Shame, they had a great show, watched it from time to time just to see what they'd find, and that both are motorcycle nuts, those shows were great. RIP.. | |||

That guy. I didn't know which one. I thought he lost a lot of weight for health reasons? Definitely young at 58. I hope he enjoyed life before he died. "It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946. | |||

I enjoyed the show and loved Mike and Frank's stories about items as well as their banter with each other and the sellers. I was glad to read that they had reconciled from their falling out of a few years ago before Frank's passing. He was way too young. *** "Aut viam inveniam aut faciam (I will either find a way or make one)." -- Hannibal Barca | |||

What a shame - grew up on this show. Loved the dynamic between Mike and Frank and I still think of them every time I see an Indian bike. _____________________________ "I don't really feel quite 100 percent, Charles" - Bob Green, The Edge P365 .380 | |||

From what I read online, he had a massive stroke a few years ago and was left with permanent impairments: needed a wheelchair, unable to speak as a result. Very sorry to hear this news and hope he is at peace now and getting ready to pick in heaven. | |||
