Hi all, I've been away for a while. What ever happened to Dr. Longshot? He always got a chuckle out of me.

 

[jmac_cope]

You have been away for a while! Don't dredge this up again

 

[76481]

I didn't mean to. I enjoy the rambling of a madman wether it's him or someone else.

I think he is taking a forced time out. Larry

The good Doctor is over at the official ATA Forum, complete with a picture of himself from about 30 years ago. He's giving advice that no one asked for & few will read. Six posts to date.

Go check him out!

OMG the poor man is making an even bigger fool of himself over there, he has totally dominated the forum and the responses………………………….very few. Same head bashing the wall argument he had on here, he is preaching to the choir. Really sad to see. Scott

I always thought he had a screw loose but, damn entertaining . I'll have to check him out on the ATA site.

 

[W.P.T.]

Dr Longshot just didn't know when to quit, he had (has) more combined experience over the years than many of those who would challenge his merit ... Trapshooting is the only sport where you can be in the ATA for 3, 4 ,5 years and be on the 20 yardline and know more than those who have shot for over 30, 40, or even 50 years besides competed in shoots much larger than many of them will ever know for payouts that will probably never be seen again ... Gary is on a forced time out from what has been said and has been floating around on TS.Com for awhile ... His being hushed so the ones who have all of the answers can express them to anyone who will listen, he will not be there to challenge what they say but that don't mean its all fact ... WPT ... (YAC) ...

You were great in Duck Soup Rufus.

Some folks gain great wisdom as they get older...........others just get older.

 

[Scott Johnson]

Well ol Doc is the feature speaker on the ATA site, it appears he has about 90+% of the posts and no questions, he has them stunned, waiting with baited breath. Coming to a theater near you!!!! Scott

 

[pitchpopper]

Ewwwwww......baited breath.

Anchovies anyone?

 

[davidjayuden]

Neil Winston has been rather quiet lately too, has he not?

[Bruce Specht]

Better to remain quiet and thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt

 

[oleolliedawg]

Do you think Sir Neil might have been given a short vacation too??

 

[hunter44]

I would certainly doubt it....he is a very positive contributor to this site. Dr. Longblow & nameisjoe, not so much.

I hope that the "short vacation" given to blow & joe are permanent!

 

[docbombay]

I received a PM from Neil a couple of days ago so he is still here.

Gary is certainly a character. Even entertaining at times.
Got to give him credit for not usually resorting to rudeness or name calling.

I could volunteer to take his place. I've had an interest in learning how to write creatively and have considered enrolling in my local jr. college in adult composition to see if I could at least learn to write short stories, paragraphs with some wit, hyperbole, jokes, apply to the Jimmy Fallon show as an adjunct writer, get a scholarship to some academy run by established professional staff writers in the entertainment biz, advise P.J. O'Rourke re. his writing about automobiles, and get an invite to Jay Leno's Garage.

Yeah, I could do it! No sweat!

My first topic: "The ATA Needs to Rethink the 30 Yard Line"

Second topic: "Playing At Least One Option Should be Mandatory"

Third topic: "Handicap Yardage Placement Will be Determined With 50% Weighted Influence based upon 16 yard average. The other 50% Shall be determined by earned yardage. A Conundrum that Must be Fixed."

Fourth topic: "Total Fuel Ban in NHRA. Gasoline Only"...oh, wait, that's a different sport and was answered 50 years ago. Time to dredge it up again.

Yeah, that'll do it...

"Got to give him credit for not usually resorting to rudeness or name calling"?

Apparently all the blatant lies and character assasination he put forth against Neil Winston didn't count.
