'tho I'm but a humble newbie, I was already so hooked on this place, that after it was off-line a couple days, I started to get desperate...Was it something I said? Had the all-powerful Adler banished me for making fun of his jeep troubles? Were the black MH-60's on their way to my house?

I even hunted down FlyboyJ on the 'net (His last name was on the shirt he was wearing in the pic of the proud daddy and his new wing-gal) so I could E-mail him for some answers...How sad is that

Anyway, glad to see y'all again, and I promise not to stalk Joe anymore...

JL

PS: has this happened before?

ahhhhhhhhh,...the forum.

The nice soothing colors, the topical banter, the hysterical screams of Lucky in the background. So good to be back!

I know what you mean, Buzzard. There is a rumor I called Charles in a panic and I emailed Eric from his site.

For some reason I need my daily dose of this site and all on here. Other sites are not as active or as lively. Kudos to Horse and all who manage this place!

Well, you had me fooled, Dan. Hope I look that good when I'm 42.

Likewise from here too... I was worried it was 'game over' for the forum...

Missed you guys, gals, and Lucky - (any man who wears a kilt deserves a special category, even if he hasn't shouted us those beers yet..!)
