I miss Bruce Dorskind

I can't figure out if this is a reunion thread or a budding Dean Martin roast.

I like both of them (personally).

Peter Chow. LOL

Barkman was awful. Bruce is knowledgeable.

But nobody - and I mean NOBODY - beats Peter Chao.

Marshall and I didn't get along all that well, but looking back, some of his posts were pretty funny. They had absolutely nothing to do with baseball cards, but they were funny.

Yeah this was hysterical.

"Once again doll smart remark about being introduced throwing up at a party. When was the last time you were spanked? Perhaps a few taps will change your perspective and you may lighten up a little on your obvious frustrations."

"Did Shoeless Joe ever play in the majors without shoes. If he did, how did he avoid getting spiked." (link)

Chao is the Babe Ruth of posters. I still can't tell if he was serious or if he was trolling, but that was magnificent.

An Attorney named Peter Chao from the San Francisco area showed up on my potential list of contacts.

I could not refuse that chance

Ask him if he still carries around expensive cards in his pocket.

I would have to say I miss Marshall the most though. And don't forget to Bring the Noise.

I think the Board is a much better place without Bruces, Chao and the Barkman. I do really miss Joann and Elliott. Julie was just weird. Hal and JC both had divorce problems which resulted in their disappearance from the Board as well as their collections, at least that was the word I heard. Both were great collectors and I enjoyed dealing with both of them. I am sure there have been other collectors who have had that happen to them and are no longer around.

What happened to Julie? (I would call her eccentric, and there's nothing wrong with that)

I was digging around for something on an old back-up drive, and found images of JC's old collection. Pretty amazing stuff.

Back on the old board, the live chat section was vibrant. Almost every night there was 12 - 20 people in there. Folks that would never post much on the front pages would be very active on the chat board. Some real funny folks used to play in there. Trevor H, Wes L, Richard W and Quan come to mind.

On big auction nights some of the old guys get together, and some of them don't normally post. It's a lot of fun.
