Well what a strange coninkeydink that I was just about to ask you for a pit welcome when I saw your reply over in the goldie thread. Fact is stranger than fiction ain’t it?
I realize of course you are a step above the other moderators on here and don’t require chocolate or me slathering on about how nice it would be to have a welcome from you or how important you are. Nope, I know that you are above such trivialities. And I don’t feel the need to remind you that we were friends at one time and on the same level instead of like now where I am just a nothing and you are king of the pit( no offense alpha.)
Of course let’s be realistic. Mrs. aha is the one who would be really disappointed if you decided not to welcome us to the pit. Not to say that I wouldn’t enjoy it just as much as her but when I told her you might just open us up a personal welcome to the pit thread, tears came to her eyes. And one of them is glass, so you know that she is really moved about the possiblity.
Ok, I gotta go but since this is the pit I feel obligated to say, “thanks in advance your bastardness for the welcoming thread we may recieve.” And if you ever down my way please stop in for a glass of iced tea.
I’ll tell the little woman to keep her eye out for you.
aha, it is my pleasure to welcome you to the Straight Dope Message Boards. We’re always glad to have former internationally-famous rock stars, and we hope you enjoy your time spent here.
Say hi to the missus for me. (But, please; tell her to keep that glass eye in for me. Coldfire’s into that sort of thing, not me.)
What a horrible shock aha is sucking up to the moderators again. Don’t you know everytime you add another mod to your signature you tick off Cecil even more, hooha.
To see a man so willingly take a step back and give up his dignity just to bring a little pleasure to his wife truly touched me. I was nearly in tears by the time I finished reading your post. You are surely a man among men and I can only hope and pray that Mrs. aha realizes how blessed she is to have such an unselfish, adoring husband.
As of this moment, with God as my witness, I shall devote my life to becoming a moderator on this board so that I too can someday welcome you to this board. Until then, all I can offer is my undying respect …carry on, my friend.
iampunha …Hey, the man told me in writing that when he makes the big come-back tour, I could be the roadie carrying his guitar. Dispite the odds, I try to cover all the bases. It’s known as “creative career enhancement”, AKE “Sucking up”. I feel dirty and shamed for it …but a man’s gotta do what a man’s gotta do.
