Default What the hell has happened to this place?

So I have been a little busy. Life, well... it's a kick in the ass at
times. As for fishing and tying, not like I use to. But I still get
out from time to time. I have not been here on ROFF in years. I return
and what the hell? Where did everybody go? I faded away due to just
not being able to keep up. Now, no fear of that. Did you all move to a
forum or something?
I use to post under the name Goat. Nothing lasts forever but I am a
little shocked. ROFF was a flurry of activity at one time.
Really guys, did everybody jump to a forum or is this ember just
hardly glowing?

I rather like this place now -- just a few old timers gathered around
a dying campfire.

Both. There is a ROFF group on Facebook which has slightly more
traffic than Usenet roff. It's better for pictures and videos but
not as good for "conversation". And there are a few folks who have
a distrust of Facebook who keep the faint pulse of Usenet roff
beating.

roff is dead, long live roff

Well, one thing I know about roff's own masseuse magnet, if you're
still breathin', you're still kickin'. Are you still living in
Indiana ?

Yep, still in Fremont. Love this small town living, screw big citys.
You'll be pleased to know that I have acquired 2 new Chinese POS Bamboo
Rods, thereby spreading the wealth from Korean made POS'S to China, who
God knows needs more of our business. /s/ Actually, very well made rods
in my humble estimation, fit and finish as good as I've seen on any rod.
