One of own, Uncle Bear, needs our help.

I want to preface this post by stating that I’ve been working on it since I read Berin’s personal Blog post this afternoon.  While working on this post I came across this item over at The Bone Scroll.  I want to ask forgiveness from the network for throwing this onto the feed.

I have been following Uncle Bear over at his site and his social network over at Ning since 2007.  I am proud to be one of his Dire Paladins.  It was Uncle Bear’s inspiration that caused me to shift from posting exclusively at the Cafe and branching out on my own.  I have never met the man face-to-face but I consider him one of my best friends.

Right now he should be on cloud 9 but isn’t.  His passion is bearing fruit but his passion is not meeting his and his lovely wife’s needs.  I know the economy sucks right now and I won’t bore you with my own trials and tribulations.  Those of you who frequent my blog know what I’m going through and I hope that you all will jump on board with this.  My grandfather once cautioned me about feeling despondent, “I thought I was bad shape because I had no shoes, until I met the man with no feet.”

I must have written and rewritten this article 10 times.  I’m having difficulty articulating this.  Berin would NEVER come out and ask for our help.  That said, I am in agreement with the Bonemaster.  I have benefited from Berin’s kindness, praise, and his postings.  I would like to do something to help him out.

Berin we want to Help.  How can we do it?
