I was just wondering if anyone seems to have failed to make the trip over here, or who has seemingly disappeared.
HornsManiac, of course, but I am talking about other posters besides him.
I don't know why exactly but one name occurred to me that I hadn't seen in a bit was Casterling, our British import. :)
Who else is missing? Or has anyone seeing Casterling?

I haven't seen Jimmy Hoffa in a while. Or Salman Rushdie.

I've seen Cam on...you know who's been missing for a while...Scatman Crothers, where is he...that and the guy who wrote Catcher in the Rye has been out of the spotlight for years...

Rushdie either just did or will give a speech at the University of Pennsylvania.

Yeah....they like others didn't report to class for the Roll Call.
I thought of Critch, but I actually saw him online over at the Dynasty board only 10 minutes ago...

Whatever happened to "The Mike" or did he change his screen name?
Duckman???...I remember he was having a health thing...i hope all is o.k.
Double A has been missing....but yaknow...he was just a Blues fan......
And of course...Evan has been missing since the Original board opened.

That prolific poster Vulcan seems to have left his torrid pace back on the old board. 350 posts in like two months, but none since we've been over here.

This isn't someone who's missing, but rather someone who's just joined - She Who Must Be Obeyed. Welcome! If my wife ever finds this place....

Heh. Turns out it almost certainly IS my wife. Can't verify for certain yet because she's not at the house anymore, but it makes sense that she would have gone by there for a few minutes. She leads a small group with a group of freshman girls on Wednesday afternoons, and leaves the office early.
The good news is that I doubt seriously that she has the patience to come check the board that often.
I wonder what would happen if I banned her???? :D

If she lives up to her name, it wouldn't last long.

So how many people who might be "missing" do you think have taken refuge under another name to try to start "fresh" here at the new board?

And now it just hit me what motivated her to join. Since we're going to be sitting down tomorrow night to make some final calls on the CD cover, I sent her a link to the CD cover opinions thread so she could read the stuff for herself. I'm pretty I've told her before that I refer to her as S.W.M.B.O. on here, but even if I hadn't or she forgot, I refer to her as that in the very thread that I gave her a link to. DOH!

Ummm...wouldn't that also ban you by default?
Hmmm...I know you can ping yourself, but can you ban yourself? And if you did, could you then remove the ban, even though you were banned. And if you killed your father while you were banned....

Well, I'm about to find out for sure. Heading out of the office to the house. It says she's still online, which means she's probably left the screen up. (She does that even more than I do....) I'll let y'all know in about 15-20 minutes.

She had an electric typewriter/word processor that she used for all of her word processing needs. The first Windows system she had ever been on was the system we bought right after we got married (May '98). She's learned a lot since then.

Excellent, I still have a shot at the million dollars. Or do you have to declare yourself a member of the peaceful Islam religion before you kill someone for money?

Amaroq only came back for about a week at FOFC. Hadn't seen Dwarf in many moons, however.
Don't know that I've seen OldGiants since we've moved. Haven't see a whole of ez, either. Ditto for the Hokies pair, OldSchool and VT.

No such luck here. I have gotten to answer the infamous question, "What is this site in your history bar?" Really honey, I don't visit porn sites.
Of course, when we were first dating, she took me with her to help her buy a PC. After she picked one out, she blurts out, "Now I need some games" I think I fell in love on the spot.

What about the Wigs? Are they gone for good, or just temporarily boycotting FOFC again?

Where are Hell Atlantic and mckerney.
I know HA got married, but could that be a reason to come less to FOFC?
And mckerneycarneydawgiechangingusernameeveryfiftyweeks, where's he gone?
Subby?
Morgado?
Tony?
Chubby?
Dolamite?

Amaroq... taught me everything I know... of course its common knowledge that he and QS were seperated at birth.
OG was a great a source of wise knowledge.
How about Diesel? Anyone remember that robust MF from the first (Green Bay Weiss) board?.
JeeberD
02-06-2003, 02:29 PM
Dolamite hasn't been around in a long, long time, has he? I don't remember seeing him after he was ridiculed and made infamous with the term "dola". Of course, I was away from the board for a year and half, do I may have missed him coming back...

Chief Rum,
Thanks for the thought, sorry only just noticed this thread when searching for something else.
I was missing for a while as my company have blocked access to FOFC and most of the websites I used to visit.
Just installed internet access as home via cable, so I'm back - and enjoying catching up with what I've missed i over the last few months.
CA.

Sure thing, Casterling. You were one of the first I thought of. I think it was because you are a British national in America, and you always put up insightful thoughts on us Yanks that aren't so apparent to us. :)
Glad to see you're here, and enjoy the cable--that stuff is great.
