Well Maggots, Time I checked back in. I had a conversation with Woodsy (D-Day or whatever he goes by now) a few weeks ago and have not been able to shake thoughts of this group since. He told me about Nils. ugh.
I have been hiding out, mostly working a lot. I had to deal with a somewhat ugly re-lapse of my alcoholism. Some of you saw the beginning of my downward spiral. Fortunately, I bounced off a low bottom and have been sober again a couple of years. I am very lucky that Mrs Chair has stuck with me through it all and I did not jeopardize my job.
I am living in Philadelphia now, but my time is divided between Boston, Providence, NYC, NJ, Philly and AC. Not too good for a skier. I miss the West more than ever. I miss LA and I miss Mammoth more than I can say. I also love my job and it allows us a pretty nice lifestyle. Mrs Chair and I will definitely be back there someday. I have a reasonable chance of staying with my company and getting to Portland OR in the next couple of years.
I have not been able to ski too much. I am on the road so much for my job, that when I do have time off, Mrs Chair is pretty demanding of my time. I am still buying a Mammoth pass so I stay in the “club”. I now need to ski there like 27 or so days to make my unused last 2 season’s passes pay.
I looked around here and see a lot of the same old antics, but there is definitely some new craziness. Maggot Elders, Please check in on this thread and let me know who is still out there!!

You fucking DICK!!!!!
I love you man. First maggot I ever met, in the Spokane airport. You remember. Heh, remember the border crossing? Of course you do.
PM me your cellie sometime if you feel comfortable with it.
Otherwise, glad to hear you're alive and let's go skiing sometime!
Peace and love,
Joe

HOLY SHIT.....I thought it would never happen.
I heard rumors of your continued existence, just didn't think you'd confirm it (here). Sorry you're no longer in town, but sounds like you're making things work. Be sure to check in before skiing VT, otherwise I'll have to catch you one day at Mammoth, or Red, or WH2O, or one of those places.
Good to see you check in.[quote][//quote]

No I don't know ArmchairExtreme, but I thought I'd beat all the other new asshole Jongs with like 2000 posts who think they own the site, to their precious Jonging moment. But I did mean the welcome for whatever thats worth.

FKNA, man! Good to see you back. Wanna know how long you've been gone? I'm in college now. Time flies, eh? Stick around, we need more people that remember what this place was.

A,
Glad to hear you are well, all things considered. I too have left SoCal and miss Mammoth desperately. But I make it back every season on "business".
Two resounding memories:
(1) The spread you put on at your old joint in Long Beach for various maggots (Tyrone, Punani, myself, AntiSoCal, etc).
(2) The way you fucking SLAY3D a Mammoth Burger on a big pow day at Mammoth with me, Ben, and another tele kook named Chris. All while spewing more stoke than anyone. You became legend at the table that day.
Stoked you're well. If you swing thru the general Denver area, I owe you some grub.

You've the subject of, or at least mentioned in, like, 17 "Where are they now?" threads. Guess we can narrow the list to DINS and DINMS.
