Just notice that I've been promoted to a "Jeterian God"...I wonder if he's hopeful of someday becoming an "Ingerian Diety"??? 1000 posts makes you a Supreme Kayblian Overlord

Imagine what noetsi would be with his supposed 140,000 posts. The first post, I'm pretty sure was chipped on wall somewhere and likely took six days to write...It was probably a game post, and he was the only one posting at the time. No one read it until the cave was excavated thousands of years later...Then they got half way through and fell asleep...

When you reach senility at age 57 you become a "noetsi clone"...
Dang, I miss the old boy. I wish he'd show up here so we can badger his saggy old ass...

I remember how much joy MrG used to get out of arguing with noetsi. It was like watching that movie "Grumpy Old Men", they sort of loved and hated each other...MrG told me on the phone once that he just loved pulling noetsi's chain...The next to last phone call we had together, he told me that he wanted me to come up and go to a game with him. "Don't worry about a thing, it'll all be on me. I can show you how to get around, I can drive, I'll buy you dinner". Just a generous man with a generous offer. I was to let him know when I could get up there, and then within a few weeks...he got a lot sicker and it never happened. I know that sierchio met him, I think more than once...I'd have loved to have had that experience. Much like having met Utah, that would have been a cherished visit...And to think, I could have watched a ball game with him at YS...
I recently told one of my neighbors that even though he's older than me chronocologically, he's actually younger because he's so active and that's kept him strong. Poor old Noetsi is five years younger than me, but he seems ancient....

Somebody will not have a big year. Somebody or two will get hurt. 121 to 140. But there'll be 650 k's to go with the homers. Embrace it.

I wish I got to meet Mr.G!!! If we ever met, we didn't know it. He just lived in the town next to me and we went to a lot of the same restaurants and stuff. I've offered him my help if he ever needed it but never got the chance to meet him, unfortunately. He was a great guy. Reminded me a lot of my grandpa, who was the greatest man I've ever met.

Oh. I thought he had posted about buying gas from the gas station you worked at, and that he had met you there...So to the best of my knowledge, no one on here ever met him in person...
