I received a recent e-mail from **Carl Berry** and while he didn’t specifically ask me to post this particular thread, I thought I would anyway. It seems that Carl, and anyone else with WEBTV, is unable to post to this message board since the conversion to the new software, although I gather they are able to view. _(Please note: this is not posted as a complaint, it is informational only. I understand the vBulletin and SDMB techs are aware of the problem and crafting a fix.)_

The poor man is going through withdrawals and I thought we could all tell him we miss his postings, or at least poke fun at him. So, hang in there Carl, we miss you. Just sit back and have a beer on me.

So you’re not only his message boy, you’re also his recliner?

UncleBeer, you’re a man of many talents.

Yeah, he sent me a mail as well. He asked me to hold all American tourists hostage untill the wrong has been put right 😃

So I’ve got the Johnsons from Oklahoma right here, Mum and Dad and two adorable little kids. Boy, for a couple of Americans, they sure seem to be terified by my .44 magnum! You’d think they’re used to that sort of thing…

Coldfire, are you making fun of us ‘Merikans and our love of firearms? You better quit it, or we’ll march our gun-lovin’ behinds over there and drill holes in all of your dikes. 😉

Back on topic, I miss Carl Berry. I don’t think he knows who I am, but I’ve always enjoyed his posts. Hang in there Carl, we’ll keep nagging til they get this fixed.

Oh, I don’t mean we’ll nag Tuba and that nice Jim Davis fellow. It’s VBB who shall be the victim of my 7+ years of extensive nagging experience.🙂
