Greg's Roast

andyzee · Mar 24, 2008, 3:38 PM

I think Greg has been done a great job with starting up and running this board. He has given us all a nice friendly forum where we could log in any time of day and exchange ideas on skiing, hiking, biking, and just about anything else(no politics please). I was trying to think of a good way to thank him for this. Of course, the first thing that comes to mind is money, but I wouldn't want to insult him

. So I thought and thought about it, trying to figure out a thank you that would fit. Ran the idea past a few other Zoners and we came up with the idea of a roast. So here it is, please feel free to contribute:

I first met Greg two seasons ago at Mount Snow. I parked my car in the lot and saw the car next to me had an Alpine Zone decal on the rear window. I went over to introduce myself to Greg and he responded with an enthusiastic; "Andyzee, how the bump are you" "nice to finally bump into you". We went inside where we met up with bvibert(boy just can't shut up) and eventually JimG, Roark and MichaelJ. This was the first day of the season for us and we discussed the conditions as we booted up. Greg basically stated that only a couple of trails were opened, but there were bumps to be found. I'm starting to think this boy must like bumps. We skied together some and where they could be found, Greg hit the bumps. Kind of funny, where there were no bumps, he still looked like he was skiing bumps.

Greg likes bumps so much, I hear he seeded bumps on his lawn, just to stay in practice.
Someone once told me that Greg doesn't post to threads, he just bumps them.
When driving down the road, if Greg sees a sign that says BUMP, he pulls over and puts his skis on.

Well guys, you get the idea, bump it up!

Of course, there's the fact that Greg really didn't have any friends.. So ahead he went and created a bunch of ski related message boards so he'd have people to talk to...

Andy--

Greg doesn't write posts. He bumps threads.

Greg doesn't dance. He bumps and grinds.

Whenever Greg flies, he gets bumped to first class.

**Greg** · Mar 24, 2008, 6:47 PM

He he he. Remember that with most roasts, the roastee gets a chance to address the roasters. Keep that in mind.

Secondly, I hope the roasts get better than what I've seen so far...

Come on, guys. Give it to me!

Finally, cash donations are fine. Please don't think you might insult me.

When Greg goes to an amusement park, he only rides the bumper cars.
