I miss Steve, George, Bob, and Jeff. ☹ ---

Ranger Jeff put in an appearance, just yesterday or the day before. But I’ve already forgotten his new username. He still has the “Idol of American Youth” sig line. ---

Doh! He’s calling himself “Ranger”. ---

Ha! You kids! Back when I first started posting, we had to hike six miles through the snow, uphill, just to view a thread. And if we wanted to actually _post_, we had to carve the words into big, heavy rocks with chisels. By candle light. And fend off saber-toothed tigers while we were doing it. Ahhh, those were the Good Old Days… ---

I saw Jeff’s post and even responded. I just wish he made more appearances. ☹ I remember this from the old AOL days - "When a mama [insert current subject] and a daddy [insert same subject] love each other very much. . . . . . ". Remember George and his yellow cake with pink icing? ---

> [@](#): > > The perkster / Matbernst / \*\*Alaskansky \*\*/ Cyberian / Manny Peeples / Benny Boy / The carrot, Chevy and hippo invasion / The Long Island home schooled boys / homework questions I certainly hope that you weren’t trying to lump me together with all the trolls. While I’m sure that some folks found me abrasive, I did my best to be a positive contributor. I seem to recall that LilethSC liked to stalk me from thread to thread, finding fault with everything I said. I don’t know what I ever did to her, but she had a special fondness for hazing me in particular. I also remember Cyberian writing in all capital letters, proselytizing, citing scripture, and accusing SDMB’ers of mental masturbation. Does anyone remember this? “If a man falls backwards off the cab of a moving pickup truck, how fast does it have to be going for him to clear the bed and land in the road?” (yes, I just bumped an 11 year old thread) ---

Imposter. And reported. ---

Most ironic zombie thread ever. ---
