You’ll have to come up with an alias. 😀

Never sick of seeing your name. Who wants to hear from a hunter of scruffy birdfeeder robbing whitetails in NY when we have The Man Made of Elk to contribute?

I second what Stumpkiller says! 😀

It is your fault Dave! You are old, experienced, and can articulate in words much better then most of us. But your right, some of us could participate much more. Maybe I will out post you in 2013!

Maybe Dave’s just old !!! :lol::lol::lol: Bullseye

David Petersen wrote: Come on, friends! I absolutely hate to see “David Petersen” on the menu of forums here–as I just noticed is now the case on all three forums, since I just hti them all–over and over and over, day after day. Well, I just can’t help myself because, sometimes, the topic is so damned interesting that I’m helpless not to pitch in my views. Other times it’s because someone asks a darn good question and nobody else responds, so I feel that I should. So if you’re sick of seeing my name and posts here, as I sure am, the more YOU post the less I will. Seriously, I know what I think about almost everything, and so am far more interested in hearing what you think, pro or con. Up with populism and democracy! 😛

I missed that, can you say it again please? :D:wink: Just kiddn.

You could always use an alias with the word “elk” in it and no one would even have a clue!:lol:

Dave –

Let’s keep the “Status Quo” – We love it and you can’t help it –haha

even if we agree to disagree with you, it is always an adult / fun / sometimes Raucous Argument ! You keep us on our ethical toes –

Thanks for all your posts in the past and looking for many more in the future.

Who are you kidding Dave? If I wanted to hear what I have to say, I’d talk to myself and actually listen. 😆 You add something to the discussions that I could not, so I will continue to blabber, so long as you continue to as well. Be well.

Alex

😀

I post way too much drivel….but will continue to do so to keep Dave off the marquee:D Ha! In all seriousness l come to this site for sage advice…you are the Sage..sorry, you have no choice:wink:

Robin

Time for the delete button. Dave is obviously suffering cabin fever way to soon or in to much Dickel. Either way he is missing something–as Alex said we are on this site to read his sage and sound advice–and besides it’s fun to argue with the MAN.

Dave

It just might happen that I will make the Kazoo rendezvous will ask you some questions on E-mail later when Lin is off. It’s a 500 mile drive–but we are looking at the schedule–:D

Darn hope I can make this work–would love to meet all of you

I guess you could post as Pete Daversen if it’d make you feel better. I imagine most folks would hear the Oklahoma in the voice you write with though and know it was you.

I’d rather lurk than write though, as I haven’t shot anything yet but paper and the high point of my day is I when don’t break another arrow. That’d be pretty boring fare for all these good people and readership would surely dwindle. So, please keep up the good work and I’m sure all of us you’ins’ll

keep showing up.

Gary

Oooh yes! Let’s all try to keep this awful person off the top of the forums!!:lol:

Dave who???

Sorry Dave, you don’t get a free pass from us, we like to read your comments! 😀

Looks like you’re asking for it here, Dave. I do look forward to your views and comments, but promise not to always agree unless I actually do always agree and promise not to turn your views into a religion. So there. Keep the words flowing and I’ll be grateful. best, dwc

I think Dave forgets some of the Marine acumen…When one of the leaders speak, we had better listen…But seriously…He simply wants all of us on here to be more involved, share our opinions…I will step it up in 2013!

I agree with the above comments, Dave. You do have much to offer from the experiences you have gained over the years. It’s good to have somebody around to keep an eye on us and steer us back to the straight and narrow (or beat us back in line if need be)…either way, your comments and suggestions are always welcome, even if just to make us think about things a little more.

Michael

It’s just that you’re so damned thought provoking,Dave…and we all enjoy your commentary! Sorry,but it’s not as interesting to hear ourselves ramble as you,David Petersen, the professional author are to hear from in this forum.Forgive us,as we’ll all try to contribute more in the future. But, you’re one of our favorite writers and one of the reasons we subscribe to TBM. “There,I’ve said,too much…” REM Wayne 🙄
