Couldn't stay away, could you? By my count, this is your third iteration at TMP, and I rather hope it will be permanent from here on. But please don't make me regret that…. TVAG

Welcome back Sir. PS: what does 'The O.F.M' refer to in your username?
John the OFM	03 Sep 2024 2:09 p.m. PST
Long before I had heard of TMP, I was on another forum. One of the sillier folk started giving others "meister" titles. My persona was that of an Old Fart complaining about Kids Today. So Chucky named me "the Old Fart Meister". Then some shortened it to "the OFM said…" and I grabbed on. And history was made. It's in my email. Sadly I have since had to explain to power hungry government bureaucrats the meaning behind it. Seriously. 🤷 I guess it sounds cabalistic or Illuminati. I'm sure I'm in secret files.

Thanks, one of the deeper mysteries of the known universe has been solved!

Yes, indeed John a warm welcome back. We all need a little more in the Old Fart department.
