I got some sad news today. Some of you knew Billh50 aka Bill Halsdorf from other forums. He passed away last night at home. He was a deas friend. Rest in peace Bill, your fight is over.

 On July 3d I asked a simple question and that was who is "Bruce". One answer. WOW he must be an impressive person. Guess what, I don't care anymore. You gents have succeeded in opening a side of me you do not wish to know. With that said I exit stage left before I open up and things happen you do not wish to be a part of.

Papaw thank you so much for the opportunity to be here for a short while. I will say Good-bye now.

I don't understand.
Tool Talk has no bias and no hassles. I keep it that way on purpose.
Even if Bruce signs on here, things will stay civil.
I do not hesitate to ban troublemakers as most members know.

Tool Talk has been going on this way since 2005.

I sent Bill an email asking for his reason for leaving, and asking him to stick with us at least until GG and MG get back online.

Sorry for overlooking this, Bruce is a regular at GG that we all like to poke fun at. He is a good guy, for a Canadian......LOL.     :grin:

I was dinking around and found there was a couple archives of the GG. Not much got archived. I couldn't get into any threads, but the titles were there in the sub forums. I figured it might jog a memory about any users that might have not found out we're over here for the time being. It's kinda like walking around in a burned building.

I have had email response from Bill and all is good. I won't go into it, but he said he will check in from time to time.

what about boredmechanic? I always liked his industry pictures

Im sure he is on a gun forum somewhere but that would be like looking for waldo just to find the correct forum.

The next thread I looked at and there he was, Howdy George.

Well, new plan. All I am going to say is work has begun to replace the old GG, and hopefully the MG as two separate sites. If I cannot swing both sites then the plan will be to run both sites as one. Running both as one site is not the direction that I want to go, I want stand alones, but we will just see where that goes.

That is all I am saying for now, but there is your update, work has begun on replacing the sites, no more waiting.

Agreed, and you should continue to frequent and support this site even after the GG and MG sites are back up! All of these small sites can benefit from memberships and activity on all of these sites. We should support each others sites.
