Steinar, please keep your spirits up. So sorry to hear that shoulder pain led to hospitalization. Stay strong my friend. We all look forward to hearing your music for years to come. Your friendship has meant more to me than I ever took time to tell you. Best of luck in having a good outcome from this life experience.

Salmenes

En salme av David. Herren er min hyrde, mig fattes intet.

Han lar mig ligge i grønne enger, han leder mig til hvilens vann.

Han vederkveger min sjel, han fører mig på rettferdighets stier for sitt navns skyld.

Om jeg enn skulde vandre i dødsskyggens dal, frykter jeg ikke for ondt; for du er med mig, din kjepp og din stav de trøster mig.

Du dekker bord for mig like for mine fienders øine, du salver mitt hode med olje; mitt beger flyter over.

Bare godt og miskunnhet skal efterjage mig alle mitt livs dager, og jeg skal bo i Herrens hus gjennem lange tider.

Hello Steinar. Wishing you a speedy recovery so that you can get back to making those fantastic videos I've learned so much from.

First off, my thanks goes out to Mike Neer (& Brad) for bringing this to everyone's attention.

Secondly -- Steinar, citing the oft-cliched saying about how a man's wealth is measured by the number of friends he has, this forum provides ample proof that you're a rich man indeed.

Get well soon, brother, we need you back out here on the front lines!

All the best,

John

Mike Neer · Post by **Mike Neer** » 28 Dec 2011 8:57 am
