AfricaBrass Posted February 21, 2012 Report Posted February 21, 2012 This is the first time I've logged-in since 2006 and I just wanted to say hello. I appreciate you all for being the wonderful friends you were to me back then. I loved my time on this board! I'm sorry I haven't been around, but life has chewed me up quite a bit and I haven't been much fun. I hope there's still a place for me here. I'd love to join back in on the fun. Quote
7/4 Posted February 21, 2012 Report Posted February 21, 2012 Welcome back! (You aren't the only one who got chewed up by life) Quote
AfricaBrass Posted February 21, 2012 Author Report Posted February 21, 2012 Welcome back! (You aren't the only one who got chewed up by life) Thanks 7/4! Man, we had some good times here. I'm sorry to hear you've had hard times too. I've been told that what doesn't kill me will make me stronger, but I've found that it has just made this ol' cat mangy. lol Quote
Daniel A Posted February 21, 2012 Report Posted February 21, 2012 Jeff - a nice surprice to see you here again! I've not been posting much here since around 2008; family and everyday life take up most of the time. But I still check in sometimes. I hope you'll stick around! Quote
Dan Gould Posted February 21, 2012 Report Posted February 21, 2012 Nice to see you, AB. Stick around this time! Quote
jazzbo Posted February 21, 2012 Report Posted February 21, 2012 Welcome back Jeff! We missed you! Quote
AllenLowe Posted February 21, 2012 Report Posted February 21, 2012 (edited) 1) Larry Kart was impregnated in a horrible science experiment got wrong - and had to get permission from Rick Santorum in order to put the baby up for adoption. 2) Jeff Crompton was blinded in a terrible science experiment accidental explosion. He lost three fingers from his left hand, one eye, and 6 toes from his left foot. Fortunately, all is ok because he is right-footed and can still play a bass drum. 3) this site was dissolved; Jim Alfredson, in a fit of late-night madness, told us all to go F ourselves and closed it down. Three days later he sold it to Google for $6 billion, Edited February 21, 2012 by AllenLowe Quote
Peter Johnson Posted February 21, 2012 Report Posted February 21, 2012 Oh man , Jeff, its great to "see" you! Have really missed your wit, wisdom, and musical insights around here. As 7/4 said, you are most definitely not the only one life has chewed up--so hang and let's commiserate. Stick around, brother! Quote
JSngry Posted February 21, 2012 Report Posted February 21, 2012 Whatever it was, glad to hear you've survived it, and exceptionally glad to see your return! Quote
BeBop Posted February 21, 2012 Report Posted February 21, 2012 I'll join the chorus and sing out: "Welcome Back". Quote

WD45 Posted February 21, 2012 Report Posted February 21, 2012 Happy to see the return of Cat Shatner! Quote
Dave James Posted February 21, 2012 Report Posted February 21, 2012 What they said. Hopefully, the fact that you're back on board is indicative of an improving personal situation. Quote
ghost of miles Posted February 21, 2012 Report Posted February 21, 2012 AB, I haven't been around much myself the past few months, but what a happy topic headline this was to see today. You're the cat's pajamas, man! Welcome back. Quote
jazzkrow Posted February 21, 2012 Report Posted February 21, 2012 Welcome back Brass. My own tale of sadness. Will be laid off effective next Thursday- 8 mos before I can draw on my retirement IRA. Plus uninsurable except at great expense due to a 7 bypass surgery 7 years ago today... Thank goodness for jazz. Saw Charles McPherson last night at our jazz fest. Life goes on... Quote
AllenLowe Posted February 21, 2012 Report Posted February 21, 2012 (edited) 1) Nixon was re-elected 2) Chewy did 400 hours of Community Service 3) Ron Shur endorsed Rick Santorum (at least I think it was the same Ron Shur....) 4) JSngry donated 20,000 of his posts to charity. Edited February 21, 2012 by AllenLowe Quote
Quincy Posted February 21, 2012 Report Posted February 21, 2012 Wow!, I feel 6 years younger! Welcome back! Quote
Brad Posted February 21, 2012 Report Posted February 21, 2012 As one of the original members, welcome back. You'll probably figure this out but Aric begat Chewy who begat.... Let's stop there! Quote
JSngry Posted February 21, 2012 Report Posted February 21, 2012 4) JSngry donated 20,000 of his posts to charity. Tax-deductable, all of 'em! Quote
sidewinder Posted February 21, 2012 Report Posted February 21, 2012 (edited) This is the first time I've logged-in since 2006 Wow - a BIG welcome back ! Last time you were logged on, the economy was still on a roll, credit crunch not an issue, Greece was solvent and Blair/Bush still in office. Another world !

jeffcrom Posted February 21, 2012 Report Posted February 21, 2012 2) Jeff Crompton was blinded in a terrible science experiment accidental explosion. He lost three fingers from his left hand, one eye, and 6 toes from his left foot. Fortunately, all is ok because he is right-footed and can still play a bass drum. This probably just puzzled AfricaBrass; I wasn't around in 2006, when he last posted. I've heard a lot about you, though, AB, and am glad you're back. And even after the accident, I still have three toes on my left foot. It's cool. Quote
