Remember back in the day, when we had that other site? What ever happened to some of those folks we used to talk with quit a bit.. I remmeber one couple, I think the wife had died. Anyone ever keep in touch with any of the reqular members..

SARGE · 04-18-2013, 04:48 PM

Man, I was just thinking about that couple the other day. I remember him urging me to give his wife a hard time so she would learn good natured ribbing. I think Hal was enjoying Mike's Lemonade at the time. That goes way back

doubledragon5 · 04-19-2013, 04:09 PM

Way back in deed, those were some good times....

LawyerRon · 04-22-2013, 09:01 PM

Those where the days. Don't remember the couple though. Reboot, Toaster, and others.

I believe it was heyhey who passed on and her daughter was on the site for a while.

HAL9000 · 04-23-2013, 06:19 PM

That was Don (dldz) who's wife died... I can't remember her handle right now... I think it may be black hole material for me after I hit my head... I'd have to go look up some old pics and see if it lists names.

EDIT: Nope, just hit me... Quartzhunter (I want to say Linda, but I would have to double check that).

SARGE · 04-23-2013, 06:30 PM

I bet there are some archives

That's because the page is not actually Forumclick, it's the web archive. It has snapshots of web pages and what they used to look like.

Man, you bring up some past with dldz and Quartzhunter. To me, it was whoever you were talking to about coming for a visit in maybe Denver, maybe. And you guys always talked about Mike's Lemonade. It was his wife who passed, whichever dude it was. Had her ashes on his PC desk. Seems like dldz. Been a few moons.

HAL9000 · 04-23-2013, 10:30 PM

It was dldz, and I did go to visit him in Salem Oregon after his wife died. She passed away within a few days of my dad. After a while, he kinda drifted off his own direction. Haven't heard from him in a long time.

Thanks bud. Is very, very weird, I was thinking about them the other day, before this thread started, and now this. I just couldn't put names with the thoughts. And now this... I just remembered the event and the times but this brings clarity. wow

bailey · 04-24-2013, 06:25 PM

I want some mikes and some of those special brownies.

bob · 04-24-2013, 07:55 PM

You don’t want one of those famous burritos.

HAL9000 · 04-24-2013, 08:55 PM

Can't forget Kathaksung. I loved making anagrams with his name... I think the best that somebody came up with was Ah Skank Gut

I take credit for that one.

Funny thing is, all my lights are now fluorescent.

SARGE · 04-24-2013, 10:48 PM

Cool thread, brings back memories. Maybe glc should start an Old Fart Forum. Maybe dominoes like WWF. All joking aside, is great so many of us are still around. Says a lot. Makes one wonder...

bob · 04-25-2013, 12:47 AM

I tried my best to remember who came up with the famed "dog burrito" but can't

HAL9000 · 04-25-2013, 08:26 AM

I think that was my doing actually.

David M · 04-25-2013, 09:12 AM

What happened with the really nice guy in Hawaii? I don't remember his name. George wanted him as a moderator at one time.

***glc*** · 04-25-2013, 10:21 AM

You mean Cricket?

doubledragon5 · 04-25-2013, 02:53 PM

Cricket, now that is a name I haven't heard of if a long time.. His avatar was a rabbit. LOL
