This is my 50,000th post...

Thank you, thank you!

Over these many years, I have sought to regale you all with my rapier wit and charm, copious rants and raves, my ample use of ellipses, as I did my best to demonstrate my deep love for this country of my birth, America, as well as for all of you, my brother and sister DUers.

Many of you know me well; my love of art and music, my deep yearning for all kinds of justice, my vigorous concern for the human condition, my penchant for levity with various bouts of "Ask, MrScorpio", my "Six Degrees of MrScorpio" posts, You Tube music videos and most recently, my new found interests in political cartoons.

We have stood together, even at times on different sides of an issue, (but always in honest and respectful deference) through both good times and bad. I wouldn't have it any other way.

(As a side note: I have used many occasions to heap scorn upon those who would harm our country, as well as the world… Through their rampant and epidemic willful ignorance, hatred, malfeasance and incompetence. And I'm talking to YOU, any Right Wingers who may be reading this. May they bury me upside down when I die, so all of you racist, bigoted, misogynist, brain dead motherfuckers can kiss my black ass… Ah! But, I digress.)

Now I, myself, have benefited from all of your own charm, intelligence, fervor, wit and generosity, as well as your hospitality at times, as you have seen fit to tolerate my presence for these many years, my friends. For that, you have my heartfelt appreciation and gratitude.

We have all marched, drank, laughed, drank and cried together. You are all truly my partners in crime.

But what I really want to know is, what do you really think of me? I know that the other 18 DUers who have blocked me don't really care about me these days.

But what about you?

Since the Mods have so generously activated the poll function, I thought that I'd use this occasion to ply you all for honest answers from the ten choices that I've posted below. Of course, you are free, hopefully and without reservation, to inform me of your opinion of myself. I assure you in this, that your answers will have no attribution attached to them by myself and, I pray, not by anyone else.

Please be aware that if you'd like to participate, again you have my appreciation and gratitude… If you'd not humor me this one time, that too is also all well and good.

So without further ado, here we go:
