    FFS, @Frank_W , how long have you been with TNCR?

    We've changed, to be sure. A lot less contentious than it used to be, but most of us, after all these years are friends. There's no one here that I wouldn't be happy to share a beer or some (cheap) whiskey with.

    I would not have said that a decade ago. We disagree, but we understand each other well enough after all this time to make it okay.

    Stick around, jump in. The water's good.

      @Copper Thanks for checking it out! I've written a ton more since then. Sadly, it doesn't make enough to pay the bills. Yet. I just keep on writing, though. It's always gratifying to sell a piece here and there. It nets a few dollars a month.

        @George-K Indeed, indeed... 🙂 I've missed everyone. Thanks for giving me a link. So much has happened over the past couple of years, I lost touch.

            @George-K I don't know how long it's been... More years than I care to count, at the moment! LOL!

              Frank!

              Great to see you again. Great to know that you are well. Hope you stick around. Maybe you could share some of that pre-Mongol knowledge?

                And another thing....

                Many of us are "friends" on FB.

                However, that's different. On FB, anyone you've ever "friended" has access to what you say, and you're inundated with all of their carp.

                I have > 100 "friends". Most are acquaintances, former co-workers, etc. They're not "friends." They'e people I know.

                Here, we are, even if we disagree, real friends, especially after (gasp) more than a decade. It's a totally different, and better, dynamic.

                    Hey Frank! I returned in Feb 2020 after a good 5-8 years mostly away. As soon as I returned the whole forum moved to this nodebb platform but hahahaha they didn’t lose me! Suckers.

                      But we learned from that. Won't make the same mistake twice. 😉

                      Frank - glad you've joined folks here. We're lucky to have you on our team.

                        Frank - I drove through Bakersfield last fall on my way to Pismo Beach from Vegas. Thought about you as I went through.
