Best of luck to one of my favorite EOG contributors.

I respect BOMZEE for so many reasons.

He's a demon table tennis player, an MLB devotee and an all-around good guy.

He not only tells a funny story, but he also appreciates a funny line.

One of my favorite exchanges with BOMZEE came years ago when I unwisely edited one of his posts.

The conservative BOMZEE wrote about one of his least-favorite occupants in the White House, Barack Obama.

BOMZEE spelled Barack's last name, obama.

I did a double-take when I saw "obama" so I used my EOG moderating privileges to subtly capitalize the "o" in Obama.

BOMZEE immediately spotted my handy work and sent a text message to my cell phone.

"Please don't edit my posts," wrote BOMZEE.

Seconds later, I once again edited BOMZEE's contribution, this time returning the post to its original form.

Using a lowercase letter for the first letter of the former president's last name was intended as a show of disrespect.

Okay.

Lesson learned.

Let it be known that John let's a lot of challenging verbage go here, but for many reasons, corrects and edits posts for syntax reasons. And he is in top of his accuracy duties

A lot of us are aware that most of it is unintentional given cell phones these days choose to post or spell what they want, given the auto correct features. One letter could make a big difference even without typing intentions.

Take it down bomzee. Nice to see Dell have a shot at it next month as well.

DELL DUDE should be interesting in August. Probably can expect lots of youtube videos with each selection.

Thank you to JK for rescheduling me to later in the year!

What have you done to contribute to this site pal? Tell me what you have done to make EOG a better place to visit? Examples please. Sounds like you like bashing others. BTW, that's a great way to earn respect here at EOG.

Agree.

And remember MRBOWLING300 has 12 perfect games to his credit.

He's not merely a recreational bowler.

Just told LL Kool Jake to take a hike.

I trusted DOGBALL's endorsement of LL Kool Jake.

Whoops!

I would like the opening in October. I know this will come with a lot of hatred for me. I want this chance because I cleaned up my life.. I was back in the early days of the internet . A very scrwedgambler
. It is much tougher to make a profit in the world of 11/10. I did get a lot of replies last July. I promise I am a much better human being now. I think America believes in giving a person a second chance
