Hey, whatever happened to Sammy?

Big 914 guy originally. I think he worked in OC CA in the petroleum refinery industry. I saw something that reminded me of one of his posts BITD, and it occurred to me I don't think I've seen anything from him in a while.
Also, I'm not sure what his screen name was - all I remember was Sammy.

I was wondering that myself- he's listed as unregistered.

Maybe he blew a gasket and quit.

He escaped from California, and is chilling out in retirement I suspect.

I would like to see a post from him on his new lifestyle.

Too bad - I used to like his take on things.

Hopefully he’s ok.
He always seemed like one of the guys who would be turning out the lights here, so it’s a bit concerning.

I thought his KA escape plan was to Wickenburg, AZ, where I go once in a while. But I don't know him personally.

If anyone's in contact with him, ask him for a post/update on life-after-California!

I thought he'd had a heart attack or some other cardiac event.

Quit his oil gig and went to Pennsylvania to sell insurance?

He's probably hanging out with Joe Bob and trying to keep him from peeing on his lawn.

Sammy has entered the Federal Lawn Protection program... total identity change and incognito...

Beware of any new posters named Fescue.... or Crabgrass

Sammy had issues.

Problem is he never could commit to an opinion on stuff.

He was wishy-washy if not out-right wobbly on politics especially.
