As was I, dude. I just chose not to post much in it. [:'(]ORIGINAL: Terminus
Again, I was there for the very first one, created by Robert Trapasso back in the heady days of stock WitP. That's irrefutable fact.
Convenient, considering that THREADs I and III were both lost.

Speaking of lost THREADS, shall we start lobbying for a closure of this THREAD at 1,000 pages to prevent a similar fate? [&:]

RE: THE THREAD!!!
I should think so. If we ask Bill Olson nicely, I'm sure he'll oblige.

RE: THE THREAD!!!
I was there for the move from THE THREAD!! to THE THREAD!!!, even through I have been around since 2006, I really wasn't active until a couple of years ago, hence the low post count. But, you guys have taught me a lot.
I love the don't take anything seriously on THE THREAD, yet a way for us to communicate what is going on with each other.
Thanks, guys!

RE: THE THREAD!!!
I'm not quite a plank owner in THE THREAD!!!, but I knew all of the plank owners. I started contributing just after the original incarnation was removed due to "Naked Nuns". [:D] I lost only around 400 posts in The Great Abridgement, and I've been lucky enough to start off two new incarnations. Not a plank owner, but a crusty old timer. [8D]

Air show over the weekend. I took the family up in a B-17H called Aluminum Overcast. What a blast [8D]
If it ain't broke, don't fix it!

... and I was a lurker for ~4-5 years until AE was released. I've "only" been part of three (maybe four?) of the incarnations.

Hello friends. Back home. Home sweet home. [:)]
Nice trip?
Yup. But still nice to be home for a while. [:)]
There has been a little too many road trips so far this year.

$435 a pop, for 3, for a 20 minute ride. Another check off my bucket list [;)] I'll post some pics in main when I get a moment at home. Sitting in the nose while banking was...awesome [8D]

Truth be told, I was a lurker for 6 years or so after joining. I think most of my first posts (I posted in 2002 once or twice with WiTP originally) were right around the time AE came out.
Still, I'm giving myself credit for those first posts. So that makes you a Viking noob. [:'(]

Hello Tithe! Iam back!
Howya doin', Odin? Long time no see. How's the Kendo training going?
Hey Kendo Training will become a restart this week. Unfortunately, because of too many Business and too much health problems(mainly my discs in the back) i wasn´t able to keep up a steady Training.
Still at 5. Kyu but i hope i will be ready for 4. in december.
Others which began with me are already going for their 2.Kyu:-)
Aside from that, everything ok....
And i have a new car!!![&o]
And you?

In April I tested for and received my Cho Dan (First Degree Black Belt) in Tang Soo Do Karate. I thought of you and your Kendo training this past Spring. Kendo is one of the more traditional and beautiful martial arts out there, IMO.
Other than that, we're selling our house, I've left my job, we're moving to Texas and I'm growing a beard.
Not necessarily in that order. [:D]
