I was wondering if anyone has heard from or seen starmac.
He apparently hasn't posted in almost two months. He is hopefully just taking advantage of the summer sun up there.

starmac is one interesting fellow. We met for lunch last year when SWMBO and I got into his part of the world. He is not the type to brag or boast, but the more he talks the more his depth of knowledge and skills shows. Hope to make that run again and find him still available to visit. Also hope all is well with him.

I'm bringing this back around because I'm kind of curious about him too. He was a frequent poster and then just stopped. I have to say I'm a little concerned. If anyone knows anything about him please speak up. His cohorts here miss him.

A reminder that if one wants to keep in touch with people here they need to change their profiles to accept email from members. Sometimes we just take a time out.

Agree 100%, SWMBO and I had dinner with Starmac and his Lovely Bride several times while we in Alaska in February 2016.

I like it that the guys are concerned about Starmac and keep this thread current. As I remember it, He drives lumber trucks in Alaska. That, in my view, is an intense job and cause enough to be a little worried that he hasn't checked in for awhile. Anyway, miss him and Looking forward to any updates as to how he is doing.

A few years back he posted a photo of him driving thru Texas during the high summer time.

That boy don't let grass grow under his feet.

I also hope he is just to busy to post here.

Starmac was good enough to send me a pm about driving in Alaska when I mentioned it was a dream of mine when I was much younger and offer to put me in touch/send me a list of several companies that would be hiring up there if I was really interested. Nothing beats someone actually in a location for job information. I hope all is well up that way with him

This activity on the Members list shows he last visited in April. If his email was there someone could use it. He can't read a PM without visiting.

I have is old email, but he never could remember his email password.. he lives near Fairbanks. I will attempt to contact.

His email is bouncing.. I haven't used it in a while, but if memory serves, I had to setup his email for him on his computer... he is a awesome stand up guy, but NOT a computer nerd.

Hoping someone has some news, I have a couple feelers out with his wife's family in my area but haven't heard back yet.

A family member of a friend drove to his house to check on Starmac. He said no one was there, but it looked lived in.

If they can go back, perhaps they can leave a note.

I joined here about the time he left here, IIRC, but I do remember him, or at least read some of his posts, if I am not mistaken...

The only reason I post here now is to ask a question...

Didn't anyone do some business with him where one would have an address at least, if not a"contact" phone number?

( Is it that, "He never bought or sold anything?", would be another way to mention the possibility of a reference for contact.)

Seems to me that if anyone had any dealings with a Buy/Sell, or Trade, or something like that, someone would have a way to do a little "tracking" to find a feller...

Just a mention for those who would like to get a hold of this feller.
:)

G'Luck! & I wish the best regardless...

Going to kick this back to page one again.
Someone in Fairbanks go by his trucking outfit. PM for info if you need it. But please, only if you are really in the area, I am still trying to not tread on his privacy too much.
Not having any luck contacting his wife's cousins here in my area.
I am quite concerned about Starmac actually.

Just a thought.

If anyone has his address please contact the local police and request a wellness check.

I have done that several times and found the local LEOs very friendly and helpful.

IIRC several years ago when Bullshop and Jr were still members Jr had moved to Texas, Starmac posted a photo taken from his cab showing a road sign directing us to the town Jr was staying at.

From that I think it is just a case of Starmac being constantly on the road and no time to stop and post here.

It least I hope that is the case.

Well dang man! You've had quite a few worried about you. I even reached out to BSJr, but he didn't have your number and neither did his dad.

Glad you're alright and hope AK has been treating you well.

LOL, Double Adobe has neighbors that can verify if I am still kicking or not, IF they want to, may have to bribe them. lol
Fair warning, if everything works out like it is suppose to and the lords willing, come breakup next year I will be away from any communication to speak of for 7 months.
It appears like I am finally going to get to go remote, as in way off grid for awhile.

Anyone got one of those ankle bracelets that the courts put on absconders?? Maybe some one has a brother-in-law that might have spare one or even a sister-in-law. But then who will bell the cat so to speak?
