Wherein CCers rush to the Lounge to welcome me back
« on: July 06, 2011, 07:42:50 PM »
Oh my! Has it really been a year and a half? (last post was in Jan of 2010!)

How is everyone?

Great great, me too.

Been to long wondering hither and yonder about the enter-toobs seeking out Lefties to battle and turn from the dark side. Total minds saved... zero.  :yawn:

Back here to recharge the batteries, see how everyone is getting along and maybe rejoin (or restart) the grand tradition of the Friday night drinking thread.  :cheersmate:

Welcome back, sir, a hearty welcome back.

But you'll have to do the Friday evening drinking thread, as it kind of waned away--and you're more than welcome to rejuvenate it.

Thanks Duke and Frank.

Looking forward to being around again. talking beer, wine, movies, books, football and when unavoidable... even politics.

Had a computer die on me and going through the motions of setting things back up on a new one I recalled CC and was lucky enough to remember my sign-in and password lol

How do Odin's Hand. Like MacArthur, I shall return... er, to the sports page anyway and continue to make my case for the lowly Seahawks and the scandalous tOSU Buckeye's no matter how much they each embarrass me year to year in new and exciting ways.

You had told me awhile back that you were there and I looked up your Tristan account and there was no activity. Now I shall have to see what type of trouble you have caused.
