G&G For Sale

Brother Bob · 04-01-2008, 05:46 PM

Well as you know, Texas-T's thread was an April Fools joke. What you don't know is that I've contacted my attorney and CPA to negotiate a buy-out from Chris. I'll make him an offer he can't refuse. The change should be seamless. Nothing will change except the ownership of the forum and possibly a change in moderators. Don't worry folks, G&G will still be here for your enjoyment...........Brother Bob

This is an April Fools joke!

Hmmmm, OK. I thought of a lot of smart aleckie comments back but decided to play the straight guy.

We are behind you Brother Bob. We promise that at least 30% will stay here and renew our subscriptions. Well, I hope we can all stay. Well, we will come back if we see nothing has really changed....well, write to us and tell us how it is going.

I wonder if Chris owns any prize horses ?

.22hustler · 04-01-2008, 05:54 PM

Marine1, any pix of the CBI area of ops?? Dad was there during WWII. Uncle was in Mindano, and during the fight for the liberation of the Phillipines.

I'm glad to hear that you will be staying. I plan on adding "spell check" to the forum so there may be some folks that won't be able to post as fast as they used to. God love em! LOL!

ArkansasHunter · 04-01-2008, 06:36 PM

elmer fudd · 04-01-2008, 06:40 PM

OK, I spent the last 15 minutes reading over my post to try to find where the misspelled words were. All the time I was thinking "This Site DOES have spell check already where did I miss something." I finally got the feeling I was not the one you were referring to. LOL! I do find it interesting that most of the time the ones that do the flaming are the ones that misspell words. Ruins all credibility.

There are some on here that truly can not spell and I don't think it is on purpose or with ill intent. We may need to tell them that that little red line under the word means it is misspelled. Then show them how to highlight the word, right click on it and find the correct spelling. Click on the correct word to correct the spelling.

Of Course we are all staying!

I replied to this earlier, but the reply post did not appear, somehow? Strange?? Might be something I did on this end?? Again... I have some photos of CBI (China Threatre) operations, but I cannot get the "manage attachments" to work to post a jpg photo here for you, like JFK's PT 109 boat shown, in the photo below.

Well, I'm sure you already know that your in good graces with me. I'm easy to get along with and I have broad shoulders and a sense of humor. With that being said,......... Pred must go and no Texans will be allowed on this site until they pass my litmus test. Any Texan that is a Longhorn fan will be banned as soon as they bad-mouth Oklahoma. This includes former moderators. Sorry.........

I'm pretty new around here and discontinued posting on other forums, prefering this site and the regulars. I wasn't told about a "subscription". Can someone explain? Anyway, I'm not going anywhere else.

If you will look at the top, you'll see "Home", "Forums", "User CP". Go to "User CP" and scroll down to Paid memberships, on the right side. Click on it. Hope this helps and welcome to our family.

Keep this forum going. It brings together people of often differing viewpoints with a shared interest in firearms.

Hooray for you.

Mr. Mayor...

love the idea....a few big details left out...like talking with me first

DWARREN123 · 04-02-2008, 08:19 AM

Was that up with BoB or up Bob?

andrew cochran · 04-02-2008, 08:20 AM

That is very true Chris.

Well, I guess I am safe then. I am a naturalized Wisconsinite now. Been here 5 years.

I am so sorry to hear about your sensitivities with being stuck having to attend a college that far North in a Texas suburb. I know it is tough for you being a OU fan. But I want you to know that we still care about your feelings. Us Longhorns (third generation, I might add.) can not help the fact that we have the better team. Therefore, next year when we finally stop feeling sorry for you all and quit letting you all win in Dallas, I will not rub it in. I might add that you DO have a fine academic college of learning.

I just hope and pray that everyone realizes I'm just messing with Texas-T. I have relatives in Texas and when OU is down, I usually pull for Texas. That includes the bowl games. Just a rivalry thing. I don't HATE Texas!
