Chances are good I will end up deleting this post later. Suffice it to say what you are about to read is out of character for me to say the least.
For the past two years I have talked to BW in one way or another virtually every day...until about five weeks ago.
When BW disappeared he did it completely. I have emailed every address I have for both him and freckles. All unanswered. I have tried to call him...disconnected. His sites are down. IM, he hasn't been online in that time.
I don't know why BW disappeared. I don't care. The rational part of me knows that he disappeared on purpose...cuz that's part of the mystery that is Blackwave. The irrational part of me has worried about his safety every day since Decemeber 16th.
The last trace of BW was on December 21st. It isn't hard to find so I won't say where.
I will say that I miss my friend. I hope to see or hear from him again soon.
I hope he's ok and sucking down a Bawls on a tropical island wearing black t-shirts while Freckles and assorted other chicks dressed as nuns dye his hair for him.
I would love for him to post and laugh at me for actually being silly enough to sit here and compose this post with some of my true feelings in it.
I would love for him to show up at the next IVU and sit around with all the IVU guys and laugh at this post.
I would love an email telling me to keep it on the DL, but that he's ok.
I stopped hoping for that though. I stopped hoping for that one week after I knew his vacation ended and he still hadn't resurfaced.
There's no elegant way to end a rambling post like this one...so I'll end it by restating something I have already said, but that really sums up my feelings more than anything else....

I miss my friend.
Reminds me of a quote from Shawshank Redemption:
"Sometimes I have to remind myself that some birds aren't meant to be caged, their colors are just too bright. And when they fly away, the part of you that knows it was a sin to lock them up does rejoice. But still, the place you live is that much more drab and empty that they're gone.
I guess I just miss my friend."
Just from reading his posts he seemed like a good guy, so hopefully all is for the best with him.
The mighty man will become a tinder and his works a spark; both will burn together with nothing to quench the flames.
Post his Real name & Last known Address
And let's see what we can find...
Stupid people should have to wear signs that just say, "I'm Stupid." That way you wouldn't rely on them, would you? You wouldn't ask them anything. It would be like, "Excuse me...oops...never mind, I didn't see your sign.
Reminds me of a quote from Shawshank Redemption...
you got it wrong.. this is what it shoudl have said :
"Sometimes I have to remind myself that some BlackWaves aren't meant to be caged, their hair-colors are just too bright. And when they fly/drive/walk/run away saying 'I'll be right back', the part of you that knows it was a sin to lock them up and force them to drink enough Hacker-Juice to kill a normal man whilst making everyone else stick thier head into a huttub filled with ice and water to get thiers, does rejoice. But still, the place you live is that much more drab and empty that they're gone..... I guess I just miss my friend...... and I need a beer.
If I had a nickle for every time someone offered me ten cents to keep my two cents to myself... I would be a rich man.
What irony. He is being sought out more now than he ever could have dreamed. If he wants us to leave him be, we will, we're just concerned that all is well.
