Dude had a Masters Degree in psychology?

I think the interesting thing is, he never had children.

Prolly why he slapped us around and into shape.

There's no way in hell he actually had a masters.

I say that because if he did have one, he'd have crowed about it every time he denigrated somebody who didn't have a degree. Which for him was about every third post.

He did like to call me "uneducated" quite a bit.

his obit said he did and these posts seem to indicate some knowledge of what it takes...i'd bet he did

since he never did anything with it, very skip to not boast about it

100+ reply thread. Somewhere Skip is a smiling.

RIP Skip

It was a good time debating you.

Mosbonian · 07-20-2023, 10:45 AM

RIP Skip...he actually helped me with a satellite dish issue once. Appreciated his help.

Other times we would bicker about stupid little crap. I think he was actually the first person to Neg rep me eons ago and his comment with it was hilarious. But all in all we got along.

Seeing this reminds me I was in my early 40's when this place started. Now I am an old "get off my lawn" guy.

God bless the old Star Board for being so narrow minded that Kyle had to start this place.

RIP to the grouchy one. Taking his “get off my lawn” attitude the wrong direction……

He was funny when you started to get his schtick. Losing too many, it seems like lately.

In lieu of flowers, you can purchase a WebTV in memoriam.

In honor of Skip, I checked how many 100+ reply threads I’ve created….. 369. Somewhere Skip is smiling.

I'll go ahead and move this over to the HOC, but while I do that...

I was randomly looking at the list of top members by post count today, and I noticed that Skip is still on the first page (#30) even though he hasn't posted for a decade. The dude was quite prolific for his time (especially given the WebTV thing).
