OT; Hey rookie,old friend,
I cannot keep up with this place these days. There is too much excess rambling and repetition, much of which is too mean spirited for my taste. I have a great job and many beaches to walk on, collect rocks, play music with a blues band, drink beer and an Irish whiskey, laugh from the gut with my friends, talk about and look at/love pretty women, smell the roses, thank God for all that and much, much more...
I still read this board, yep, uh huh...'cept I skip piles of it, probably miss some good stuff too. But mind you, good fellow, I never forget a friend once made, and you are one. There are several others here too, and I include your Bonnie's crowd in that, especially bulldzr. Think of me next time and I'll say "cheers" to you all with a Jameson 12 yr. from way up north out on Cape Cod.
BTW, I saw a whale spouting at the beach a couple days ago...nice stuff.
Best to you good rookie,
Toby
