I think this is the appropriate time to declare that I have a crush on Coldfire.
I have to leave this thread because I am now blushing like a schoolgirl.

Why, thank you ma’am 😉
OK, enough of that. Back to work, you slackers! There’s ignorance to be fought.
Wait… MPSIMS, eh? Scrap that command.
And I don’t _seem_ to be a moderator. I’m a “registered”, for some reason 😃

Congratulations Coldie! The votes for the new moderator position were narrowed down to you and Jack Dean Tyler. Word has it that you were ahead by a foreskin.

Naw, now you have _more_ to give him a hard time about.
Welcome, Coldie. I’m looking forward to divvying up the MPSIMS women with ya. We did tell you about the sex benefits, didn’t we? I know ya don’t get paid for this, but you do get this bit of compensation. Or at least that’s what I was told. Go ahead, you pick first.

Ha! I knew that drinking with you would come in handy one day.
Congratulations, lad. Couldn’t happen to a nicer guy!
Now that I’ve thoroughly sucked up you, I’m outta here. 😃

Thank you, thank you all.
UncleBeer: free sex, eh? I’m all for that. But I still get the coffee mug, right?
And now, to confuse you all, I shall edit my post. The quicker among you will have seen the Satanic messages and links to nekkid wimmins. Alas, they’re gone now 😃
