but despite rob's protests, here i am checking in. regularly in touch with no one. and RYP wasn't really here even when barely he was. no real change or loss there.


that you didn't mention me leaves me nonplussed and rather unsurprised.

When/how did Yorick die?
I'd whore myself out just one more time if I knew who to screw to get out of this grind.

You shut your whore mouth.


No need to be so rude and crude. You don't tell me when to shut my man pleaser and you can run your cock holster as much as you like with no protests from me.

I recall nohammy getting banned by RYP for going complete troll.

Didn't FF walk away after disagreeing with Sviz's moderation style?

I am busy running the world from inside my hollow volcano. Also traveling, writing, filming and that stuff. Twitter is where I piss people off. Good to see Rob still hating on the place he can't quit.

I was in Ukraine touring front lines for a month and off to Nigeria to see how fabulous the Delta is.

What can I say? The car wreck that is your ego has its own gravitational pull at this stage. Glad to be living in your head right next to it.

Lurk occasionally, definitely stop in to read the Darcy posts.

Should be bouncing around Europe for the better part of the next year, as part of my semi-retirement.

El3so, will be giving you a shout if I find my self in your nabe.

My adventures these days consist of taking my kids to hockey and soccer and lots of family time….when I’m not working. In other words, exactly everything my 20 year old self swore I would never become lol. Life has a funny way of taking you to places you least expect.

But I am fortunate to have a loving family and I’m trying my best to raise my kids with proper values that seem to be extinct these days. I’m not even sure how to navigate this new world myself let alone teach someone else to. For every fire I teach them to start in the woods, every backcountry camping experience, I gotta compete with days of Pokemon and Minecraft screentime binges!

Living in a smaller town, lots of cool people and all but boy do I miss discussing the pros and cons of female genital circumcision, and lesser known conflict areas of the world. I think I paraphrased RYP there?

Anyway, always had great chats with you lovely folks and miss coming on here. Life is busy and my spirit for adventure has been domesticated, but certainly not extinguished…..Keep the fire going!

I met and worked with FlipFlop as a neighbor in Iraq and he was a truly squared away guy and a perfect gentleman. To say I respect the fellow soldier is an understatement
