For whatever reason I find myself thinking about King Jim. Are you still around? I miss your voice on the forums.

I always loved reading conversations that King Jim was a part of. Doubly so if he and Pete were in the same thread Smile Those two are a little more experienced in the game of life than me, and it is cool to see their perspective Smile

Indeed. Where are you, Jim? And what are you doing/playing? Am I gonna have to get Sue to give you a call?

I know he's a big shot in Mesa, so the good news is that my quick search of the Mesa obits came up blank.

I always had a soft spot for King Jim as well. He was one of the first players I played mp diablo with and was always one of my few Hellfire buddies. Besides he is the only member of this community who is older than I amSmile Therefore, he needs to be located SOON!

Sue (magi) is speaking to him even as I write this. Sounds like he is doing good well*. Hopefully a new game will come down the line that reunites many of us "oldsters". Smile

And on that note:

Does anyone have news of Doc aka Dr Douglass? Huh

The most recent sign-on for any forum I know about for him was September 23, 2009. He did have health issues. And one of my last conversations with him was about how we could ensure our respective wills were structured right so that his wife and my under-age children would be looked after.

Oh, you are still pretty much of a spring chicken. You may qualify if, as I suspect, your name was inspired by the Lee Van Cleef character in The Good, the Bad and the UglySmile

Pete, I admit to a blockage here, I have been unable to parse GEB.

I am so gonna smack my own forehead when you reveal it to me ...

@ thenryb: yes, that is the genesis of my nom de Tristram.
