"I never got a dinner." - Don Rickles

"Sinatra got a dinner. Dean Martin got a dinner. Even Joey Bishop got a dinner. Freakin' MORTY GUNTY got a dinner...jeez. I never got a dinner."

I never got a dinner.
Me.
trof.
One of the most senior (in every sense of the word) members of DU.
One who has labored here, year in and year out, bringing truth and beauty and insightful commentary to this website.
Did I EVER get an "appreciation" thread?
No, never.

Filistines.
Or Philistines.
Whatever.

Ungrateful bastids.
OK, THAT'S IT!
I'm leavin'.
I'm outa here!
This is my swan song.

I'll ne'er darken your doors, EVER again.
I'm...DONE!

:rofl:

Go call someone who cares. :)

(My very, very, very first deliberate post tease! I have to admit that, because if I didn't do it right, it might be against the new DU TOS!)
