    I saw this on After Hours. So it got me thinking. Over the years we have had some great contributors that have left. We even have had some that have been reincarnated and some more than once. A few were great contributors two I miss on the discussion are Bob Charles and New Beef Farmer although NBF was a reincarnation of a previous contributor. He got banned for overreacting and never came back.

    Bass Reeves actually existed.... I thought he was a makey uppy name as well.

    Wikipedia

    Bass Reeves (July 1838 – January 12, 1910) was the first black deputy U.S. marshal west of the Mississippi River. He worked mostly in Arkansas and the Oklahoma Territory.[a] During his long career, he was credited with arresting more than 3,000 felons. He shot and killed 14 people in self defence....

    I think our Bass has shot more than 14 in self defence at this stage....

    Bob Charles and Relig were two good posters alright..... gone but not forgotten...

    Just do it. He was a part time suckler farmer from Clare that was getting ready to convert to Dairying.

    Hope he succeeded in achieving his goal and is happy at it.

    It's crazy how long people have been posting on here over the years. I often wonder about Bob Charles as he just stopped posting and never closed his account, which is unusual. I propably miss his and Reiligs contributions the most.
