Now who am I going to fucking vote for for President?
The world in general and SOCNET in particular are less for his loss. He was one of the few people with whom I agreed with on a majority of things. I had the privilege of meeting Andy a couple times over the the past 10 years or so. When I first met him, his username was still SouthoftheBorder. I will never forget the last time I saw him in person, when he was busy telling one of West Virginia's Finest "I've got a gun too, motherfucker." As KidA noted, I should have suspected something was amiss when Andy friended me on ******** a few months back. I wish I believed we would meet again in Valhalla, but I don't believe that any more than he did. Regardless, Semper Fi, Marine. RIP.

I saw 0699's avatar in another thread and didn't want to believe it was true. SOTB was without a doubt one of the most well versed and insightful people I have ever had the privlige to read. His grasp on a wide range of subjects, and desire to learn about ones he wasn't fully up to speed on spoke volumes. Over the almost seven years I've been here, I learned several things by reading his posts. I also laughed my ass off.
RIP, Andy. Thank you for your service, and your contributions to SOCNET. My sincerest condolences to your family and friends who read this. A loss like this will take time to heal...but what a legacy he left. Never met him in real life, but yeah, I can see that happening. What a great way to remember a true man's man.
