Please welcome our newest member, "bourbonator"!!!!

Hey guys, please welcome the newest addition to the chapter, Bourbonator (aka Troy Worner). Yes he is related to Chad but we won't hold that against him.


Troy, for those that don't know you why don't you take a minute to tell us a little about yourself. (if you don't, Chad will and we all know it won't be pretty!!!)

Howdy everyone! Guess you'll see that this is my very first post on FTE. Chad's only been telling me to sign up for a little over a year now. I just hate rushing into things.

I might as well go ahead and blow my rep/image right of the bat...Yes, Chad (Flip4ford) is my brother. There, I feel better getting that out in the open! We're actually step-brothers...which explains why our birthdays are almost two months apart. It's either that or we're twins and our mom was in labor a reeeeeaaaaally long time!

This makes Kyle my "step-cousin" if that's a real word. Curtis (Garden Spyder) and I are high school alums. He's a bit younger than me, but I'm much better looking so it all evens out I suppose! (Am I allowed to razz an "Elder User" in my first post?)

I actually met Duane and Clint back around the end of May / first of June when they came up to Jewell to help our folks dig out from the tornado (literally). Curtis and Kyle were there to lend a hand that weekend as well. Duane and Clint made the trip up there at least one more time with Chad since then. I tell you what, if these guys are any indication of what the rest of you are like, I'll consider myself lucky to be a part of your chapter.

I currently reside in sunny Ellsworth, KS. I work in Salina, which is an 80-mile round trip. So I'm loving the $4 gas.

This is enough for my maiden post. I look forward to talkin' at ya more later.

Well.... all I can say is its a good thing you are better looking than me, cause jabbing an elder user around here can get you kicked off the board, unless you are like everyone else and put one sock on at a time, and breath at once least daily.Then and only then can you razz someone on this board if it is either a weekday, weekend, or holiday.

Or a day that ends in Y

Better looking? I'm not even going there...

Love the avitar. Glad you finally made it aboard. Guess you could tell those that don't know you what ya drive, what you used to drive (or didn't get custody of) and what you have parked in the weeds You better do it today, because I will only have 2 laptops in CO, Jack will have 2, (maybe 3)and Curtis 1, so there might be a shortage

Hey Troy, welcome to this weird bunch of folks. We have lots of fun here and occasionally help each other out, especially if food is involved.

Well the Ford Fleet is a little sparse at my house right now. As Flip alluded to, I’m in the process of obtaining an ex-wife. But back before that all went south, we traded my ’00 F150 4x4 in on an ’02 Explorer because the wife thought she needed the third row seat to haul our two boys (now 6 and 3 years old) and their friends around. I took over the family Taurus to save some money on gas for that wonderful work commute I mentioned earlier. My 6-year old still speaks longingly of “The Red Truck” (the F150). He doesn’t think I got a very good deal on that trade! Can’t say I’d argue with him.

So now the estranged wife has custody of the Explorer. I could mention that it was totaled this spring when she got caught in a major hail storm while out sneaking around with her (also married) boyfriend one night. But that would be mean. She opted to keep it (the Explorer), but it looks like a truckload of ball bearings got dumped on it.

I do have the ’62 F100 that Chad drove for a couple years “back in the day”. And I’m going to take over Kyle’s ’82 Bronco project once the dust settles from my divorce. (I promise I’ll get you paid someday Kyle!)

Tomorrow I’m loading my boys and all our camping gear in the Taurus to make our way westward. We’re going to ride along with Uncle Chad on the Colorado tour for a couple days. We’ll see if he ever volunteers for that again!<O</O
