@thistlebloom you beat me to it! I also lay awake last night trying to figure the right words to start just such a thread. Bless you :love I told my DH and he was sad too. He knows who the FAMOUS Nyboy was just from hearing me go on about him over the years. Lordy he will be missed. Who else is going to make me frequently reply, TMI Alex TMI o_O !!! Nothing was off limits. :epLOL

How about, "I found this on Craig's List, do you think this is a good deal?" and it would be some bit of rusty garden gate or something that was priced astronomically high and all you could do was grin and shake your head, knowing he'd probably buy it anyway, no matter how much it costs.
..and he would paste the E N T I R E listing, comPLETE with ALL of extra stuff. :gig
Gosh, I will miss you , Alex!!!!
RIP Brother :hugs:hugs:hugs

Carol Dee, I was just telling a friend about the TMIs we'd usually throw at NY when he would insert certain subject matter in his posts. And he'd just roll on, as nothing he said was ever meant to offend, nor was he offended by our TMIs. Loved that about him! He never had an agenda he was pushing, he was just plain, simple NYboy. Unvarnished, sometimes uncouth, but always charming.

When a hi jacked thread got to socks, he suggested I needed a $26 pair of them. Later in day it occurred to me to PM him. I told him to NOT send me a pair. He was going to. That was Alex. Crazy nut that wouldn’t hurt anyone but himself. He will be missed.

No, he was wrong. I looked at those $26 socks. They belong-if they were sweaters-in the ugly Xmas contest.

So,glad I PMed him as now I would feel guilty for not wearing those hideous things..... although he would have been laughing about it.
