Is the guy who talks about his cats all the time still around?

That was watermock. He is, unfortunately, no longer with us. Cat's name was Beezer (I think it was a play on the name of the prince of darkness - and by all accounts, Beezer sounded pretty evil).
Mock was a heavy drinker, and he tended to lose whatever filter he had when he had too much. There were some classic stories that went along with that - the kind of stories every good board has in its history.
Mock just suddenly stopped posting about ten years ago - weird, because he had over 100K posts, up until then. Obviously, that's usually not such a good sign. Several months later, we learned that he was one of a small handful of people around the southern United States who died after eating some peanut butter that had left the factory contaminated. It was a strange finish for a strange (but decent) guy. We sadly never learned what became of Beezer.
RIP watermock (and a host of other good people from both the Mane and ChiefsPlanet who are no longer with us - most who just fall off the radar without anyone knowing where they've gone).
