Sluggo

The following was posted on the Mountain News-WA today concerning Sluggo. A woman named Rita says that he is okay, but that his wife passed away a few months ago.

I don't know who Rita is, or what truth she has about Sluggo, but she is referencing posters here. Perhaps some individuals are posting here and at the DZ about Sluggo?

Anyway:

The rumors spread by EU and R99 are untrue, Sluggo is alive and ok. Just talked to him. He is pissed about Nicholson's latest rumor mongering post at Slopzone. In fact Sluggo asks that people leave him alone. He wants nothing to do with Cooper trash. For those who must know, it was his wife that passed away in April. Not Sluggo himself. Now please mind your own damned business and leave Sluggo alone! Good bye morons.

BRUCE SMITH - Did you actually make the above post or did someone here hack your account?

Bruce, I have checked your site and DropZone and do not see any posts related to Sluggo since my original posts above at 7:20 PM EDT (#7104 above) and at 11:32 PM EDT (#7107 above) yesterday.  You did respond to these posts here and by a PM to me.  I can probably name the individual who hacked your account based on his writing style.  I will file a complaint with Shutter on this.

For the record, I haven't seen any posts by EU on this and I have not posted a single thing to DropZone about Sluggo.  In fact, I haven't posted anything on DropZone for quite a while since it is now basically a pornographic site.

Nobody has hacked this site I can assure you of this..the comment is on Bruce's site made by a bogus username I've seen on that site before..since only goodwill was asked about Sluggo and the lack of EU posting anything related to the issue tells me it's just more shit stirring wanting to cause trouble..based on R99's comment I'll assume Derek is back on there with the old porno pics..

Bruce, I would remove and monitor the thread till the tantrum fades..

Has anyone been in touch with Sluggo within the past few weeks?  Or to be more to the point, is he still alive?

Yes he is alive! 

Have you tried calling him to ask him if he is alive?   :-\

Why would he not be alive? What info do you have that suggests he might be dead?

Didn't I post a few months ago saying I had talked to Sluggo .... maybe it was further back ... when Sluggo was offering his site for sale and people were in touch with Sluggo arranging/negotiating for his files and papers/books?  Sluggo has quit everything associated with the Cooper case. Do you remember that? 

I will call him tomorrow and if he answers that means he is alive!  :congrats:

Derek is back on DropZone posting porno.  But I don't think he started this.  I believe a Cooper poster who has a documented reputation for shooting from the bushes is probably the culprit.

Just exactly where on Bruce's site is the original post on this matter?  I couldn't find it.

Since I provided you with Sluggo's contact information, and that may have been a mistake, I do remember the matter.  There are valid reasons for my original post asking about Sluggo.

Believe what you like.   

I already talked to Sluggo tonight and he is alive and busy.

I hope you are happy at the result, Mr. Nicholson!     ...   unless you and others at OZ are holding out on Toto and Dorothy again!? Will it be released at Cooper Con?

Regarding the MN, Derek and others have posted there in the pat couple of days. Most of the stuff was offensive and has been removed. The post from "Rita" about Sluggo was not as I didn't see anything particularly offensive.

If anyone talks to Sluggo, please give him my regards.

What is your primary concern? Sluggo's health and well-being, your invasion of his privacy, or 'being right' ! ?

"There are valid reasons for my original post asking about Sluggo."               -           

Has Shutter or anyone else had any contact with Sluggo after you raised this issue (in Sluggos behalf ?) about his health and whether was alive or dead! ?

Have you had any contact with Sluggo? Is he ok, alive, sick, .................. ? 

*When I talked to him after R99's post he said he was ok, was busy with personal matters, was giving Cooper files and books away, and that he had no further interest in Cooper matters. He seemed surprised about R99's post but did not elaborate but finally said 'no, Im ok, lets talk later'. He may be pissed about R99's intrusion into his personal affairs, but that would be a perfectly ordinary reaction for most people. Wayne did say " no, Im ok, lets talk later " and I let it go at that. 

Anything else is pure speculation on my part and Im not going to indulge in that. Especially regarding Sluggo!    In case you dont know: Sluggo has had a solid long term interest in paleontology in addition to his long career in the nuclear industry. He is also a pilot. He followed Kaye's work closely as it developed. All of that above and beyond his interest in the Cooper case. His greatest devotion is to his family. At the time he ran the best most comprehensive Cooper website on the web and gave R99 the space and opportunity to present his West Path theory. He enjoyed a solid trusted relationship with Ckret. Sluggo has had solid relationships with a number of diverse people who respect him. .....

Let's look at some time lines here.  My first post on Sluggo (#7104) was at 7:20 PM EDT, July 5th, with a second one (#7107) at 11:32 PM EDT, July 5th.  Assuming that the times on Bruce's site are PDT (Pacific Daylight Time), Rita's post there was at 12:14 PM PDT (or 3:14 PM EDT), July 6th. 

Rita posted that she had just talked to Sluggo and that he claimed that, "The rumors spread by EU and R99 are untrue, . . ."  So in less than 20 hours, "Sluggo" (remember he is not interested in the Cooper matter!) checked out things on Shutter's forum and on DropZone and saw some posts that were never made on those sites or anywhere else.

For the record, I haven't seen a post anywhere by EU on this matter.  And I haven't posted on DropZone for several months.

Georger, give my regards to "Johnnie Greene", I'm sure you know who he is, and to "Rita" as well.  The three of you have a very distinctive writing style, and I'll bet that you took the same creative writing class together.  Right?

The rest of your post above contains so many untruths that it would be a waste of time to reply to them.

So, the family and I have spent the last couple of days in Pigeon Forge, TN. One of the attractions that we visited today was the Alcatraz East Crime Museum. It's a pretty neat visit that chronicles a large amount of historical crimes. Among the things there is the actual Ford Bronco that OJ Simpson was riding in during the famous and perhaps most slowest police chase ever. The Volkswagen beetle belonging to Ted Bundy is also on display there as well. One of the more interesting things that I saw, was a piece of flooring from the house where Jesse James was shot and killed. The flooring had blood stains from James' blood. Our friend, Mr. Cooper was also represented:

Dolly couldn't afford a graphic artist who could draw a 727? And not a DC-7, I believe. NWO, not Pan Am, too.

Just saying.

Hope you stayed safe in the Forge when you were there, Parrot. Covid things are getting a little dicey down your way, I hear.

Looks like the DZ has some chaos going on...I see Robert posted about not contributing to the forum followed by more comments...he doesn't understand he is being shouted down vs spamming..guests, or "the public" can't use the ignore function so it appears Derek is running the show..kind of a Chaz/Chop deal...his way or the highway...
