Re: What Happend To Maj And Grumpy?
I know where Maj went (pm me). As for Grumpy, he is a member of a few of these sites.

Re: What Happend To Maj And Grumpy?
Just wondered, didn't relize they had a beef with this, "The Best" contractors forum on the net. Hey we all have to play by the rules. If someone don't wanna they ain't gotta I guess, but then Nathan and our other Mods ain't gotta put up with that type either. Now do they?

Re: What Happend To Maj And Grumpy?
Don't sweat it. I go AWOL from my usual haunts from time to time for no particular reason. I have observed others doing the same thing. There doesn't have to be any mystery or drama surrounding a user's absense. People get busy, people get bored, and people move on. That's just the way it is. You can also "outgrow" a certain forum site, and you need to move on to the next level.

Re: What Happend To Maj And Grumpy?
I equate sites like mining towns in the 1800's.
You get into something new (a strike), then all kinds of folks start moving in. Soon quarrels start and then laws have to be implied and enforced. In the end, you have a city that is entirely regulated. It becomes stagnant and no fun for anyone. There's a race of men that don't fit in, A race that can't stay still; So they break the hearts of kith and kin, And they roam the world at will. They range the field and they rove the flood, And they climb the mountain's crest; Theirs is the curse of the gypsy blood, And they don't know how to rest. If they just went straight they might go far; They are strong and brave and true; But they're always tired of the things that are, And they want the strange and new. They say: "Could I find my proper groove, What a deep mark I would make!" So they chop and change, and each fresh move Is only a fresh mistake. And each forgets, as he strips and runs With a brilliant, fitful pace, It's the steady, quiet, plodding ones Who win in the lifelong race. And each forgets that his youth has fled, Forgets that his prime is past, Till he stands one day, with a hope that's dead, In the glare of the truth at last. He has failed, he has failed; he has missed his chance; He has just done things by half. Life's been a jolly good joke on him, And now is the time to laugh. Ha, ha! He is one of the Legion Lost; He was never meant to win; He's a rolling stone, and it's bred in the bone; He's a man who won't fit in. Robert Service

Re: What Happend To Maj And Grumpy?
Hey, Steve... I don't like you, if we met I'd probably argue with you and want to kick your butt, but I appreciate the poem. Thank you for that.

Re: What Happend To Maj And Grumpy?
I'm not grumpy. Just too young, cocky, arrogant, and dumb to know when to bite my tongue (or keyboard finger, as the case may be). That's not necessarily a good trait, but we play with the cards we're delt. It's among the things that make me unemployable.

Re: What Happend To Maj And Grumpy?
md, I'm really curious as to why you have these feelings towards me, I'm generally well liked. I've been affiliated with the TCBA http://www.treasurecoastba.com/index.php for 20 yrs. now. their ph# is on the site. You can call them anytime.
I'm not big on the BBB but belonged to them once. You can check my record with them. You can also check the Marine Industries Association, I haven't been a member in 15 years but if there is anything negative, it will be there. Why the animosity?

Every once in a while you run across a guy you like to hate. Tag, you're it.

Re: What Happend To Maj And Grumpy?
I swear, messing with forums is like playing cards with my brother's kids!
Why would anyone get made enough to leave over anything said on the intertardnet? |

Re: What Happend To Maj And Grumpy?
My position exactly. Somebody, 1500 mi. away decides to dislike me through electronic media.
In the real world, we would probably meet, have a few beers, shoot some pool and be buds. I'm not that concerned. Everybody knows who I am, where I live, what I look like, I'm certainly not paranoic.

Re: What Happend To Maj And Grumpy?Quote:
I just wondered, they disappeared pretty much at the same time, I personally have no beef with anyone here at all. I'm really not here to make buddies or enemies. This site is a tool. If one does not like my post, I'm sure he can ignore me. I never try to attack anyone. I found both Grumpy and Maj to be very knowledgeable people. Forget I asked.
