So, wonder what all the OGs are up to these days

Were you the one that ran it into the ground?

don't think so. I was a moderator... don't remember all the details but it had to do with a military comment, where it was construed as me being anti-military (while I was serving in Iraq) and Chad banned me. I sold my Camaro about a year before I was banned, and just went on to different sites - so I don't know if I was responsible for running it into the ground, I just left.

Nevermind - thought you were the guy who took over the site after Chad.

[MeenZ28]

I'm not sure where this came from as I never said I didn't miss you and you never said you missed me but it is good to see you again.

Don't lie.

PC was really the only site I posted on, and since then I've been active on three boards. I have a combined 320 posts on all three since 2004.

You ruined my life by banning me. I sat at home for a solid two weeks crying, then lost everything I had on a gambling trip to Vegas which was supposed to lift my spirits. Currently, I'm typing this from a borrowed smart phone using free internet at a local McDonalds that I live behind... no really, like behind it, in between the dumpster and a broken wooden gate that's supposed to keep the racoons out.

[Bernotas05]

wtf

[MeenZ28]

LMAO!

LOL, I have to give credit where credit is due. That is an awesome reply!

I know.

Things haven't changed much. I'm still an *******, just on a much larger scale.

For those that don't remember me, I was a founding member of PC (or so I like to think), and joined shortly after I bought my 1997 RS back in...I don't know, 2001. I'm not sure if PC was up by then, but we all found each other through cardomain (do people even have those anymore?).

I was the first military member, and remember most of the military members when they first signed up. For instance, I vaguely remember when Bernotas05 joined, I think it was the Marines. We had a few more that left, but I'd have to see their names, because I'm drawing a blank.

The terms of my banning had to do with a female member that said something pro-military, and I responded with something that Chad didn't agree with and he banned me. At the time I was stationed in Okinawa, so that would have had to have been somewhere between 2003-2005. I sold my Camaro in early 2005 and bought a C5. It sucked and was a giant piece of shit. Got rid of it and went Ford. Bought a Lightning, had that until about 2008, and now I'm in my current car, a rusty old SN95 Stang.

I've been through a few daily's too. When I started with PC I was into bikes, so I had a 954RR, then went on to a 97 Ram, then had a 95 Celica and a 97 Fairlady 2+2, then came back stateside and rocked just the Vette for a while, before I got a 06 Accord. Moved on from that to a 06 325xi, and then a 09 Eddie Bauer Explorer.

I can't stand Chevrolet's new line of cars, I think the new Camaro is dumb looking, and the retro look was played out when I got sick of looking at the PT Cruiser. The new C6 isn't bad, but the whole $80K price tag is a total turn off.

That's the car speech.

Personally, for those that care. I was in Afghanistan and Iraq for just about all of 2003 and 2004. Was due to get out of Active Duty in 2004, but was stop lossed and didn't get to leave until 2005. Did the Reserves for a while, and that ended in 2009.

Now, I basically feed off the ignorance of pro-veteran organizations and flaunt my achievements on a cardboard sign while standing on various street corners. People buy into it, I get lots of money and don't have to pay taxes on any of it!

I tried law enforcement too, but I felt like I looked too much like an extra from the Police Academy movies with Steve Guttenberg, so I left and tried my hand at begging. Here, take a look for yourself:
