It was just in the past year I had the courage to delete Oscar's e-mail address. It was 1975 when we meet at the Hoopstown gun show.
He called me to tell me about the new Double Gun Journal and this board. I seem to remember getting gray then.

I miss Wonko, The Red Neck Journal, Old Lightnin', Bill Wise, and other early contributors.

Everytime I think everything has been said, something new pops up. So I still check in from time to time.

I notice my stock has gone down... from 4 stars to two. I guess I misbehaved in class?

Walt Im with you. It use to be more informative with much less BS.
What I miss most aboout the old days is Mr. Russ Rupple. He always had something intertaining to say.
I remember one time the topic was a dealer had an "unfinnished Optimus". Russ's responce to that was "Ive got a hole room full of unfinnished Optimus"

Brian, I've got one of those coins as well, and I must remind you that the answer to the question "What comes out of the sky?" is "Birdsh*t!"

I don't post much anymore but I still check in once a week or so. For those new to the forum the real character of the people who frequent this site was demonstrated after hurricane Katrina. Like all "families" we have our issues but when trouble shows up the personal agenda is set aside. I still can't believe what was done. What John Mann started as an idea turned into something very special. Jack

My fondest memories are when The entire board rallied around Bill Wise and myself with the raffle to help Dale Dalrymple when he had his accident.. MDC

Mr. Mann organized a very useful and timely thing. It felt good to play a small part in that.

I could always remember license plates and ages, but I was usually terrible with names. I am just starting to remember the names of the guys I have been shooting skeet with all summer, but I remember the license numbers on their cars. Strange how the mind works. Lee the first should be about 68. yobyllib should be about 39 or 40. Franc Otte should be about 50. Researcher about 62 or 63. Ky Jon about 51. Cary is about the same age as I am- 61. Bill Wise would be about 69 by now. I never knew how old Larry Brown was, I assumed mid 60s. Geno should be about 48. How close am I guys?
