Tex

[scottie]

In my time on CG and CUF (this applies mostly to CG), I would have to say that Tex has been the biggest enigma. He posted a ton, was very polarizing, and with the exception of his religious beliefs shared zero information about his personal life (e.g., his age, where he lives, marital status, etc.). Deciphering personal information about him became kind of a game for some of us.

Anyway, he was definitely one of the CG all-stars, and unfortunately he hasn't jumped into CUF with both feet. Has anyone here ever met him in person?

Yea, I miss Tex. He was a combination of Indy and Snipe on steroids.

I don't miss him.

Garth Brooks is to Chris Gaines what Mike Waters is to Tex.

I miss him. He was cryptonite to the progressive Mormons.

I could never figure out how Tex got so far underneath some people's skin. He wasn't as abusive, profane or extreme as any number of other posters on CG/CUF are.

Despite the best attempts of people to lazily paint Tex and I with the same brush, I didn't really agree with him all that often -- we would come up with opposing viewpoints against others but usually for different reasons.

I think the comparison wasn't so much that you always thought alike. The comparison was that both of you seem to think your shit is crushed pineapple. I didn't think that, but that is what I have heard was the comparison.

Tex checks in regularly to search on his name and see what we are saying about him. I am sure he appreciates the shout-out. (hey Tex)

I miss him about as much as I miss Lingo. (hey Lingo)
