A brief Centurion retrospective. God speed, Centurion!

quote:

<“Centurion”> One who is in command of a century. I got the name from a friend who says I still act like a stiff-necked Marine.

I'm not real hugable. A flaw on my part. And a girl just gave me a fat lip. I'm having a good day.

My hobbit name is Till Moss of Lake-by-Downs. My elven name is Elessar Nolatari.

…see if you can buy anything without a certain sense of your own materialistic needs.

Maybe. I just hope that they're not sacrificed for ethics.

People know that I normally travel armed. … Leave a live round under the sofa cushions, or put a hole in the screen in their bathroom and a shell casing on the floor by the toilet. For some reason that seems to have friends and family calling my machine for weeks.

I've never looked at any one's infra-red laser (IRL) without their permission.

As an itinerant lurker, I was here some time before I posted anything. However, I never thought of myself as a n00bie. As always, I recon the area before I let others know of my presence. I've posted relatively few times, but I'm sure I've ticked a number of you old-timers off on more than one occasion. Some intentional, some not. I am admittedly fairly outspoken. That said, I will have to choose path number 2. I was raised in a family that did hunt, and I've always been somewhat good at it. Later in the Corps, and other military activities, I learned to use scopes and other fun things. (Slightly nervous about the metal in Leto's body, but that's his fault anyway.)

Does worrying about one's newbie status confirm one's place as a newbie?

Come see, me, or I will start yelling obscenities at the TV?

I understand how hard it is to tell someone to turn off the machines and I wish that any poor words of mine would make you feel better.

Come on, Mack! You know, as well as I, that not being dead means more than breathing in and out. If you want to remain 'not dead,' go forth and live.

<I blame Mack for>Hair styles of the 60's Disco from the 70's I will accept full blame for the 80's However, none of this compares to the horror and atrocity(?) that comprises the entity known as the Olson Twins! {How can you even sleep at night?}

I guess that makes me really old and retired at 41.

Still naughty. Still loving it.

What's with all the sheets?

I made it home. And, yes, Dorothy was right, there really is no place like home.

Perhaps Centurion was mostly before my time here, but it is still so sad to know we have had the passing of a Hatracker.......

Ditto on that....
