    Well I am new altogether. I was invited by gambitnut from Free Geek where I work. I lurked on BBF for a long time always meaning to join but putting it off. Now just feels right though, partially because all my friends moved so I had no one to talk blazers with, and again because of gambitnut.

    Thanks gambitnut and you are not at fault. I blame higher education. I was around ten when I began to like the Blazers, this was also when I stated to actually enjoy watching sports and not just play them. My dad is from Chicago and went to college with Butkis. Sports never caught on with him though so I had to teach myself everything about the games I loved.

    Yes I did. Took a trip to Europe for a graduation present. This was taken in a small park in France while I was recovering from a heat stroke.

    Thanks, it was one of my better ones. When I was walking in the parks there was a light rain shower, very therapeutic to me and then I saw that tree and it just had to be captured on film.

    It was almost six years ago since the last one... it's not like we move hither and thither at the drop of a hat :)

    It's up to you. I go there once or twice a day just to check on things. I'm probably not going to keep going to BFF because almost everyone has moved over here now. There is still a few I would like to come over and maybe they will soon.

    That's what I've been doing, too. Just checking in to see what's happening. I look forward to STOMP and a few others eventually coming here so the whole gang is together.

    STOMP and meru are two people I'd feel the community was incomplete without.

    Can't believe I'm saying this, but where's Talkhard? Hope he knows where everyone went at least.

    Don't mean to be a bandwagoner...but I do love watching everyone put their 2 cents in and me, occasionally talking Blazers and not this and that...If I could rep HCP for letting me know everyone is here, I would.

    can't wait for the beginning of the PRE-season!

    I'm pretty excited everyone is going to S2. I've been around S2 the past year and still lurked at bbf because of all the blazer traffic. Now with most of the blazer guys here it is awesome. :cheers:
