Got your attention, I hope.... But, yes, this morning I was thinking on Rick Derris's contention that Dunwoody Dude is dead. The logic being: he went from being a top 10 or 20 poster to not posting, ever; not even from home.

I don't know, though. In addition to his workplace cracking down from the IT desk, maybe he & the wife started a family. Possibly he decided to spend any time, give any thought, to us layabouts was stupid. Who knows?

Yet we say he's dead.

What, then, of Chowgurt? Power-boarder... then, nothing. (Though, yes, he only came on-board post-CMJ Board meltdown, so he wasn't as much "family" to us as a Dunwoody Dude.) But then, consider: Gauchebag? Long-time boarder, since before he left for college; the former cmanhattan4 at CMJ. Fickerson? Not only did she board, she worked for the First Mate & was quite chummy with the Madison cohort, at least. (Possibly Chicago as well.) Even Beachy Lunchtime Musings, now Beachy? He's popped in about every six months... We think. Just like Dunwoody Dude's re-emergence was... Really Dunwoody Dude?

Where are the "dead" &/or dead Obners? What has become of them? Is Fickerson doing great things, maybe has a post-doc fellowship on the East Coast or Continent? Is Gauchebag personally responsible for reversing Bulgaria's negative population growth*? Is Beachy the new Chuck(e)d, post-spousal separation, but moreso, so with no time to brag?

... Oh, & what the hell is DJ RON PAUL WALL up to?

I remain curious.

Fickerson lives in Brooklyn now and is doing fine.


And Monty, just to settle this once and for all, that really was to the best of my knowledge the REAL Dunwoody Dude who briefly returned to the board. It was not me doing some sort of mod trick.

I think jealous jockey is the only dead obner. A better question is whether Leonard Shelby is still in jail.

Pretty sure chowgurt is fine. He was in need of friends and music.

Holy Crap. I forgot about that one. Wasn't he a tombstone engraver?

I also thought there was someone who frequented here that during an argument brought up the fact that they had progressed cancer, Pete123 or something.
