24. Me too

He's a thoroughly decent man, and very good company too - a very sad loss.

16. Here and there yeah...

but if it was regular, the level of rudeness & humorness would go up appreciably (at least from my perspective). :)

Also miss NSMA, and agree with you RE dolo and hedges. They're, like, the cowbell of the lounge, and we need more.

Her clown fetish was simply out of hand.

She and Jingles are very happy.

25. I've been gone for most of the primary season--so I don't know WHO I miss

But the list certainly makes me want to ask a few questions. I'm too busy to post as much as I used to, but I figure I'll be around more once the place calms down again.

Does anybody want to give me a brief rundown of what I may have missed?

26. Sure.

Donald Rumsfeld is giving the president his daily briefing. He concludes by saying: "Yesterday, 3 Brazilian soldiers were killed."

"OH NO!" the President exclaims. "That's terrible!"

His staff sits stunned at this display of emotion, nervously watching as the President sits, head in hands.

Finally, the President looks up and asks, "How many is a brazillion?"

Sorry, couldn't resist.

I'm still kinda proud of the "Vegans are loons" trap I laid for flvegan. It was one of my finest moments on DU. :evilgrin:

I was never sure if she left or did a name change or what. She was around a lot when I first came here in 2004.

49. I miss CGA....

I know he ticked a LOT of people off, and got into a huge cyber-war with the admins. I never wholly understood the motivation behind all of that, but his posts were entertaining to read.

And what's more, he reached out to me at a time when he was able to offer some very valuable insight to some personal matters that I was dealing with. The information he gave me was really above and beyond what usually happens on a message board, and I'm forever grateful for that.
