Sorry, didn’t meant to leave you out, **Michael**. I’m sure you’d be a much better man if you had a penis, too. Heck, I’m sure we’d all be better men for it.

See, I just knew it somehow. 😉

Eh, I’ve just knocked heads with a well-known problem child in the Great Debates…chick thread…I need some help, and FAST.

So, is it my deoderant? It’s the hair, isn’t it…you’re all jealous that I still have a full head of hair at…er…50s…or so. _sob_ I try so _hard_ to be liked…oh wait, no I don’t. Is this thread only for those you admire? Hate mail is okay with me; I just need the recognition, you see…

oh hell…

She/he mentioned my name! There’s no telling _where_ things will go from here. Who knows what can happen…hey, someone’s shooting these cans! He hates these cans!

Oh, **Chefguy**! I’ve thought about you all day! Ashcroft is in my state, and I need the disinfectants, voodoo, and mellifluous defamations that only you can provide.

**Chefguy** rules.

Well I **know** I haven’t included all of y’all in this post, but I hope that in the years left to me, I will be able to communicate with you at some level.

For now, let me just say that I am very thankful that y’all are here and that I love y’all a lot.

You too, **Michael Ellis**! 😃

Sorry–I’m not familiar enough with everyone on the board and **Blonde** could be either gender.

“Blonde” = female with golden follicles  
“Blond” = male with golden follicles

I believe she’s married and of the female persuasion, but I appreciate that she’s my buddy for wartime (Great Debates) needs. I look forward to eating a donut with her at some point!

You know, you’re headed to dinner with friends, and you cross your fingers that he’ll be a part of it, because any gathering is twice as funny with his comments and asides.

I never got around to replying to this (for no particular reason), but I wanted to thank **CrankyAsAnOldMan**. That’s one of the nicest things anybody has said about me on the web. 😉 And I’d say it’s very much the type of guy I try to be.

Also in the “too little too late” department, I read **Q.E.D.**'s profile, and he appears to be a guy like he says.

Like a great many people, I do my best not to keep in touch with your penis.

Good thing, **Marley** , you’d probably just give him a hard time.
