Edith.

My apologies I meant “Rainwalker”.

Are you sure you didn't mean Luke Skywalker?

RIP Firecat, we had a few rows in our time, in particular about some guestbook reviews that he left on GayRomeo, but I think he did care a lot about those that were good to him and was always a generous sponsor

PS. Didn't Firecat reveal not so long back that he was also Scooby on the GT board?
The thread is gone now, but he posted something along the lines of "if I was still the owner of this board I would ban you immediately"

He did. I think Michael also informed members that he sold the Board to Firecat 10 years or so ago.

Anyone know his age and cause of death?

“erudite”?????!!!!! Jesus wept. I recall lunching with him one day and mentioning the name of the Boys Bangkok boy whose company I had enjoyed the previous evening and hoped to enjoy again later in the week. Shortly afterwards I received an SMS from said lad informing me that firecat69 had told him I had AIDS (I don’t). He was a first-class [insult deleted] and was as I recalled banned by Surfcrest or his predecessor. He commuted when I knew him between (again as I recall) Seattle where his ailing father lived, and Thailand.

Jesus wept. That’s a classic. When a poster dies, everyone remembers the good but we are complex creatures.
Stevie in his latest reincarnation serves a valuable purpose tempering the overly effusive with hard realities.
I just loved the ‘Jesus wept’ line, even though I’m a militant atheist.

I’m a born-again virgin - every bloody morning.

This forum specialises in speaking ill of the dead. Neal's death led to an astonishing out- pouring of glee, none of which made much sense to me because I used to chat with him at Ambiance and found him an interesting companion.
I'm lucky. When I pop my clogs there will be no one on this site who knows I've departed....or gives a damn.

Aww that's not true ( about the not giving a damn part anyway) - look if you're feeling a bit left out about that we could maybe arrange to roast you BEFORE you go if that would help ? Ok, let me start for you....


See, that Oliver2 one's just passed away, well I dont know about the rest of you but I thought he was one absolute...........oh hang on, I've not a single bad thing I can think of - damn, I guess you're just going to have to try harder to piss us all off it seems Oliver ! :-)

I gotta disagree totally with ypu NIrish. Oliver has pissed me off plenty of times with his cuckoo land description of Palestinian terrorists. That's a compliment btw. Any member on this board who hasn't posted stuff you didn't like must have the personality of an Edam cheese.

"You have no enemies, you say?
Alas! my friend, the boast is poor;
He who has mingled in the fray
Of duty, that the brave endure,
Must have made foes! If you have none,
Small is the work that you have done.
You’ve hit no traitor on the hip,
You’ve dashed no cup from perjured lip,
You’ve never turned the wrong to right,
You’ve been a coward in the fight."
Charles Mackay
