That explains, in part, why this forum is so unusually civil and sane compared to many others.

I remember TNB - rather prolific, and a pretty good avatar (I lurked for a year or two before I actually created an account). Looked like some sort of guady pro wrestler. ikonboard - it was pretty obvious who was behind that.

I asked him publicly about it here when he would attack people on a regular basis and he wouldn't ever reply to me.  He almost never replied to me. Neither did Pros. I liked both of them but think Pros had me on iggy. I remember that you knew/know Pros pretty well. Whats he up to?

He also took away FirstLadyLaura -- not mine -- but I thought she was classy.

Still bagging a ton of nights enjoying life up at his place in northern WI where I visit and spend a few days at a time. We hang out, cook amazing meals, fish, hunt, kayak and hike. We've done a lot of mutiday trips together too. He's into the Birkenbiner ski race (a big deal and internationally known ski race ) and places really high in his category. The rest of the time, he's busy with projects down south of here near his other home.
He's a great guy.

We haven't had anyone worthy of that type of attention in some time. I'd say we're about due.

Was that really you or did that one go over my head? I was lurking during the box-fest so I never received any. Either way, I'm a lover not a fighter so I likely wouldn't have received any anyway.
