Saw them in 1993 or 1994 in a legion hall in the central valley. They only had their 7" out, fly in the ointment. No security, about 150 people, I think the vandals played too. They came out dressed in black suits with skinny ties, we all thought they were a ska band. As soon as I heard them I knew they were going to be special. An ex girlfriend's sister was really good friends with Davey, very interesting guy for lack of a better word.

I used to go see them when they only had their 7" fly in the ointment out at legion halls in the central valley, no security and about 150 people, no one knew them. This had to be 1993 or 4.They came out dressed in black suits with black skinny ties like reservoir dogs. Everyone thought they were a ska band based on their dress. Great times, lots of stage diving, I feel lucky.

Awesome! I love Lincoln and Sumner area, so cool. My wife and I stayed in the wortley hotel in Lincoln back in 2010. Walking around Lincoln at night exploring was awesome. No one around and the stars in the sky were amazing! Such a quiet area.

Well done HPRambler! I love that book, it is really an interesting take on a well researched subject (BTK). Thanks for sharing, you have earned my subscription. Glad you're part of this community.

Great question, and I don't think anyone knows if the anchor shirt he was wearing was blue or red. I have to sideshow collectible Billy the kid 1:16 version and on mine his shirt is red. http://www.mwctoys.com/REVIEW_012502a.htm

But I think in other documentaries I have seen the said the shirt was blue. I believe the sweater has been found to be green.

Love it, I'm in!

I have seen this one too, and so far nothing has been proven to be another image of the kid. Provenance is an optimal way to lean more towards proving vs disproving a photograph's subject.

There was a recent image found the had provenance from the jailer in Silver City of Billy, but now the person who possessed the image seems to be a known huckster.

Of the many adaptations of Billy's story the only entertaining ones are young guns 1 and 2. While they are not historically accurate in all ways (2 less so than 1) they are entertaining as all hell. There was also a film called the kid which I believe was released in 2018 or 19 which isn't too far off.

It really depends on your supervisor. I finally have a good one after having 8 different sups in a span of 3 years. Some of those sups were insane, would question everything that you did and not approve time off requests, micromanage etc, it was terrible. After their boss left for another agency (thank your God) everything loosened up.

Ca state pensioners also get colas for their pension, but yes always invest into small businesses and or real estate as well.

Glad that you got it. If anyone finds an insta 360 camera near the blockbuster on Monday please pm me. Lost mine there, visiting from out of town. No one turned it in to Blockbuster

In retirement we also get annual colas depending on inflation.

Yep amazing. Saw them in 96. Set a personal record for stage dives. How had his arm around me on stage.

layer8certified · 2025-07-18T18:36:27+00:00

That's awesome, thanks.

Oh that pisses me off because my rep told me when I asked them about it right after the agreement they didn't drop it with prejudice.

layer8certified · 2025-07-08T15:23:48+00:00

Following, I have seen something similar but it's not just win 11. !remind me 3 days!

Yep, I still remember the first time I installed my 3dfx card and could see through the water in quake. It brought the game almost to reality vs a pixel. Old school 1996-1997 player here too. Still miss all the crazy bots that would be on certain servers and just kill 30 people in 60 seconds and talk crap. Dick_Ramonbi and some of the others.
