Did I Forget The Secret Handshake or Who is Whitey

Is this some cryptic lost member with the keys ?. I wake up one day and there are like five or six posts from a nondescript “ Ex Member “ without any backstory or clues. I know who I am but I feel like I forgot the secret handshake here. I know I’m a peripheral player on this site but how does this work ?

Likely you're experiencing a phenomenon that happens occasionally here where your not seeing the most recent posts anymore. When this happens you can go to the start page and at the top right click on "last post" to update your page and get back to recent posts. I think a lot of us have had this happen over the years and no answer why.

"Ex Member Whitey" is the late Whiten Hansen a deceased member and a really great guy.

Thank you sir you’ve brought my horizon back up, it was sunk for a while. The strange thing about this was the forum flipped over in a few minutes while I shut down. I knew about hitting the ‘ last ‘ option but never even occurred it would happen so quickly. Looks like Whitey was a major player here sorry I missed him

Whitey was a good friend and very active. A renaissance man who was retired USAF, a master mechaiinc, a machinist, and even designed western boots. Whitey once designed a pair of boots for David Pedersoli and David sent him a custom built Pedersoli muzzleloader as a gift of appreciation!
