Mike:
My Dad, brother and I rode our bikes all over that country over several motocycle trips in the 70's and early 80's. I miss those day so much. It was beautiful country and as a teenage boy, camping out and riding in that country was heaven to me. I will do it again some day, before I die, I hope.
As for the brief synopsis of what you missed:
Bob was absolutely unbearable once you were gone, thinking he had the run of the place.
Greenie was PM'ing me telling me you were making his life hell. (Why does he think he should be treated differently than the rest of us?)
Ed Valentine showed up, posting under the name "Rightie Tightie."
We had several complaints about Les not returning phone calls during Odin's stay with him.
There were no UFO reports from Duane, but Phred told a few whoppers regarding the size of his penis.
The rubber room is dead from lack of Bob sightings.
Jimmy is jealous of the friendly relationship I have developed with Island Boy, and has been whining about it non-stop.
Billly Lewis came to visit me on Saturday. He's a really nice guy and you should see the scar on his leg from his V wreck. He's back at it, with a new V and going strong.
Jim Pemberton is talking down at me now. He's sucking up to Harold for some reason.
