Yeah, and you too for that matter. Great to hear from you and I hope whatever you're masking isn't so much of a burden. Now where's that Jive Ass Mother Fluffer gone to? He's about due to pop in this thread I reckon

No, not much going on there. I registered and made some posts over the years. It is appreciated, but would always struggle to recapture the magic of FW. I wonder, if FW had never died, what it would look like today. Bunch of old farts complaining about the kids these days I imagine

Thanks to Sky for pointing me to this thread.  First, I'm kinda glad not to have been mentioned by name (or alluded to by D Bond).  Second, I've thought over the years of what made FW so special. I really do think it was just a lightning-in-a-bottle thing. Can't be replicated. Can't even really be described. It was special. One of the early examples of what became known as "social media."  When I see my kids deal with stuff online, I think back to some of the same kinds of things happening on FW! (BTW, my oldest daughter was born the year Falcon 4 came out. She's almost 21 now.) Finally, I wish nothing but the best to all those fellow former Frugalites out there. Even the ones who hated me... and that I wasn't particularly fond of back in the day.  Take care everybody.

By the way, looking on Amazon, I think the leading contender for the book written by Mark Bush is "The Nudist's Guide to Shingles." I'm waiting for my delivery of eye bleach before looking at the preview.
