NDinL.A.

[GO IRISH!!!]

Funny that you mention the chaos. I guess that is about the time I started reading this site. And I read tons of posts from way back before I registered. Seems conversations would all start out civil, then shoot straight downhill, until SoCaldomer (I think he was a mod) would have to step in and scold everyone. It actually was hilarious. I remember the NDinLA/NDMontana "debates." Good stuff.

ND and GoIrish were the first two that stuck out in my noggin. TMQ10, Bubba, JPham etc.

SirDishands of the House of Palmolive, Doctor Old Man Mike, JK, BGIF...the list goes on...Diamonds. Too much fun.

In a way, those were fun times just for the sheer spectacle of some of the arguments. I would see a post that would attack NDinL.A. and I would start hitting the refresh button every 10 seconds just because I couldn't wait for him to get in the room and respond. Remeber when Wabash used to bring out his "Troll Smashing Club" and you and I would just sit in our lawn chairs eating Cracker Jacks (prize inside) and enjoy the show? Don't get me wrong, this place is much better now and a happier and more positive place to be thanks to all the MODS, but we had some good times back then too.

And thanks to all those who tried to advise the noobs and the trolls how they board operates. The board is much more readable today.

Glad to see The Marshall's back in Dodge.

Hey ND, did you post anything about how your weekend went other than a few blurbs here and there in different posts?! Interested to see what your thoughts/reactions on campus was like...

Baby NDinL.A. arrived 2 weeks ahead of schedule, late Tuesday night (11:47 p.m.). My wife had a very smooth labor (all things considered) and baby Alyssa Rae is healthy little girl (and I mean little - 5 pds 14 oz; 20 inches though). Here's some pics:

Alyssa Rae and her mom, right after delivery:

Better start hitting the books, dad. In 13 years you've got algebra problems to explain.

Congratulations NDinLA!!

A very beautiful, healthy baby. I wish all the best for you and yours!

(on a MUCH smaller scale) fantastic job on the site... You are the nice balance of reason and authority that some of us knuckleheads (like me) need on here.
