Frequent Felon Miles get you an upgrade in your accommodations, too!

I'm trying to smoke OC out so he'll return to Ramblermania and I can again sit back and watch with pleasure as he and GoRamblers go at it like a couple of high school freshman girls.

Haha yea to be fair that was only e's excuse. I can't remember what OC said when I asked him, but it was probably something snarky followed by a good CigarBoy burn.

Big Joe posted this thread on my facebook. Had to re-sign up with a new occount, couldn't remember the original password. Also took me a second to remember why I used oc, since I haven't lived in Southern California since 2003. Damn I'm old.

Haven't done a very good job following the team in recent years, sorry. I am still a public defender in Colorado, and been around long enough to not even come close to taking swella's bait making fun of me about it.

Done an even worse job checking the board, though glad that so many of the usual suspects are still around. Did anyone ever figure out who swella is? Is Maggs still around? And does he still use a tilde when spelling anything vaguely of Spanish origin? Do LT and Cigarboy still wind themselves up about how badly Jimmy Carter screwed us all? Do you guys remember that time BigJoe cried at midcourt when we beat Butler?

Who would have thought that all these years later Blue would be doing shots with me and my mom at the bar the night before my brother's wedding. But it happened. Small world. I'll try to check in a little more often.

Well Hello again to OC-DOCEE !! YUP we are mostly all here pluggin along-- Some of us have gone to Heaven--as reported earlier in this post--Those that have were the best--including my Long-shot Lor.
Hopefully you are still one of Colorado's top Marathon Men !!!

Maggs--well he stops by some--but not as often as we would like.. Now then , he probably will not be writing for an even longer period as his U of A Kitties went down to hated ASU last evening, This of course places our MVC Shockers another step forward----BTW they are the DAWGS of this conference--BUT not nearly so obnoxious as that INDY kennel. I suspect we will be developing a great rivalry.

Keep posting, ol' pal !!

Yes. In fact, he likes to sit near me at games. Well, he and Rog sit together

He is still around but isn't as big a part of this board as he was with the old one. And yes, he loves using the tilde.

Do LT and Cigarboy still wind themselves up about how badly Jimmy Carter screwed us all?

One of the added benefits of moving boards is that LT didn't come with and Cigar has disappeared. No one knows why LT stopped posting but Cigar won elective office in Nebraska. He's too good for us now. Now he harangues librurls in the Cornhusker state.

Wish I'd had someone to bet with that someone'd make this joke. Pretty much everyone out of town I've spoken to since 1/1 has. Big fan of the law; definitely has made my life easier.

Even more so than "where's blksgrl?" (I'm treating that thread as one long post)
