I believe my UG Join Date is November 2004. I remember it was Veterans Day when I joined. Dumbartons and Nickels closed in late October and I was looking for an alternative.
Man, UG was a much different place back then. Bunyon and I sort of carved a niche in the "not paying for it" venue. From 2004-2006, I was probably the most popular poster on the board. Looking back at old posts, I was actually a pretty decent writer. Then...
...I started reading my headlines and pretty much self destructed. I kind of got caught up in being gavycrav and not myself. I started going out just for the next epic post, not for the good times. I think we figured that I blew about $75k in 2005,2006,2007. Crazy stuff! And I had a mortgage and child support to pay! Jeez...
I had much publicized feuds with a couple of posters. Man, just some ridiculous stuff. I've since reached out to a couple of those guys; no response but I hope they know I'm sincere in my apologies.
So, early 2009 I "swear off" the site. Yeah, whatever. I'm still out there, just humbler. Not too much time to post these days juggling 2 gf's and 2 jobs and every other weekend with a pre-teen. Anyway...to the good times! Be safe out there amigos. And if any of you find an active stroll, let me know!!!
