I hope his personal life is ok but I certainly don't miss his crazy tirades and stupid opinons.

@Pony_fan: I'm gonna go out on a limb and say he feels likewise...or maybe not...I don't know. Never heard him mention you one way or the other, so he might not care at all. :wink:

I'm sure he doesn't miss my "crazy tirades and stupid opinions." :)

Glad to hear he's alright.

OC Mustang wrote:According to conversations I've had with him, he's looked at the board a couple of times a month ago, but not since the beginning of March. I don't know if he's done here, or if it is a temporary thing. He's not a dodgy fellow, and I know that he's been pretty tied up. His family, his extended family, his father's estate, and his work have pretty much boxed all of his time. He's a good friend...one of the best men I know, frankly. And he knows what the big rocks are in his life. He's not paying a lot of attention to the smaller rocks or the sand. And right now, to paraphrase his sentiments, this is sand. He likes a lot of the folks on here, but the stuff he can touch needs him more than the board does.

He might show back up from time to time, but by and large, the days of General Patton giving his two cents in search of a tank battle are done. Our personal conversations revolve a lot less around the Hilltop these days, what with children and trips and work and all. But I hope we can pick them up during spring practice. He thinks we need more D-linemen, by the way. But go figure...we all think that. :wink:

Oh...and he's had prayers for Coach Reinebold. He was really shocked by the news, and he asks me about him often. I just relay what I read.


That reminds me, I have a slightly used Seven Habits talking stick for sale if anyone wants it. But what's in your backpack?
At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.
