Big O Needs Help

My friends,

I am writing because I can use your help. On Dec 3rd, 2007 , I felt strange and went to the hospital. After 8 hours in the ER and a week of every test known to man and alien, it was determined that I had a STROKE!... No blockages, or clots, or cholesterol or broken veins or arteries…I somehow injured a vein in the back of my head (due to work?). That, combined with high blood pressure, thickened my blood and the vein constricted and closed long enough to do the damage! My speech, reasoning and memory were fine, but the stroke left my left arm and leg about 98% paralyzed!

I spent the next 4 weeks in a rehab facility…Getting stronger and re-learning how to function and use me arm and leg again! 2008 has been a painful and trying year! 2 days a week of rehab and a lot of patience, waiting for the exercise and time nature take it’s course. Boredom and not being able to work has been as difficult for me as learning to re-use my arm and leg! I am now up to about 45% in each limb.

Needless to say this has put an enormous financial strain on me. I thought about starting a pay site, but I have already put so many clips and photos out there for free! So I am swallowing my pride and asking for donations…To help keep me afloat and continue to bring you clips an compilations. I feel bad about this, but my finances are stretched very thin these days. Any amount would help, and if you can’t send money a few prayers and well wishes will do.

Any donations can be sent to:

Robert Griffith
3925 Riverton Ave #214
Studio City , CA 91604

Or to my Paypal Account:

RGriff1935@aol.com

Thank you again and hopefully time and therapy will get me back to normal in the not too distant future…

Sincerely Robert Griffith aka "Big O"

So I would appreciate it if some of you all can help him where you can.

Big O, I've enjoyed our occasional conversations over e-mail, and I've defintely enjoyed your compilations (for free). I'm sending you a check today. Sorry that it isn't for more, but I presume that every little bit helps. I just multipled everyone of your compilations I download and multiplied it by $5...

Good news for you, Big O. I'm not sure exactly how many, but certainly 40 or so...

I really appreciate your putting titles on your compilations. I've got this big set of clips that I've put into DVD collections myself, as well as a data base of interesting clips, but too many of them still have the dreaded "unknown" on them. I could identify some of the ones on your recent "unknown" collections, by the way. Did you get many titles identified yet?

Finally, I hope that more than a few of us are contributing to your cause. You've shared a huge amount of material and work with us, and it would have cost an arm and a leg in normal circumstances. It's the least we can do.
