Been thinking alot about a few guys that use to call this place home on a daily basis. Many were very active here. Life can get in the way. Hobbies can change. The friends I've met here are priceless. This is also a kind of way to show guys that everyone is always welcome on the bottle but MANY have come and gone for one reason or the other. Imo it is these gentlemen that have been here for years ( Abill, Bradmc, HDroadglide, E, Cmac, Roach, Cvm4 David, Chuck) Just to name 7 or 8) That give guidance to our newer members. Post up here of guys u wish were still daily posters and lets take a stroll down memeory lane. (and maybe even get one or 2 posting again!)
Mitch
Moro
Shmear
Schuckins .... Ron I know u still take a peek :)

Shuckins really showed me what BOTL was all about when he bombed me after a week on the forums.

I'm still waiting to bomb him in an epic way...may be a few years til i can compete

It'd be nice to have Tony (blessednxs65) post again. He introduced me to the madness and for that I owe him quite a debt..

I really miss Larry and his great beer tasting notes as well. Always took his advise when shopping at the beer store.

Unfortunately I have to work that afternoon, but I do hope that Craig makes it back....he was one of the first BOTLs I ever herfed with in person back when I first started on the boards.

Yep, Mitch and Shuckins were good guys.

Also Volusianator. Having met Wade when he stopped by my house on his way through, I liked the guy. He was an opus whore though, but i won't hold that against him.

I agree with everyone. All these guys that have been mentioned really were great when I joined way back when. They really showed the way with there posts and were highly highly helpful as well as one of the main reasons I'm broke now. :).

For sure I miss the banter of Alfonso. Mitch was a wealth of knowledge. Several other guys whom I know had family obligations or problems and they weren't able to juggle it all. It's interesting to look back at some early posts and see people who were active and now gone
