..nobody really was, but I've been wondering about him. I don't have his email anymore. Hope he's well and warm.
The local weather station up near him is reporting overcast and 29 degrees with a slight north wind. A local webcam shows a slight dusting of snow:
Anybody heard from the old goat lately?
Here he is, alive and well on Facebook

BULLCRAP ALL BULLCRAP- REMEMBER ALL THESE LIARS SO WHEN THE SHTF WE DON'T HAVE TO HESITATE TO KILL THEM ALL--
First i'd like to say we need at least 125,000 jobs monthly to cover just the 18 yr olds entering the workplace that leaves 127,000 jobs their number, considering christmas hiring tha usually creats 3-400,000 part time jobs that leaves a loss of jobs at nearly 1/4 million and they have the balls to lower the unemp percentage--big balls very big balls--

(In my best Chief Dan George dialect):
My heart soars to know he's feelin' so good.
I don't believe those are his words, that post is much to pleasant to be TDD.
AND IT SHOULD ALL BE IN CAPS.
AMMO UP!

Oh, Doom and Gloom Tedd went further back that that. I'm not sure if it's just an on-line persona, or if he is like that in person. But I guess if he was like that in person he would have been institutionalized by now.
I do hear from Ted but not for some time now.
I hope he is well.
I had the opportunity to work with him for a few months back in 2008. He was a fairly pleasant guy to be around and work with, definitely opinionated about a few things that could get him riled up a bit. But he had a knack for telling stories that you would leave you shaking your head with incredulity and disbelief that he could actually believe what he was telling you.
My favorite one is about an ice fishing trip he had. He's from somewhere back east and had driven his car out on a river that has an immensely strong current to ice fish when the ice broke apart and he began to float down river with a few deer that had wandered onto the ice. He floated down river for several miles, past towns, bridges and a navy shipyard with people waving at him the entire time. Upon reaching a harbor the tide came in and pushed him back up the river to within 50 feet of where he had started and he was able to drive right off the ice and head home.

I do believe it was my home state, New Hampshire that the young Teddy hailed from...B-)
He noticed my picture on "linkedin" and said something about what happened to all my "goldilocks". My hair was never blond, but it is mostly grey now.
He did that once before too. a message popped up on linked in and he was asking how I was or something.
