Here's how I remember Muncle. Fumar drew him out in a thread about "Nude picture alert," as only Fumar could.
Muncle made me laugh a lot, even when he was being cantankerous. He was a retired old fed with a clear outlook and a complete
lack of understanding how anybody could blame The Developer for everything. I seem to remember Muncle inviting some posters
to take the highway out of town, and with Muncle you knew, even if he didn't say it, that he meant to add "and be on that highway
by midnight."
Who would have ever thought a stranger on an internet forum could worm his way into our hearts like Muncle did?
Safe passage, old friend.

Many years ago, before it was the Adkins diet and was just the carbo-cal diet (mid 70's), I determined that my daily limit was about 55 carbo-cals. I soon discovered that Miller Lite (a fairly new invention at the time) had 28 carbo-cals per bottle. At the time I was a bartender/cook in a BBQ and had full access to the kitchen. So I figured I could eat all the meat I wanted (no C-Cs) and drink 20 bears a day. I was only able to follow this rugged regimen for a month, but lost 19 lbs.
But I digress. Fumar, I've lost a ton of weight (okay, .0375 of a ton), but the chemo and radiation ain't worth it, though I feel great now and am lighter than I've been since Basic Training.
Now, I've not been asked to participate in "The Men of TOTV" calendar nor would I expect to be. However, recently I drove my latest toy to LSL on a Tuesday evening and had a couple ladies stop me to take my picture. Hey, I'm humble enough to think maybe it was the cart, but who knows. Below is a shot of my self-indulgence.
PS, since the pic, I've shaved my beard. Never did before because I had more chins than a Chinese phone book. Now it's down to just a wattle. But Jan, Tony, & Co., if you do need me, I don't do nudes.
