Ray Mullins, Steve Sobel, Jim Ross, Sydney Croasmun, Mike Ballard, Harrison Scott and Joel Windmiller come up a fair bit on Pacific Southwest.  In the line of thought with spouses, I've mentioned my wife Jessica numerous times on forum.

He has an account.

But he hasn't used it in a long time (he's been clear on the reasoning if you dig enough).  He also abandoned his old account.

Either Grand Booger Queen II or one Booger Queen from my former school. She is named Booger Queen Pajula.

We might as well throw Mary Hannah and Tolbs on this list if we going to do this Booger Queen/Sault Sainte John Madden business.

DON'T change Booger Queen to John Madden. Booger Queen is so beautiful when written. And Sault Sainte John Madden should be changed to Maisy.

Booger Queen should become Pat Summerall, I think this is needed.

Booger Queen should become just Booger Queen.

I've split the thread here to avoid derailing the intended subject of this thread.

I've mentioned my wife often enough, though not by name, and she appears in at least one picture I've posted (the two of us with the Stanley Cup).

I can confirm my wife doesn't have an account.  She already has her fill of road world stuff when she asks me what I'm worked on days off between Gribblenation and caroutebyroute.

Why do you want the forum to suck so bad?
We have MMM and the Finland dude we can handle Tolbs. Also Tolbs is the only aaroads user who I am friends with on my personal social media accounts so I'm biased.

He only gets mentioned in a mocking way, and often I'm the one doing it.

The mention of Gene VanD. was somewhat in line of what I was thinking. I'd noticed an uptick in Big Rig Steve references the last day or so, and I know Jim's Facebook group often gets mentioned.

I was thinking mostly of content creators -- webmasters, administrators of popular groups, oft-cited mentioned YouTube channels, that sort of thing.

Booger Queen

What? Does Booger Queen have a road-related Website? A YouTube channel? A Facebook page?

Around here, Booger Queen is what some people called Burger Queen, the regional fast-food franchise that became Druther's.

It would be really nice if people put thought into what they were posting. Maybe I didn't make the intent clear but I figured mentioning Jim or Big Rig Steve would give people the idea (which is why I mentioned Shuster and Moses; they frequently come up in discussions here but weren't what I was looking for.)


Government would be tolerable if not for politicians and bureaucrats.

Booger Queen is a word filter I just set up for yet another one of Poiponen's random female classmates that he would rather annoy all of us with by slathering her name on everything instead of just asking her out.

I've been adding to actual list of west coast road world people upthread who get mentioned here (even if just their webpages).
