Howdy
« on: October 09, 2013, 09:16:39 PM »
My name is vangremlin, and I'm an eagle-holic...but i'm not looking for a cure.  I can't get my fix from the old watering hole any more, so I thought I'd migrate to the Den and join in on the fun.  I recognize a lot of the old familiar faces here, and I think you all have the same affliction I do.  Anyways, thanks for having me, and I'm really looking forward to lots of Eagle talk with none of the drama.
