Whatever happened to TOG? (The Old Geezer)
I generally do not follow this group anymore and
I'm just wondering where he has been hanging out.
Has anyone read his posts in any other Usenet group?

He used to post here about the wonders of The Beach Boys
and Brian Wilson in particular.

I struck up a pretty good friendship with him because of the BBs
We traded some CD-rs, seemed like a good guy off the internet.

Is he still alive?

If true, it would be a shame. If true, it would be unfortunate, unlike your
continued meth-addled, miserable excuse for an existence…

2022 and this is what we’re left with on rmgd…🫠

Have a grate day! ###

I will never understand why some people insist on using their keyboards as instruments of hate.

John O. Butlin, I just found a very old email from September 2003 from
him that I printed out with this group as the subject and body.

OK. Couldn't find an obituary, so that's good. He is from Buffalo NY, right?

Before he became an old geezer, er The Old Geezer, traditional rmgd moniker
was Sjerbobphl…

From 19 years ago…

I didn't know that, I do remember that screen name. Are you sure? Although your link is great,
it really doesn't prove the connection.
I thought sjerbobphl was someone else who played guitar and I do remember sjerbobphl
explaining the moniker.

I really should have emailed him first to see if he is OK. But for the sake of real content here on
rec.music.gdead instead of these damn trolls such as "hester holt" for those few folks who
enjoy this old place, I did what I did.
