I met Salas back in '69. I was smoking a spliff on the backstage when Hendrix was playing Purple Haze. I taught him everything he knows up-to-date. He is a impecable fellow!:D

I just recently started playing vp, but have been a pinball fan since the nineties. I was blown away by this site, and in particular JPSalas amazing tables. In the forums you seem to be a wonderful, helpful and relaxed person. Most has been Said already, so I just want to add that I am very grateful for all your work that has been giving me countless of hours of fun. I wish I had half your talent. Respect!

When I first got into VP a few years ago I thought it would be a passing interest. Then I downloaded a couple of JP's tables. I appreciate the many hours spent building these wonderful tables, as well as the kind attitude brought to the community.

My wife has tons of smurf stuff. smile.gif She used them in her classroom for years. She doesn't have this clock, so I won't let her see the picture or she would want me to buy it on eBay for her. smile.gif

Time to get up JP! It looks like another smurfy day! biggrin.gif

JP's angle independent VP9 tables are a cabinet modders dream! Speaking of cabinets, where's my tools... and some wood too, that might help. Thanks for all your great VP contributions JP and here's to many more!! biggrin.gif

Hey, look's like you guys have said most things about JPS, except his kind comments, which he gives others on their work.

Yet, JPS has done so much to move this hobby of ours on with great release after great release of pinball tables.

Thank you!

Three cheers to the man who made quality a reality! Yabba-Dabba-Doo!™

Salas! JPSalas! He's the modern innovative man! From the country India, he's a smurf right outta history! Someday, maybe he will win the fight, and that cat will stay out for the night! When you're playing his works, have a Yabba-Dabba-Doo time, a Dabba-Doo time, you'll have a Smurf old time!

You'll have a Smurf old time!
