Slick 60's

I joined Facebook. I have only been using it for about a week. I am not sure if I like it, yet, or not. It is kind of like removing all the locks from your doors and advertising that you don't own a gun. If you have never used Facebook, imagine that, every day, you go out to your mailbox and find it stuffed with Hallmark greeting cards, political cartoons, and requests to join pyramid schemes.
I liked this group while I was in it; at least before it became racist. And am thinking of returning. But I am not sure. Plus, I don't know if you all are ready or willing to have me back.
I still have the '65 longbed styleside with the straight 6, bored out to a 247.
And I still have the coyote.
And I am still the same old cantankerous troublemaker I was before.

How do you figure this group is racist? I almost choked when I read that.

come on back doc, some of us miss (or like ) a little controversy

Please don't misunderstand me. I enjoyed being in this group for the 10 years I was here. I enjoyed all the help fixing my slick. I enjoyed the banter between all the members. I enjoyed most of the pics. But, during the last few months of that time, I noticed a certain hostility in the posts; a certain defensiveness from a very few members. It culminated in a thread that I initiated and that was allowed to go too far.
About 8 months after I left, I needed some information about my slick, and, remembering a certain thread discussing what I needed, I looked up this site. I first noticed that the thread was missing (My own fault). But while I was checking around, I noticed that the "bad apples" did not post again after attacking me. And then I felt guilty about using this site all those years and then leaving without giving a reason. I thought "Why did I let a couple of racists get the better of me. Could I have been that thinskinned?"
So, after a discussion with one of the moderators at another location, I decided that, if I could remember my password, I would again visit this forum.
Today, after about 800 tries, I remembered my password. So hello everybody. I hope I wasn't too much trouble the last time. And I'll try to do better this time around.
But probably not.

Welcome back... I for one will look forward to your posts.....always thought provoking.

Welcome back. Hope you stick around.

Welcome back Doc. Pull up a seat and stay awhile. Good to have you back!

welcome back doc

Mike

Good to see you back Doc Pepper
Though some of your technology is way over my head
I do enjoy reading your post

My sister lives out in Phoenix
Someday I would like to visit her & meet up with some
Arizona Slicksters ....

hey Doc
glad to see you on the forum again

not sure about the race card comment, ive met a lot of members over the phone and in person and never got that picture
easy to sit behind a keyboard,stir up $hit with a comment and then never return, lots of that happens online

frankly i dont give a rats behind if your martian,klingon, vulcan or green with purple stripes, none of that matters in here.

thanks but no thanks. i like it here.so far i have resisted.
i do remember what the borg said about that.
still i have heard that some posts there quickly heat up and explode
been lots of talk about fb in here lately
not convincing me.



hey its chat room tonite stop on in

Welcome back Doc hope you stick around

you where one that I could remember best Doc you and your nice truck at Slickstock 2008
other than Pat Pulling his valve cover off his truck to use in the races, then putting it back on to drive home!

Hope I pulled the Right Doc and right truck up!

Welcome back Doc. Sometimes we tend to post things without thinking the consequences all the way thru. Computers can be problematic as well as handy. This site is way nicer than most on the WWW. Stay and enjoy,

New to facebook? Welcome to 2005!

I'm a relative newcomer as well. My truck is in pieces. Hope to remedy that when a large box arrives from Summit Racing.

WTF? Mark Zuckerberg And The The Left-Leaning Social Engineers At Facebook Probably Consider It "Racist" To Be A White Male & Drive A Pick-Up Truck. If Somebody Posted A Picture Of Their Truck With A Gun-Rack In The Back Window They Would Probably Get Banned!

Welcome back Doc, it's good to see the old campaigners coming back !.....

Sorry, but some of you have the wrong Doc. In 2008, my slick was recently out of the rebuild shop and had no bed on it. I drove it that way for about a year while I worked on the bed, which kept falling under water every time it rained, because I inadvertently located it in the lowest part of he backyard.
I actually have a self-pic in Facebook, for those who aren't sure which Doc they are welcoming back. The coyote is the one in my lap.
Since some of you have the wrong Doc, does that mean your welcome doesn't count?
