Once again we've come to the time to say good-bye to one year and welcome in another. Over the past year we've seen our members deal with every concievable situation imaginable. Births, deaths, losing jobs, getting new jobs, and even divorces have hit some of us at one time or another this past year.

Throughout everything, the one thing that I'm the most proud of is the way that, no matter what the circumstances, you folks refuse to let another member go through any situation alone. This just goes to show the quality of people that make up this website.

I would like to take this opportunity to wish each one of you the very best that the coming year has to offer for you and yours, and to thank you for allowing me to be a small part in this fantastic group of folks. Happy New Year!

Don, amen to every word. Thank you for all that you do. Most of it does not show, but guys, much of what ARFCOM is, is due to DonR's efforts behind the scenes. To all--HAPPY NEW YEAR!! [:)]

Funny, I always thought that people from Idaho were part of the in crowd. [:D]

Ar10er, I'm sure we'ed rather have you inside the tent pissing out, than outside the tent pissing in.

ar10er, as a belated Christmas gift, at the next meeting of the "Mystical Order of the Goat" I'm going to sponsor you and have you put on the list for the "Almost In, but Not Quite In" Crowd. Keep the faith, and Happy New Year.

Happy New Year Don. That also goes for the rest of my friends here as well. We are truly family, albeit a slightly dysfunctional one, but still family.

You said it for me.

I can't get over the help given to [b]a non member[/b] by a bunch of dysfunctional folks from all over the world. The response has been phenominal(sp?)

Thank You, GB.

You too Ar10er! [:)]

Thanks to all the staff at AR15.com for providing us such a kewl place to connect with like minded individuals.

May the New Year being peace and prosperity for everyone. Thanks to those serving our great country, from the guys like Wave, here at home pulling a 12 hour shift on New Years eve, to the guys serving overseas. I, and I am sure everyone here, appreciate it.

Happy New Year every one!
Including all those supporting our great nation, the staff here at AR15.com, and my attorney (without her help I'd [i]really[/i]
be broke).

May this new year bring safety and prosperity to all.

I gotta add: Thanks you guys. This year sucked really bad for me. You folks have added some humor to an otherwise dismal year.

No, they're part of the ID crowd. I guess that kinda lets the cat out of the bag on just who is the IN crowd - it's them Hoosiers.

Y'all do that in Texas too? Thought it was just a Georgia/Tennessee thing. Had mine w/Cajun rice last nite, and so am expecting a very good 2003. And wishing the same to all of the AR15ers, those who own one, those who want to, and even the trolls, for whom I wish a conversion to reality and common sense [:D]

I started this year becoming unemployed and then working for minimum wage. My x ran off with the rest of my money and I was a broken man. Now I'm married and may have an opportunity at a good job again. 2003 is already looking good for me.

A very Happy New Year to you too Don, Lord knows you are due for one!!!

Happy New Year to all.

The "in crowd" ?

That's funny.

Wish I could have made the shoot, dammit!

My bride is back to work after her surgery during the holidays and my mother survived her lower leg amputation day after Xmas, I'm busy as a tied up dog getting her and my father's estate stuff ready to get her into a nursing facility, if and when she gets well, but she did survive and I'm thankful to have parents still alive and that my bride is back on track.

P.S. My bride couldn't shop for Xmas, but, we stopped in to a Gun store to look for a Red Dot for my AK and she got me a Thompson 1927A1!!!!!!! Hopefully, I can bring it to the Hun's in the spring!

Happy New Year to one and all! I haven't been posting much since I went back to work (hip hip hooray for gainful employment!) But I still check in on the boards frequently. You just can't forget "family", and that's what you all are to me. So, here's wishing each and every one of the arfcom family the best year they've ever had! [beer]
