    I've got to meet 4 other members of the forum that live here in Denver...all good guys and enjoy shootin the shiznit with them. PTS and I met up with Recyclethis at an auction this weekend and turns out he's helped me load stuff in my van before but we had no idea we knew each other on the forum at the time.

    Yeah me and recyclethis have been tearing apart a box truck now for 2 days. Getting all that alluminum out is giving us the fit. Now as far as meeting people I would love to have a beer with MDG but thats because his name is so close to MGD my favorite beer I think the denver crew that ive met so far is an awesome bunch of guys and we can definitly work together on bigger jobs and make some cash. You ever come to denver MDG look us up. Heck Ill let you sleep in my camper if you like

    I think that you are all great guys! I appreciate how much i've been helped (and at times tolerated) to no end. I'm not just going to bail after this fundraiser fiasco is over either... i would love to stick around here. It's not everyday that you find people that actually care and that have interesting conversations like you find here. Believe it or not, i would miss you guys if i just up and left. Wow a little gush there but i just hope that you realize how great you are! Oh and you have to give newbies a little bit of a hard time, their reactions show their level of commitment.

    I am still a newbie here and don't feel like anyone here is unfair or rude. Guess it helps that I don't have to ask questions when I can find the answers by searching. I don't post alot but read here often, offering my $.02 when appropriate. I was in different facets of IT for 12 years so I don't need many Escrap questions answered, give me a time machine and I could retire off what I have tossed in the trash(unfortunately not joking). I appreciate the info everyone passes along and enjoy the banter. I would like to have a beer with many of the people I see here regularly.

    We'd be happy to have you around.

    I, for one, appreciate that more women are showing an interest/coming into what some might consider a male dominated field.

    Plus I like the wimmenz!

    No thanks needed gameday....I hope we can both get a nice payday out of this. With all the knowledge I have gained from here, its the least I could do to direct some business to another scrapper.

    I'm confused... first off: why would i be offended? I said that i like you so it's not like a random stalking event. (j/k! but seriously stay out of my backyard)
    Second: You're kind of a whole lot of what? lol

    Denver crew...I would love for y'all to come by my yard so I can meet you. I could even throw you some business if I like ya. I get a ton of calls from people looking for us to pick up various items, mainly appliances, but I have also gotten some calls on gold mines. I refer various guys out to these people.

    PTS...come by and drop off some of your cards. Our yard manager just turned away a guy with trailer full of complete computers because we only take boards, RAM etc. I could have referred you.
