Well I'll play...

Post by ericboutin »

But am I still considered new if I joined 5 years ago??!!....But I do only have 2 posts to my name at this point...now 3 i guess. I was redirected here from the other side and didn't realize I was already a member. Maybe this place wasn't as active back then? Anyway reading through some of the introductions had me laughing....sign here...initial here...sign and initial here...lol lol....anyway cool to see some familiar faces (screennames) in this playground.

Welcome back Eric. I presume your kids are out of band now so you can come out and play? I promise not to pass anymore funerals on Warwoman Rd.

Yes Band is a!most over!! She signed up for a "winter" band but I was adamant I was just gonna be a spectator! So yah the wife and I have been coasting through this winter band season. Then she graduates!!....which now that I'm retired and on a fixed income I'm gladly accepting donations for a college fund!

As to passing the funeral....LOL....I was recently reminded of you when riding with a friend of mine and being halfway passed a car when I asked if he was good with passing on a double yellow!! Lol needless to say I didn't give him much choice!! Sound familiar! LOL

I'm glad to see the existence of this place to counter the "other" place. And yah Mr Wheaton always ready to ride!

Ehhhh? I don't know about all these new people signing up. Its going to change everything around here. Why can't things just stay the same.

Just kidding, sort of. Welcome to the forum Eric. :lol:

Welcome to the other sandbox. I did the same as you with a long ago sign-up and now hanging out here more. Love the looser (or is it Loser? :) ) atmosphere here.

Growing like weeds around here.


NO, I did not say anything about growing weed around here. This ain't Colorado!

Welcome
I often have found myself when I was not looking, nor did that discovery take place where I thought it would!
