Somewhere in the upper sixties for me. (member number)

We used to have OSO parties at Hooters on 28th street in grand rapids, mi. The original board owner would send shirts, stickers, and other goodies to give a way.

Ahhhh...The good ole days!

Well, that's what I originally thought. There was an issue with the database a few years ago and it started saying I was number 69.

I do!
He's still around.

I was also a lurker for a few years. At first I was kind of overwhelmed with some of the knowledge on the board. And also, alot of the guys on here knew each other and boated together ever weekend - felt a little uncomfortable posting until I got to know people. ( I wish SOME of the newbies would realize how that works).
I'm not a Charter member by any means, but those stickers were cool.
About a year ago, I saw a guy pulling out of a carryout in a white pick-up with a sticker in his back window, and didn't get a chance to catch up to him and introduce myself.

Hey Steve - How about some stickers for some of us that remember the old days - maybe name and join number??
I'll wear them on my truck and boat.
What do you think?

I lurked in 1999 and joined in 2000. I met some guy's that had a WPM Cat and I told them of my experience's with a West Coast mfg and they said you have to go read what is on this new forum.

You are #72. Like Craig said, run the cursor over your name and look at the lower left part of the screen.

I was around 2200 in early 2002. Screen name then was CDaddy. Then I rejoined in late '02 and my number has been 6901 ever since.
