ALL BCM MEMBERS,

As we all know Yoo had his Tumor removed last Thursday. As of today he is still battling some complications. First and foremost we need everyones PRAYERS and GOOD THOUGHTS to help support him through this tough time.

As it looks right now, he will not be able to work for 6-8 months, and could use some financial support. And US, his BCM family needs to help him however we can.

I (and others who have been close to him during this time) are asking that we all DIG DEEP and donate what we can right now to help put his mind at ease about taking care of the financial side, of taking care of his family.

There are a number of ways to DONATE.

1- Updated 1/2/2009 - This new Paypal link is Tax and Fee FREE.
Click below to make a donation to the Fazal family (Yooformula)
http://images.paypal.com/en_US/i/btn/x-click-but21.gif (http://www.fazalfamilyfund.com/index.html)

2- I have started a Savings Account for donations. You can PM me and I will pick up donations ANYWHERE after 3pm on weekdays, and all day on weekends.

3- You can stop by Andrew Toyota service department and ask for Mike Cooper (Coop, Jimmy MFing Johnson) and he will get the donation into the savings account.

LETS ALL HELP THE MAN WHO HAS DONE SO MUCH FOR SO MANY!!

WE KNOW YOU ARE READING THIS YOO. STAY STRONG!!! WE LOVE YOU MAN!!

Yoosof, it's almost been 10 years buddy. I'm looking forward to many more memories of hanging out and doing cam swaps in my parents house, opening the cutout at the Pick N Save down the street so we didn't wake my parents or the neighbors back then, the XBOX COD4 matches, UFC fights, heading out with the old school crew, etc....

I know I'll be getting with Dave quite a bit, but

JUST SHOW SOME SUPPORT TO A MAN THAT HAS GIVEN ALL OF US GEARHEADS A HOME TO VENT AND BS AND TALK SOME SHIT, AND MOST IMPORTANTLY - BECOME FRIENDS

I've made arrangements to donate tomorrow afternoon through Dave. Based on people's opinions of me on this board, if even I am donating $XX. Everyone can donate something.

And Chris, while my donation will be over $30, keep the oil change. Not what I'm looking for out of helping someone's family.

I was in a tough spot, people helped me out. I'm just glad me working 2 jobs will help someone out.

100% Understandable... It's been a long day and my faith in humans has dwindled quite a bit. Maybe there is hope and it's not needed.

just tossing out an idea....how about a bowling tournament/outing to help raise some cash? I'm sure without really trying, we could get 100 people to show up. drop $10-$20 in a bucket as you walk in...bowl against your buddies or enemies from here for some $$ and drop that in the bucket...maybe the bowling alley could contribute a portion of their proceeds from the day's event.
Before ya know it, we've got his mortgage payment covered for a few months.....
oh yeah...and if you show up without a x-mas gift for his kids, Irish gets to judo chop you in the neck right at the door!

I'm not really "in" with any bowling centers, but I'm sure some of you here are on leagues and know the owners. If not, I'll do some leg work.

the last email I got from paypal was at 10:28pm... so I wonder if they just will all come in the morning.

New count, there's a couple additions since my previous update:

An outstanding start of $610.00

That's $1060.00 running total.

That is a good idea Jason. Maybe we should get the families Christmas list and do the shopping for them.... Or what about donating a Thanksgiving dinner so they do not need to worry about going out and getting food

I think the Thanksgiving thing is a great idea. We could set up a list and members can choose an item they want to contribute. Almost like a Potluck, but it's coordinated for Yoo and his family. This way, one or 2 people don't have to buy or make all the food. One or two people get potatos, corn, stuffing, etc.

how old are yoo's kids.. i have a friend who works at best buy who can get me a bunch of discount's and he can cut me a break on gift cards.. ie.. i give him 50 he puts 60 on the card with his discount. also.. can get a deal on gift cars to the pig and pick and save..

remember christmas for his kids guys and spare cash for food and what not.

It might be hard but that would be awsome if we can get enough money to take care of his mortgage for 4 months or so..

He lives near me so it can't be that high.. I pay about $1,200 a month..

11-11-2008, 02:10 PM

Greg and J any new updates on yoosof?

Twigbert I think we might have close to one house payment already for him.

I must have missed you guy by a 1/2 hour. I talked with Yoosof briefly and his father too. Your right hes having a very painful day. Deb was rubbing his shoulders and his father was working his feet. He did talk to me a little. I held his hand an assured him (we the board ) are looking out for Deb and his family. Debbie I wish we could have had a few words but I understand completely.

I haven't felt this way inside for a long time. Its humbling to see him in all that pain.
I don't know why it came but I told him we loved him and I gave his father a caring hug as I left.

Fight it Yoosof !!! You can beat this.

In a week or so I might have a set of used stock 241 heads off an 03 LS1 with stock rockers and pushrods. They have 30,000 miles on them. I have absolutely no money to spare right now, but if someone buys them from me I will donate 100% OF THE MONEY to Yoo. I know I don't meet the 100 post qualification to sell stuff anymore since I haven't been that active since the sight crashed, but figure you might make an exception considering the circumstance.
