Default Calling Blue Ox

I haven't seen Ox on here for what seems like a while, as much as he is a king ball breaker I'm kinda worried about the PITA. Is he on vacation maybe, or just taking a break maybe? Ox are you out there, I miss ya!!

Might be otherwise occupied - it could be time for the Annual sanding, scraping and repainting of the Ox?

I just checked his profile, he hasn't been on since the 25th. Maybe he went on vacation or something. Geez I can't believe I'm actually concerned about the big lug, hope he's okay!

YEP! If anyone knows his deal be it vacay or whatever please post, I miss arguing with him. lol
Seriously though, it's all about the people that make up our daily routines and even though this is just a forum for which most of us will never meet and in some cases there is a lot of dislike and other cases some bonds have formed we mostly are still just regular guys who like cars and ended up here. Okay now don't you guys go crying on me now, there's no crying on forums!! LOL

Lol, Dan the antagonist of C7 section needs his main protagonist to rail against. Otherwise, the scales are out of balance. Or MAYBE Dan can't leap to the next time period until he buries the axe with Ox. Or maybe I have been watching too much Quantum Leap. I think Ox and Sam are in deep, intellectual discussion about the C7's most prominent features.....and I am VERY sure it is remaining a civil exchange of ideas.

1985 is that how you think of me? Now I'm gonna cry. ha
Really though, I wish no harm on anyone and am sincerely wondering about him. Don't worry, when he comes back I'll let him have it for not telling us he was taking a break.

Haha, nah, no one ever bothers me around this forum. Some of it is has me laughing. Particularly when you and Snorman get into it. One day I almost spit my coke out when you made a comment and Snorman was all over you with, "I knew it wouldn't take long for you to show your *** in another thread".

I have enjoyed the C7 reveal and all the good, and I have enjoyed the forum teething phase before people get their cars. It won't last, then the C4 will go back to being the most hated car ever. I mean we pride ourselves on that over in C4 section, but we don't mind when the hatorade stops flowing for a bit to pour on a new generation Corvette that comes out.

Well, over in C4 we're too concerned with, "What the he$$ is wrong with my car?" And "My left turn signal doesn't work, do you think it's the optispark?" to be worried about anyone hating our cars.

Well, BlueOx averages 15 posts a day, so he is about 90 posts behind. I hope he is on vacation because he has a lot of work ahead of him when he returns to catch up.

Wow, beating up on the guy when he can't defend himself. You all should be ashamed of yourselves.

So what's his hourly production rate and we can forecast his return, assuming no constraints.
