I have been talking about this place to my friends IRL for a while now. And, one of my dearest, the one who was kind enough to take the bus here to drive up to Joplin with us, so I wouldn’t have to drive back alone, has registered on here. So, everyone give your usual warm welcome to:

The party will start shortly. This will be a non-alcoholic one, so there are plenty of sodas and iced tea over there, and lots of munchies. Lots of comfy chairs to hang out and chat in too.
ok, so a bear, a unicorn, and an Ender walked into a bar…
Oh, a non-alcoholic one. Business was kinda slow, but there was lots of Coke.
Anywho, welcome Maidenunicorn41
hello everyone. so glad you could make it. the band will start in a few minutes. you can give them your requests. eat and drink and have a good time. Hope you all enjoy yourselves.
Oops! Shame on me. I forgot to mention the band getting ready to start. It will play mostly 80’s dance stuff, but will take requests too. The dance floor is right over there in the corner, shoes optional. <We won’t be wearing them to dance!>
Welcome aboard, Maidenunicorn.
thanks for throwing me this party. It was very kind of you PB. The band sounds great and I cant wait to get on the dance floor. Party time tonight.
I just LOVE unicorns~
Welcome, maidenunicorn41! Any friend of purplebear’s is welcome to be a friend of mine. Happy to meet you!
I brought my portable hot tub and a couple of pitchers of iced tea. That should liven up the party. I feel like dancing!

Any friend of purplebear’s gets a hug from me! {{{{{maidenunicorn41}}}}} Welcome!
Nice ta meetcha, maidenunicorn41. As a friend of purplebears, I’ll even smile at ya. 
(purplebear, you’ve ruined me.)
'80s music? Oh yeah!
::waves::
Scottie and Geobabe, I knew I could count on you sweet ladies to welcome her. Thanks for the hot tub and iced tea, Scottie.
And, my dear MysterEcks! Why, whatever do you mean? 
gives a friendly smoooch on your cheek
Hi, tigg!!! Glad you came by.
Welcome Maidenunicorn41, welcome to the StraightDope message board. Life will never be the same for you. You may find yourself discussing things like felching and squicking. You may dream of the posters here. And even dream of posting.
No life will never be the same and you may find yourself admitting to friends and family members that you are a Doper and proud of it.
There is no escape.
I have to second the sentiment that any friend of purplebear’s is a friend of mine! Welcome!
{{{{{{{{{{maidenunicorn41}}}}}}}}}}
Welcome aboard!
::tips hat::
Welcome!! After all that dancing, I am sure you ladies could use a nice foot massage, right?
Oooh!! <rushes right over to Daniel, almost knocking Ayesha and evilbeth aside in her haste> Oops! Sorry, kind ladies! Hi!!! Hi, Zen!
I’m here, for my massage. Shall I wash them first for you?

Welcome to the SDMB, may your stay be long and rewarding.
Actually, I’ve never had the priviledge of being properly introduced to purplebear either, although I’ve read many of her posts and have a lot of respect for her, so allow me… Hi, I’m VaHermit, and it’s a pleasure to meet you both.
Daniel, my love!
First we dance, THEN you massage.
You have to have priorities, ya’ know?
Scotti:)
Welcome. I’m sure you’ll have fun here, as you can probably already see from this thread.
::leans back and sips her (non-spiked) coke::
VaHermit, how could I have missed properly greeting you?! :eek: Shame on me. I must rectify that immediately. Thank you so much for your kind words. I’m glad you’ve enjoyed my posts. As I’ve enojyed yours as well.
So, pleased to meetcha, VaHermit.
