Geez, 18 years? I’ve never been a prolific poster, but glad I could contribute in some small way. Congrats, Def (and Megan).

I don't get to drop in as much as I used to but I wanted to congratulate the big Boss and all the admins for the fantastic community they continue to grow.

I used to be very active in the earlier years, until work got in the way.  Anyone who's seen my older posts will recognize the line up in this picture.  It's still my farm EDC, as it's been since circa 2008!

Leatherman ALX (with updated jaws from Leatherman about 5 years ago),  Lumapower DminiVX, Atwood Crypto and blue Vic Farmer.

Def, this is a major accomplishment, congratulations.

Thanks Nate!

Great to see you back again, even if it's just enough to say hi!

I hope all is well with you, the family, the farm and everywhere else!

I picked up a new EDC item that always reminds me of you!

Well, okay, not a traditional EDC item, but i try to take him everywhere!  His name is Dasher and we are pretty sure he's a Jack Russel mix.

Sadly the neighbor's cats have solved the squirrel issue long ago, but yeah, he is quite a bundle of energy.

At 12 whole pounds of unadulterated fury he is quite the little dynamo.  We have recently gotten him into Frisbee, which he loves, despite the smallest Frisbee we could find being large enough for him to trip over.   :facepalm:

We have a 6 inch nylon frisbee for him now and as you can see, it's almost as big as he is!

He loves it though and has a great time chasing it.

Wow! Eighteen years! Congrats, Def! You must be doing something right!

 :D :D :D :D

Thanks for creating this bizarro-internet site. Unlike awl the others, there's no fighting, no bullying, no hazing (pay no attention to the chicken and the bucket of lard), no reserved admission (which is nice, or I wouldn't be here). A place where someone registered last week gets as much respect as the founding fathers/mothers.

Thank you, too, to awl you enabling smurfs, for making this such a awesome place!

Unlike awl the others, there's no fighting, no bullying, no hazing (pay no attention to the chicken and the bucket of lard), no reserved admission (which is nice, or I wouldn't be here). A place where someone registered last week gets as much respect as the founding fathers/mothers.

Thank you, too, to awl you enabling smurfs, for making this such a awesome place!

 :cheers: :salute: :tu: :hatsoff:

We have a 6 inch nylon frisbee for him now and as you can see, it's almost as big as he is!

He loves it though and has a great time chasing it.

Funny you said that Paulo, because originally I had "blame" written instead of "credit!"

Thanks for being a willing participant in my insane ideas, and for laying the groundwork for this place!

This site and forum wouldn't exist without you setting it up in the first place!

Absolutely amazing

Thanks to Def, and all the founders and early members; plus the moderators and members past and present, who make this place the incredible place it is

And as I always say when it comes to an MT or SAK question  ???   MTo and the Wiki always have the answer - Which makes it such a great resource.
But the best thing ?    .......    :think:
The atmosphere, community, laissez-faire approach, open mindedness, support and generosity of everyone here - And that's not just on MT stuff

So as someone once said .....
Everything is awesome
