I wasn't upset at you for doing it... in all actuality it's a blessing in disguise becasue this exposure had rewarded me with a couple of phone calls with loan offers....

So it looks like you might be soley responsible for helping resolve this problem...

And if I cannot succesfully obtain the loan locally and are forced to take the offers via "phone call" and "PM's... to show my appreciation for your efforts and the fact that you cared... I WILL BUILD YOU A CUSTOM FITTED CUE AT NO CHARGE !

I feel it would be the very least I could do to show my sincere appreciation for your efforts...


Take care and thanks again !

Eddie,

What you are actually saying is that your life isn't worth fifteen thousand or whatever the machine is actually worth now. Think about it. You can make cues without a CNC machine but you may have a hard time making them in the can and I am pretty sure you won't be delivering any on this plane if you are dead.

I have owned several storefronts in very rough areas and the question often came up as to if I would really shoot someone for stealing a few dollars, a few hundred dollars, or a few thousand dollars. I always told the people asking that the other person set the value on their life when they tried to steal from me, I didn't. Right now you are saying your CNC is worth more than your life and freedom.

Just some food for thought. Good luck however things turn out.

It was more or less an overstatement regarding people wanting to take advantage of you and kick you while your down just to get a good deal....

I just wanted to clear the air about that aspect of it becasue my business IS my life and one is no good without the other... I'm proud of that machine, it's one of the only things I ever invested in intelligently without losing money and that's why I don't feel I should have to sell it to come up with a lousy 2500.00 by friday

As I said before coming up the money isn't so much of a problem, it's coming up with it in 4 days that has me a wee bit concerned !

Can you produce a paid in full, by you, bill of sale for the machine?

If you can read on.........

I can have someone there Thurs to pick up the machine and make the money transfer for $2500 to you. You will have 365 days from Thurs, Aug 21 2008 to return $5000 cash to me on Aug 21, 2009 for the return of the machine to you or the agreement will be considered a bill of sale for the $2500.
I want to be able to use the machine for the 365 days as part of the interest.
You will also be responsible for transporting the machine back to your shop.

These are some general guidelines to start with. Let me know.

Thank you for the offer of a FREE Eddie Wheat custom cue, but please make it for whomever helps you out financially.

(I'd be happy just to live long enough to see it made AND delivered......go on, Make My Day) :)

Yes I own the machine out right it has about 6 hrs of use on it and I paid 15k cashiers check for it !....

That removes the ambiguity of your earlier post and will make your loan quest easier than it would otherwise have been. Good luck with it.
 
And again, Smorg has the right idea!!!!!!

I'm old, I can barely walk and I'm 350 lbs. ROUND.
My custom fitted cue would look like an old moldy Donut.

Not sure how or why you would consider an offer to help correct the mans problem being a buzzard? All I wanted to do was make sure the machine was properly owned and I wasn't going to be on the hook for extended period of time. If you consider trying to help out being a buzzard, then I guess I fit the bill.
What exactly have you done to offer any help?

Not to appear coldhearted, but the one blaring question that I have is 'is this for real, or just another publicity stunt for you to raise funds for personal use, or 'advertisment'? No offence is meant by this, just an honest question. Your asking someone to deliver a huge favor, to help you out of a jam due to an obligation earned from breaking the law multiple times(your points score). You knew about this for 18 months and didn't make any payments and are now facing 5yrs. To put it bluntly, it has to offer a great return to the individual that helps, as they would be taking a big risk, especially taking into account you promised the courts, and failed to deliver on time.
If all IS true, and you're a man of your word, then I would advise taking Dave up on his offer, as he is a man of his word, and his offer contains safeguards for both of you, and you really don't have the time to F'k around.
I have been in dire straits myself, though not for the same reasons, and people have helped me sometimes and I'm forever grateful, but there have been times when I've had to take my lumps and suffer the penalties.
One last thing, if this turns out to be a sham of some sort, I wouldn't want to be in your shoes......

Yes you did......very publicly. These are the exact words:

From Eddie's MySpace page:

I refuse to goto prison becasue of court costs and I will cash in my chips and try my luck in the next life it comes to that !


You clearly threatened suicide if you don't get $2500 in the next 4 days. How else can that be interpreted?

