Hello everyone, Its been a long time since I have been here. I was he 1998 - 2001 I think I took my same name Lt. Merak but I guess I should change it to Merak since I no longer have the rank since I left. I got the link for the site from Charybdis and decided to rejoin. I am currently saving to get a new Battle Uniform because the Black one I got way back when no longer fits, I had a 52" waist back then and now I'm a 38"-40" this time I am getting the Brown and Tans.
I am a member of Blackstar Squadron and am enjoying getting all the little pieces to my costume.
EDIT: I changed my name to Merak/Longshot. Longshot is the name I go by on the Blackstar Squadron forum.

Great to have you back, Tom!!! Wow, that's some serious weight loss, but I'm sure you're feeling and looking great! You'd look even better in those tans!!! In case anyone wants to know, I owe a debt of gratitute to Tom since he was the one who sold me my Sidi motorcross boots to complete my Warrior outfit way back around 1999 or 2000! Welcome back, to what's left of us

Welcome back! Ignore the "Ensign" by your name, that's just based on the number of posts that you've had on this forum. You're still a lieutenant.
And congrats on the weight loss! That's incredible.

Merak, great to see you back on the board! We met briefly at DragonCon back in 2001. I'm rarely around the board these days, but stop in a few times each year to say hello and catch up on the news. Great job on the weight loss, too!

Hello everyone I am recuperating after getting Kidney stones removed and getting a blood infection. I spent a week in the hospital and now I am at home just starting to eat normal and regaining my strength. It is two weeks today that I have been out of work and going crazy! For those who do not know I do now have a complete Tan & Brown Warrior uniform with the correct Sidi boots.

Merak, hope you're feeling better and able to get back at it soon.
Colonel, great to see you around, too. I try to stop by two or three times a week these days to see if anyone's around and to leave an occasional note.
