How did you find Goldgrubbin.com Just curious to see how you found the site? Web Search Referred from a Friend Referred from another Forum EBAY
Thats been too long ago, LOL. A lot of us joined on 1-25-06, don't know how that happened, is that when you got it going?
I'll just put searched the web.
I don't know. I found an ad somewhere about some fool havin' a drawing for free gold concentrates if folks signed up and posted at least one post on this new forum. I figured, "what the heck, I might get some free cons." Here I am, 2,086 posts later. My next one will make it 2,087. I have met some really great people here and got some really great gold concentrates, as well as having a really good time. It has been a pleasure.
Thanks Brian.
GPAA forum here too.

Some link, somewhere.
Not as important how I found the site as that once found I kept coming back.
Now you guys are stuck with me!

I found the web site by doing a web search and then emailed Brian about the club meetings. I did not join the site for a month a two and just checked things out. Glad I did join as I have met a great group of people

Yep, what Herschel said. It was on the GPAA fourm, but since they changed out the old, couldn't remember, one of them senior moments, LOL
Who did win that dirt, anyhow???
Mine was by web search also. I can say that, being a newbee then, this was the best place for me to end up. I have learned a lot form all of you crazies (I mean that in the nicest of ways) and, I feel that I have made some of the best friends a goldgrubber could find.

And I'd like to let everybody know, right up front!
IT WAS MY COTTON PICKIN' DIRT!!!
BAAAAAHHHHHHWWWWWWWWW
Now Herschel, you know that just ain't true. Brian never advertised that as a "Herschel's Special -50 and smaller" bag. I'll bet that when brian gets home, he'll be glad to fix you up another one....for a nominal fee.
Twig, you have mail!
PS: Make sure you select Bird's eye view!
Flourchild, are you keepin' a secret from us here on the forum??? Just one of those intuitive "gut feelin's of mine. Am I right or wrong?
Man Herschel I'll tell you what, I've always been straight forward with you guy's I've got no secrets to hide brother I'm, 37yrs old been prospecting since I was 15 spent some time up in Happycamp in the late 80's worked the sixes,elk , and the rogue rivers in Oregon for a couple yrs grew up in southern California moved to southern Ohio in 1991 to help my father who was a heart transplant patient God rest his soul am a christian and proud member of the River of life Assembly of God in Moscow Ohio I met sunnyslife on the Ohiooutdoorsman site about 6 or so months ago and she told me about you fellers I am not good with the computer had to have a friend post my combo pics for me and I now prospect here in southern Ohio every chance I get, flourgold is about all you find here so hence my forum name I'm not a real big fan of the way the GPAA does things and in the mid 80s was going to go on the alaskan trip found out that you had to work their equipment and all gold was weighed and sorted by someone in a locked building then was brought out and divied up this was just not the way we (my father and I) did things instead we heard of the new49ers and opted to go up there we met Dave mac he showed us the ropes let us prospect for 2 weeks free and keep all we found also took a few of us on a highbanking outing and when we were done he did the clean up the weighing and the spliting in front of us all no closed doors no secret room this was how things should be done I do hope Herschel that we can get a club together out here in the east and I look forward to meeting you all one day but no I have no secrets but may have a few qurks my grammer is poor and I have always been long winded so sorry bout that if you ever have any questions I would always be happy to talk with you or anyone else here you have all treated me with respect and I respect you all as well thanks again for everything guy's this is a great forum
BILL
Sure glad ya didn't say I was the dysfunctional part of the family Abearzz...LOL!! Just remember, you and Kev answer alot of the quizzes and questions the same way I do.....
Now that was a good write up Bill, I enjoyed that. Open and above board is the only way to go. Not to say that GPAA isn't honest, but there is that shadow of doubt that they themselves cast on their own integrity when they go behind locked doors to divy up the gold.
Speaking for myself, I don't want to do anything that might cast doubt on my integrity. My Great Grandpa, My Grandpa and my Daddy all taught me to do nothing that might cast doubt on the family name.
Now why did I think you were a woman Bill? I did look at your profile, but there was no indication. Well, Herschel was wrong again, and, I've been wrong before. When I quit makin' mistakes, come to my funeral. LOL
A woman now thats funny Herschel, when I read that I drop to the ground in laughter now that would have been a secret. Maybe it's the plants as interest and being a nursery owner that thew you off but didn't you see my picture in the photo forum with my combo/dredge thets me all man and all nutts the water was running 40 degrees at the time the pic was taken notice no leaves on the trees yet. Thanks for starting my day off with a smile though this is one for the books my wife is going to love it also bet Barb is laughing at it as well hope my buddies I prospect with here don't get wind of this I'll never hear the end of it
BILL (male prospector)
I guess you all know it's Brians fault I'm here, got a phone call as I remember, course I have slept since then. Paul glad my manhood hasn't been challenged as it is a well known fact that me and Joe Namath run around back in them days in queen size panty hose. Most guys did ! Lot easier to get a "wet" wet suit on in the mornings. Fact, if you didn't wear them, you didn't get it on until it dried out. Now we wear "skins" that let it slide right on. Baby powder and talcum pwder just made it a gooey mess, so panty hose around for everybody. Just remember to take off your spurs first, they put a "run" in them even fingernail polish won't stop.
SHUT UP SAM, I DON'T WANT TO HEAR ANYTHING FROM YOU OR BARB OR THAT SMARTALEC HILLBILLY CHICK REDNECK GIRL EITHER.
I'M ROLLIN' ON THE FLOOR LAUGHIN'
Seriously Bill, I guess it was the reference to Barb in your post. That plus the nursury. Just sorta struck me like there was these two women gabbin' and gossipin' over plants, and somehow got onto goldgrubbin'. I assumed, and we all know what an assumption will do to us, huh?
I probably saw the picture, but forgot. I guess my old timers kicked in.
Forgive me Bill, I apologize.
Now didn't didn't my apology sound real nice? Actually, I'm glad I made that mistake, 'cause now I know, and I got a real good belly laugh out of the responses.
OK Bill, I went and checked it out. Your dredge was that fine lookin' (the dredge bill, the dredge) home made gizmo made out of a shredder that looks like a rocket ship gettin' ready to blast off. Yep, I remember.
Nope, that AIN'T no woman in the pictures. I know what one of them looks like and that ain't it.
OH, by the way, this thread says: "How did you find Goldgrubbin.com" Well, to answer your question Brian, I always just type in "goldgrubbin.com", or just by clickin' the link. And, it is always just fine when I get there.
