So I see this is a mismatch of Dustin's old site (CF Refugees?) and the old CFN forum.  Curious as to what happened to Dustin's old site and where he is?  I didn't stop by often but I appreciated the camaraderie between the longtime posters.  Heck I didn't even know about Big Matt until awhile later RIP.

Hey Gigem good to see you.

Shiner has been here a couple times, I'd expect he might come by now that the season's about to start up.

I don't think Bon ever showed up here, although I told him about it on Dustin's site.  Dustin himself made one or two stops, called himself Big D I think.  :)

I think Ski and WC4E might have stopped by once too?  Would love to see those cats again.  

#11 didn't ever come over though.

What?!!!
That’s crazy!
But true.
Weird how some things that are really important in life - like a job or a love or a particlar home or car or a faithful dog can be so fleeting, but something as seemingly insignificant as a coffee cup or an end table can last forever.
Life is weird.

You know what else is true?

It's 11 AM, and OU still sucks.

Probably too busy doing something immature and irresponsible to get here sooner.
Like working.

I lurked for a few months during the 2004 season before jumping in, but then I just never left.  I remember my first post being after the Rose Bowl game in Jan 2005  when people on these boards were giving Texas props for the close win, when everyone I knew in real life was snickering saying we "got lucky" in that game (I worked with a lot of Aggies, of course).     Not sure if that makes me still a "new" poster or if I have achieved senior-ranking yet but I definitely wasn't on the boards back in the 90's, as I didn't even know back then that I would be a longhorn.   

I wasn't raised a longhorn fan, but when I was chosen to be among their student population, the football spirit washed over me and hasn't ever left.  I had never attended a school with a decent-to-good football team before, so it was a fun time to be a "new" fan back in those years.

I like getting lucky.   Ain't nothin wrong with getting lucky.
I imagine a lot of them dern Aggies just wish they'd get lucky.

Trust me, we wish we could all be so lucky.  I think luck has a lot to do with it.