Smorg does not get serious unless something serious is going on. Did you happen to notice he got serious?

AND... get over the notion that anything you put on the net is private.

Apparently you missed the quotes of the word in question...

I never said I was entaining the idea I simply was stating what I going to do.. there was zero threat to it !

I am too tired to be punished criminally for a civil issue.. to send someone off to prison for 5 yrs for 2500.00 is pretty sad and wrong especially sinice I am NOT out screwing off or getting into trouble.. the only thing I do is work weird hrs and take care of grandma in between....

Here's the irony.... I would still owe the money when I got out so you tell me how this benefits me to waste 5yrs in jail over a few dollars to loose EVERYTHING I have and then are forced to start completely over with my past record ???

I have put everything I have into my business and are trying to be successful and prove to the world that just becasue you screwed up in your past.. that doesnt have to dictate your future !

According to general concensus I am suppose to fail and are doomed to be a loser and make nothing of my life becasue of my "label" I chose otherwise and are proving it to myself and everyone else ! this is alot of the reason why I retailiate so harshly when provoked or attacked on here...

The judge even brought to my atention that I afforded private council in the past and that showed him that if he put pressure on me than I would come up with the money now.... what he did'nt understand is that I had a few extra bucks back then before I sunk it all in my business trying to be successful and not end up like they expect me to !

So given the situation I just explained.. do you see where "threatened" is not applicable at all ?

This IS a do or die situation..... the score is 6 to 6... the wager is death to the loser ! cueball is frozen to the head rail... 9-ball is staring me in the face in a direct line to the corner pocket from the middle of the table.... everything is riding on this shot.. yes I have been in this exact situation before except the wager was a few dollars less and I not only made the 9-ball...I fired it in with authority ! this is the same scenario with slightly different stakes......."get the picture"

Those who know me personally will attest to my persona and determination regardless of the direction this may have gone !

Fortunately for me and Grandma I have enough offers from fellow AZ'rs that I won't have to take the proverbial "shot" just incase my efforts are futile....

Those of you "strangers" for the most part, who have offered to help me out in this crisis I am having will NEVER know just how much this means to me and the depth of appreciation and respect I have for you....

I just want to say thankyou at the very least for the sincere offers !


I will let everyone know the outcome in the next couple of days... in the meantime I need to buff out Charlies cue and box it up before something bad happens again :embarrassed2:


Very Sincerely, Eddie WHeat
 
??????????

This is not good Eddie. I believe I would borrow a little extra where as you could get that AZB promotional banner you so deserve. Its lifes little dilemmas that we overcome that make us stronger. I will tell you this in all sincerity that at one time I was pro Varney but I flip-flopped. I am at the present time anti Wheat but if you overcome your present situation I am thing about flip-flopping an becoming pro-Wheat. I made a post earlier today an my girlfriend told me I was being mean so I deleted it. It really has me thinking an I'm on the fence right now.Eddie I can be a man of compassion an a fierce ally.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!This is for you Eddie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dave,

I can understand you skepticism but I would never ever stoop this low to use an angle this serious just to sell cues !

Right now I''m jsut concerned about being able to continue building the ones I'm working on right now...

I was caught completely off guard I never expected the court not to compromise with me or extend my probation... even my ex-atty was agast when I told him what happened and the court wouldn't entertain any options to insure they got their money and I didn't get violated... in short the judge gave me 1 week to come up with the money !

I made every effort as far as filing the motions and petitioning the courts and you would think that would give me a little leadway but I guess they viewed it as wasting thier time...

Anyways, it's all for real and I never expected it to get posted on AZB becasue bulletins on MYspace are only visible to those on your friends list to my experience and knowledge !

But I guess my open book life isn't such a bad thing afterall !

Take care Dave38 :smile:

Err, Eddie you've been given more than one strike.
Your affairs with the law is long.
Apparently 3 years in prison didn't stop that affair.

I never spent 3 yrs in prison it was 14 months and that was ealr 90's and the only thing I have done wrong since I got into that trouble from when I was 18 is drive on a suspended license for unpaid tickets too many times ! "is that really paramount given the entire scenario"? does that make me who I am today ?

So yes I am behaving myself and are trying to be successful... please forgive me for being a hardcore criminal for driving on a suspended license....
