or two. No hard feelings or thin skin on this end. Quote
Scott Dolan Posted March 14, 2014 Report Posted March 14, 2014 (edited) Hi folks. thx for the kind thoughts. Things are fine here. The days just aren't long enough to indulge all of our interests. Here is hoping things are OK in your lives. I will browse the forums this weekend and share a thought or two. No hard feelings or thin skin on this end.Let me tell you something, Jerry. There is no thin skin involved. Even those with the thickest skin would have been disheartened by some of the rude and disrespectful things that were said. Like many here, I'm glad the bat signal reached you and that you chose to check in. (special thanks to Mr. Secor) Now, do us all a favor and stick around. Please? You've been missed. Hey, if nothing else, help us help you piss off the self-righteous fucks who shit on you. You've got a lot of good people, and me, in your corner. Post on, my brother!

Tom 1960 Posted March 14, 2014 Report Posted March 14, 2014 Jerry is ok by me. He once burned me the Jazz Profiles program on WKCR which featured 5 hours of the music of Frank Strozier. Quote
Dave Garrett Posted March 14, 2014 Report Posted March 14, 2014 The days just aren't long enough to indulge all of our interests. Truer words were never spoken. I will never understand those who frequently claim to be bored; life's too short for that. Quote

Daniel A Posted March 14, 2014 Report Posted March 14, 2014 Even those with the thickest skin would have been disheartened by some of the rude and disrespectful things that were said. ... Now, do us all a favor and stick around. Please? You've been missed. Hey, if nothing else... In the light of your first paragraph, the one that starts with "Hey..." comes across as a bit rude in itself. I'm sure no offence was intended. However I think most of us (myself included) have something to learn from the thoughtful attitude of Mr Aloc himself. Quote
