LOL..thrifty...Sarge removed himself from the forum. Matt is above that sort of childish stuff...and we should remain in total AWE at his almost Diety level understanding and intelligence.

YOu know Liz....I still remember (and wish I could find) the thread from years ago where TarpRat explained how he got his name.....

And I thought I was going to toot my own horn...but I think its just the breakfast quesadillas working their way through the system (LOL).

I am actually sorry I missed Sarge's better years....Must have been a hoot. I have chatted with him a few times, and I know Daydreamer ran into him.

Seemed like a pretty cool guy. And the fun thing is some of the stuff he said he did....guess what mouseketeers...HE DID.

OOOOH...good gut feelings...(LOL).....Or just a FEELING....

Well lets say I have talked to him, he uses the proper phrases and knows from what he talks. If he was lying to me....he knew a whole lot more than most people.

But you know me...the evil conservative I am one of those people who tends to trust someone (but verify) until they prove I should not trust them.

Regardless of what he may have put on here. I enjoyed chatting with him and I have to admit his faith is light years stronger than I have gained. I guess that means something to me.

But seeing as how he is in PA..and I am VERY much in Georgia the accusations we are the same person is laughable.

Tilt? Speaking of media stupidity...how but commissioner Holland and that hullabaloo over his son? Talk about blowing a nothing case into a story.

XL400236 - He once put on his info page an invitation to anyone visiting in the LA area to do a hike together. He listed a telephone number. I checked on the number. It was at a Zen Office or whatever in LA.

Sometime later he deleted the hiking invitation and the telephone number. I asked him in a post if we really would have reached him at that number in LA. He did not reply.

The only way I can figure it, is that he was working out there temporarily, since like you say, he lives in PA. Do you have any information on this?

XL I too chatted with him. I was one of the few who actually defended him when he faked his own death. He has the mentality of a two year old. Everything HAD to be all about him. Even when he isn't here he'd e mail me and complain how he was being abused here and try to post by proxy through me.

He is an ass hole. Plain and simple and unadulterated.

I keep hearing this guy's name bandied about. How and why did he fake his own death? Ya'll got me curious now.

Because he is an attention starved child. Just do a search for "sarge" and you'll learn more about the guy than anyone should care to know.

I will admit I was not here during some of those times. And I am certain there have been unique people like him before and there will be more in the future.

The really sad thing is if someone is that stuck on "WHAT" they are, they are missing out on trying to find WHO they are.

Rather than be pi$$ed at them I usually pity them. I have to deal with a slew of people like that on an almost daily basis. LOL There is one guy who is a Vet with the full ride for Psych disability. Hell he is normal and knowledgeable as heck until....the month surrounding his Annual Evaluation. Then he goes BAT S--T crazy.

I see that alot. And IMHO it comes down to losing sight of what really matters in life. If you keep a watch at people out there you will see those who either want TOTAL CONTROL !!!! or they want to gain control by being the TOTAL VICTIM.

Sad ain't it?

But anyway this is a suck up thread to Matt and we are degrading it to a Sarge thread. He is gone...or maybe not (LOL) that's his thing.

If we are going to degrade this thread I think we are all a bit more creative (LOL).

Well have a nice day.

You know the difference between covering someone's ass and kissing their ass is just a matter of perception.

A lot of time the preception of what a person is can be heightened by our own excellent ability in that area. I have found really picky Medics (i.e. tend to see flaws in other medics) tend to be good ones...NOT SAYING anything....(LOL)

Laq you ever hike with someone who developed BAD gas only in the DRIVING rain? Just about the time you get buttoned in and are comfy and dry...IT happens.

"Laq you ever hike with someone who developed BAD gas only in the DRIVING rain?"

I am of who you speak.

You gotta let it brew and marinate, before you share.

The best ones are developed after you've been on the trail for a weekend, then stop by the local grease pit for the burger (extra cheese and onions), beer, onion rings, fried mushrooms, cheese sicks, fired zuc.; oh yeah, throw a fruit plate in there as well (playing the role of appetizer).

All ABOARD!!!!!

LOL...5 AM Stopped at a GREASE pit resturant in Terrel Texas a few hours later (not revealed because it would establish our speed) we are in Birmingham AL. We stopped at a gas station and most likely left a system damaging drop off.

At the bottom of each thread after the last post, there is a link "<< back to Trail Talk main page." It used to always refresh (or update) to the current date and time, the list of threads on the main page. But, for several months it quit doing that. It would only happen with a new post or, using IE, if I would click on the "Refresh" button.

Then, a few days ago it returned to doing a "refresh" each time I would use your link, "<< to return back to Trail Talk main page." So I posted on 5/23 to inform you.

Yesterday it reversed again. Now it no longer "refreshes" when I use your link to return. So, to refresh the screen, again I have to use the "refresh" button.

I'll be able to try it on another computer early next week.
