Yo, Yo - What's Up TRF?? DMAN told me to stop by >>>

Hello everyone!

I just got off the phone with dman and he said to look you losers up! I already see a ton of ol' timers here! WOW, what a bunch of misfits!

Good to see some of you guys have stayed out of jail!

That whole jail thing is pretty presumptious.

Great to have one of the good guys stop by and say hello. Don't be a stranger around here mate, there are way too many of these guys that know you.

BTW/ See ya in the morning for some coffee and conversation.

Daren said you would be here! You may not remember, buy you and I are buds from the old T**f days. Do you still live in that sweet Tudor and have the ZX6R?

I still live in the same house but put the bike up for sale when I was home last. I thought the name rang a bell.

Hi Ian,

Welcome to TRF. Since you mentioned that other place, perhaps I might know you (but now, of course, you are under a different user name!!)

Meanwhile, have yourself a blast on TRF.

Cheers - JJ

Welcome to TRF, Ian. Sorry to hear you're a friend of that misfit golfer. But we'll overlook that if you promise to bash him once in a while. He needs to be kept in his place periodically.

Stick around and join the fun here.

Hi Ian, welcome. We won't hold the fact that you're a friend of Daren's against you. You get judged by who you are, not whom you associate with.

BTW, were you at T#$% when I was there under my old 'JC' name?

Atomic & JJ >>>>

I remember you guys, I was never a really big poster, but I was there from the beginning - back when Kayes ran it. I've always had the same user name, but maybe my posting name just showed up as Ian, which there always seems to be a few on each board.

For the past few years I've been hanging out at JW's Animal House with JW, Slugo, Jocke, etc.

Ian was there the entire time we were over there, He was the first to polish the center links on his Tudor Chrono, something I later did. He was also the first to remove the cyclops from the same watch, something.....oh nevermind.

Ian, it really was my total pleasure to meet and chat with you. What a great personality and likeable person. The halloween costume was hilarious too.

You see Daren, removing the cyclops is really easy:
Phase I - get a hack-saw
Phase II - start cuttin'
Phase III - take it to RSC



The Tudor was [is] a great watch >>>>





P.S. - What costume??
