Jonesy logged in on January 25, so he is OK.

I’m not dead yet.

Yes, I thought you were just taking a couple of months off. Now if we can find @Michael A, things will be looking up. Unfortunately, he hasn't been here in almost two years.

I'm here, @handymike & I appreciate you thinking of me. Traveling, as @barnabus and @Al 916 said. I only got my phone with me and if typing on it isn't painful enough in itself, I am rarely within a wi-fi range as is so can't be active but I check the forum every few days.

And I'm really glad to hear you're back on your feet, @sweetfights.

Got separated from a 28-year marriage in September. I have had my hands full but am on my feet in new digs. Glad to be back recently!!! Thank you for thinking of me.

That´s terrible! Love and only love can break your heart. Good to hear you´re doing better!

Thank you my brother. I hope you are doing well.

My total sympathies Sweets.
Laying to rest a marriage is the hardest task a man can do. Especially a Father as that can never be laid to rest.
Experience says burying the dead part can only be celebrated by embracing the new loves enjoyed with others, especially your children’s.
It WILL get better as the heart heals the mind through your children’s love for Dad.
As the firefighter and father you are you extinguish the flames, sift through the ashes for cause....then repair and rebuild in hope.
Hope and heart always prevails.

Thanks for sharing Sweets, you are not alone.

What a thoughful post, right on!

Has anybody had any communications with Ed, @Desert dog???
Last heard from about a year and a half ago.

Now if we can find @Michael A, things will be looking up. Unfortunately, he hasn't been here in almost two years.

I corresponded with Michael (via the forum messages) intermittently for several months in early 2021 and we talked about a range of things--aside from his peerless thrifting, he was also keen on photography--but then one day he went radio silent. I hope he's okay, but I worry he's not.

 

[Will Zach]

There was a dude, can't find his nick, Dr Macabre (?). French dude I think. Awesome style and photography. Edit: @DrMacabre. Was he banned?

 

[Peacoat]

What a thoughful post, right on!

From that post you would never know he is a Marine. Surprises never cease.

 

[AeroFan_07]

So has anyone seen:

Jin431 - around?​

My apologies if this has already been discussed. He was so into everything until, well, sometime in 2022 he just dropped off a cliff (hopefully not for real!)

I have no indication he was banned. His account is active.

He, like so many others, was with us and active, until one day he just no longer signs in, and is never heard from again.

This is pretty much how the offline world works, too. Every day or every week, without realizing it until some time later, we do something for the last time, we go someplace for the last time, and we talk to someone for the last time. It sucks but it's life.

When i was a kid one of my favorite things to do was to look at the Sears xmas catalog. Sometimes I think of TFL like that. The bank account however needs a break once in a while..

I heard something along the lines of him wanting to stop buying so many leather jackets. Tfl being a bad influence or something like that. I could be wrong, but thats what I was told by someone who was NOT Jin himself.

He told me his interest shifted to custom MTO denim.

I get a like on Instagram from him every now and then, even if he doesn't actively post himself.
I think the interests have simply shifted.

At least I think it's Jin lol
