Title: Curious Aardvark
Post by Rat Man on Nov 23^rd, 2025 at 12:13pm

It's my nature to remember dates. I couldn't tell you why. On this date three years ago our leader, dear friend, and slinging legend Alex Johnson aka Curious Aardvark passed.
We're doing our best to keep what you created going and maintain your standards, c_a. Rest in peace, sir.
Also November 4th marked 17 years since I joined slinging.org. and November 19th marked 36 years since I gave up tobacco forever.
So much for dates.

Something else I'll mention RM. At the Slinging World Cup, Pep has started presenting a special trophy to the slinger who scores the most dianas. It's called the Alex Johnson trophy.

Wow this is spooky! I have had the biggest urge to get back in touch and I've gotten back online on this day of all days... this is a spin out... maybe CA was giving me some subliminal reminders to get back engaged!
