Default Hello Again

I'm not sure how many guys are still around from when I visited here many times a day, but I wanted to stop in quickly and say hi. I'm attempting to back in the game. I did a search for some people that I remember, but wasn't able to find many of them. Leon, are you still around? I hope to be talking to some of you guys soon as I start to get back into collecting once again.
Best Wishes all,
Bryan

Welcome back Bryan. I'm still here though my collecting and participation has been severely limited by the rotton economy of late.

Edit: Have missed that lovely Johnson Portrait avatar of yours.

Bryan--Welcome back. I thought you had been beaten unconscious in a bar-fight with Don Larsen, and never found your way home! (A few people will get that reference, e.g., Jimmy, Tim Newcomb and TBob.)

Cheers,
Mike

Hi stranger! Glad you're still alive. I thought maybe the Indians had made you jump off the top of a tall building or something. Hope to see you next year at National.

I'm still here - Don never saw it coming. I managed to survive, Jimi on the other hand got beat down.

I haven't seen TBob on here in quite some time and even did a search. Is he still coming around?

Good to know that there are still some old faces in the crowd. I will try to make it a point to bring back the avatar and even chime in a few times.

EDITED: Now I have to edit for the first time because TBob beat me to the punch. Good to hear from you.

How hard could it have been to find Leon?

Hi Bryan,
I remember meeting you at a Net54 dinner in Chicago about five or six years ago. Welcome back.

Don't think I'll be going to the national this year. I thought about grabbing Jimi and trying to make it, but that simply won't happen this time around. Next time it shows up in Cleveland I do plan to attend. Hopefully by then I will have another collection going. I kept a few things but nothing like I used to have.
I can't remember the last time I looked through ebay.

Good to see that people still remember me.

It's called Weisenheimer's Disease. There is no cure.
