Dools Anyone??

If I ever permanently leave this site, I'm going to leave with aplomb.

 

How about a plume?

 

He's home finishing the foreword to "The Larry Smith Chronicles."

 

We know his penultimate post, but what was his last post?

Maybe he got a pair of heavy-duty, zircon-encrusted tweezers for Xmas so he moved to Montana?

 

Hmmmmm...

 

His last post was about Bieber:

Hmmm.

 

That can not be your last post Dools. Sorry. At least make it a post pad.

 

I dunno. I was a regular on another board virtually from the invention of the Internet -- I was on it when it started as an AOL chat page and hung in for 15 years as it transitioned through three or four host services and incarnations, there were a couple database flushes along the way and over the years under a couple usernames I must have run up a total of 100,000+ posts (I think I had 30-40,000 on my then-current handle), and one day in 2010 or 11, I just walked away cold.

Wasn't in any big flame war with anybody or anything; didn't threaten to take my ball and go home, nothing like that, I just walked away. Nobody knew who I was IRL so nobody knew where to look.

I stayed away completely for about 2 years; didn't even open the message boards. Then I came back to lurk as an unregistered guest once a week or so. Every couple months, somebody would start a thread, "Whatever happened to {Starman}?" And nobody knew.

It was kind of funny and a little sad to watch.

So ... who knows?

 

Bodie is coming back after the Super Bowl, right? Especially if the Seahawks win?

 

I told you people, I need to get these memos.

 

With pot legalized, Bodie's in some ashram. He ain't coming back.

 

Maybe he'll at least check in and let us know what ever happened to dooley_wmack1.
