• Pat Flood (@rebarcock) passed away 9/21/25. Pat played a huge role in encouraging the devolopmemt of this site and donated the very first dollar to get it started. Check the thread at the top of the board for the obituary and please feel free to pay your respects there. I am going to get all the content from that thread over to his family so they can see how many people really cared for Pat outside of what they ever knew. Pat loved to tell stories and always wanted everyone else to tell stories. I think a great way we can honor Pat is to tell a story in his thread (also pinned at the top of the board).

It's me you're Black Man Martin From Jinja Uganda.

Okay but i would love to know much more about winter and Summer Buddy.

First off, I’ve just now realized how close to the Equator Jinja is. There is good and bad to all places on this earth but I’d rather live along the equator than the artic/antarctic circles. Much better possibility of sustaining life in the warmer clients.

Secondly, I worked with dudes in grad school and later who were from southern India and Malaysia/Singapore who‘d never experienced seasons prior to moving to the US for school/work. An amazing world we live in with a lot of cool differences culturally.
