Wow I live in New York and was following this closely did not realize that man was a member. The craziest and saddest story I have heard in a long time. It is a shame that four innocent people had to die. It is just so senseless. I can't understand why anyone would do something like this especially over the use of a car and a girl. I mean every male alive has had a girl turn him down at one time or another, women make up 51% of the population so there are always plenty of other potential options out there that a guy does not have to fixate on one that is not interested for whatever reason. Glad Joe and the other survivors are going to be okay and I hope in the future people having thoughts of homicide think before they act and ask themselves is anything really worth doing something like that?

Joe,

Man you are one bad mofo! Great job representing the hero we all wish could be said of us. New Yorkers are some strong folks, I wish you a speedy recovery and look forward to the story!

Hey guys,
Thank you all for the kind words & well wishes. I just thought I'd give you an update on my well being.

I saw an eye doctor yesterday and my left eye appears to have no structural damage and it's pretty much just waiting for it to heal at this point.

At my GP, I had several stitches removed and about 40% of the staples removed. The remainder of the stitches/staples should come out on Wednesday.

Pretty much going to rest for the next few days as my blood pressure was a little low and I'm slightly anemic since I lost so much blood. All in all I'm healing nicely.

I'll keep you posted as things progress. Again, thank you all.

Regards,
Joe

PS-save some Kyle Farnsworth items for me please!!! Once I'm up & running again I plan on seeing if the Braves have any left from last season. I know I'm not the only guy who collects his stuff. See, even in my "weakened condition" (Ferris Bueller reference), the collector in me comes out!!!!

You guys are awesome, thanks from my family & myself!!

Hey Joe,

Good to hear your going to heal & fully recover.

You must be getting better since your thinking about game used stuff!

Once again, Great job!

With all the television appearances maybe we should ask for your autograph??
