Couldn’t resist, sorry! <giggles> So glad to see you’re no longer a newt, dpr. 
Notice how Daniel conveniently forgot to answer my question? Someone hand me a towel while he’s deciding, it’s a little chilly in here.
No comments about the temperature, please! 
whips out a towel and reluctantly allows pb to cover up
Tis a crime to cover such a piece of art though…
steps back to avoid further contact with the cloth-eating nonbytes on time delay in the towel
dpr!: glad to see you, too. Ohh, a tribal fertility idol, just what I need, now I just need 2 more to complete the set. You have great taste.
PB: But we wouldn’t want to get OIL on it and stain it, now would we? Hey, Slythe, you’re already up to her kness and I’m only down to her… well, go slower, dude!
sighs and looks down at his fingers in disgust
That should have read ‘nanobytes’
Well, folks, the party lasted all weekend, and it was a pretty good bash, if I do say so myself. Thanks to all my good freinds who showed up, and even to those who missed it (altho you can post a congrats if you like, the party’s
over). Fortunately, one of my Household is a Hazmart specialist, so I can get this place cleaned up.
I really think you are all a great bunch of folks, and I am glad to be one of you/us!
<Hey! You can’t end this party yet! You haven’t finished my rub, errrr…back rub, yeah that’s it! ;)>
Thanks, dpr for the towel. :o Why, thank you. Oh, my! I’ve never been called a piece of art before.
I suppose not, Daniel. Guess I’ll have to be content with this towel for now. Even though it’s starting to feel awfully strange all of a sudden…
Where’d everyone else get too? Does this mean we’re alone in here? Hmmmmmmm…
This party ain’t over by a long shot! 
It just morphed from Danielinthewolvesden’s 1000 post party to slythe’s 2000 post party. So bring in the kegs, order the anchovie and pineapple pizza, find the straws, and bring back that goat!
Slythe: you’re the boss. OK, boys, rollout 2 more 55 gallon drums of massage oil!!
PB: why do you think I wanted everyone to leave?
:o oh.
I’m here, where are you?
<I say as I’m leaving for a while, be back soonest, don’t start without me!>
Congrats Daniel! Wow, I can’t believe you’ve posted so much so well in such a short time!
… now which way was that massage room?
Daniel, I told you anything. Life’s an adventure, right?
slythe, congrats as well. May the blushing innocent beg a kiss? Or whatever.
I’ll swap rubs if any of you boys get tired of doing all the work…
Hmmmm. I think I’ll take the “whatever”
Your call!
Wevets, glad you could make it. 
Everyone (stands up on beer keg), as this was Wally’s last SDMB party, I am now declaring it his wake, also. Please get maudlin drunk, and yell “putz!” a lot.
If a moderator would like to, I would very much like it if they would add “and Wally’s wake” to the thread title. Thank you.
“should auld acquaintance be forgot…”
grabs the bottle of tequila
All right, who’s doing a tequila shot for Wally with me?
Light 'er up, Falcon.
To Wally.
(Jeeze, I burnt my nose!)
His last party words- and I, for one, am gonna take them to heart. Skoal!
Spontaneous wakes are breaking out all over; grief for Wally’s death and joy having known him at all. There’s another wake in the offing over at the Dopeville town bar, in Eve’s thread, not to mention all the OP’s that posters have popped up.
Wally was big enough, and great-hearted enough to deserve all of 'em.
Hoisting a glass in gratitude for having known you at all, friend.
::hoists a Moosehead for the one, the only, the inimitable Putzmeister::
Exceptional lives don’t come from nowhere, Wally, and they leave their marks and live on.
To Wally
To Wally, Putzmeister Extraordinaire
Lifts shot glass of Tequila to shaking lips…
PUTZ!
I will miss the ol’ putz. 
Cuervo Gold in hand, I toast Wally: To a great man, a wonderful cyberfriend, sigmaster extraordinare, and the patron saint of putzes. To Wally!
To the tune of “Cisco Kid”, sung as if drunk (not too hard that last one) must have a shot of good tequila in one hand “Wally 7 was a freind of mine” ok, somebody else finish this
