Conservative blogger and Vietnam veteran Mad Jack has been a solid figure and strong voice on many conservative websites since the Age of O’Bozo began back in roughly 2009. He was one of the very first regulars on Diogenes Middle Finger, and he’s kept the comments flowing on iOwnTheWorld.com and iOTWReport.com for just about as long. Somewhere during that time he also showed up at Adrienne’s Place and Proof’s and Odie’s and the Earl’s and Curmudgeon’s and Dianny’s and many more, including this one.
Well, Jack’s not going anywhere, but you may have noticed that he’s not as prolific as he has been in the past, and there’s a reason for the recent slow-down. Jack’s health has been suffering lately, and he’s been diagnosed with cancer. In fact, he goes into the doctor later today to find out how advanced the condition is.
In the mean time, please join me in praying for the gentleman and his good wife, who is not so happy about the situation, either. We await your update in the next few days, Jack, and I look forward to buying you a king-sized burger and a beer just as soon as possible, especially if we get to celebrate some good news! God bless you, Sir!
Monte thanks so much, I appreciate it greatly.
As I posted on 4GFC… prayers outbound.
BTW, are you the same MadJack from Weasel Zippers?
I believe he is, but I can’t be sure. (He’ll chime in later, I expect.) I’ve always had a hard time following comments over there, and the threads are deleted after a while. That’s a shame, ’cause they’re good threads!
This is my email, bieneinparadise at g mail dot com. Can you email me, when it’s convenient? Thanks. BV
Of course, Bee. Message sent. I’m assuming you mean me, and I’ll send that right out. If you meant to ask Jack, please let me know!
barnslayer, yes I am the one and same. Thank you for the prayers.
The Big C is a nasty sucker, but beatable. I shall pray for you and the nurses and doctors and all those with whom you will come in contact. Huge blessings for your lady wife. I wish you a deep and abiding peace, Sir. Biene Vallee
Trailbee, thank you much.
Jack: Grunt says if you don’t get better soon, you’re going to be “Mildly Irritated Jack” and not “Mad Jack”. We can’t have that! Here’s hoping for a good prognosis!
Thanks Proof. If we could get Ted Cruz as pres in 2016 I’d be HappyHappyJack.
Thank you all! Dangit Monte I think you’ve told the whole world. 🙂
Yeah, he probably has…most likely because he cares deeply for his friends.
Prayers are going up from here, too… for you, your family; and for those who are trusted to care for you medically.
Solaratov, thank you so much!
