Zeke....?

Just wondering if anyone has heard from Milt...

His last log-in was 09-12-2013, and he has 29,999 posts.

Maybe he's giving us a chance to catch up with him?

I think he's quit Pelican about a dozen times. I'm sure he will eventually be back.

Milt has a history of stopping when he reaches milestones in his post count.

He'll be back when he has something worthy off his 30,000th post.

He probably suddenly realized that he's thrown half his life away posting on this board and time is sailing by.

Whoops...

So, by using math can we then surmise that you've thrown away 34% of yours?

There are worse and better ways to spend your spare time than participating on this forum. Examples are hookers and blow, alcohol in excess or move to Colorado to engage in the new industry. You decide which.

Maybe Zeke is onto something.....when people come back I am always tempted to ask what kept you?

he has at least two screen names that he uses, although one much less frequent than the other. have not seen him post in the other SN either though.

How very self-important of him. I'll be waiting with baited breath.......

I remember that about a year ago Milt was looking for somebody to hang out with.
If I was in his neck of the woods I would have gone for coffee with him. However I not am anywhere near. Perhaps a phone call to him from somebody close to him might work.....

He posts on Garage Journal every day, so he is easy to get in touch with. He seems pretty happy, and he helps people there all the time.

At least. That's just the part I've thrown away here.
