I was looking up some old posts by Fitzo and some of us from the old days and came across this thread. It started out as an introduction thread, but as was the norm back then it went into fun and poking at each other. I miss the days of friendly fun in Shop talk. I miss guys like IG, Dan, and Higgy. At least we still have fatzo ... I mean Fitzo.

It has a post by a new guy from Nevada named Larrin Thomas, a 16-year-old J. Keeton (Red Beard Ops), a new guy named JT, and so many more. It's worth the five minutes to scroll through the 20 pages.

In don't think I have seen Mark Williams here lately. I know he was having some issues. Hope he is still around.

Thanks for digging that up, Stacy! I'll read every page. Those guys were my internet extended family, essentially, and I miss them and those times.

I so wanted that irascible old bast**d IG to see me now, more than 200 pounds lighter. I had already decided I hoped he kept calling me fatzo. RIP you old reprobate. I miss you. 😢
