Gee whiz, but it would be swell if Cecil welcomed all of the new charter members.

I know that I would appreciate it. Seeing as this is a new era for his message board, it seems appropriate that he would have some words of welcome for it and us.

holds a candle vigil

What, giving him your money wasn’t good enough? You have to try to draw him out by kissing his butt? Geez…

Oh, ad just in case: Hi Cecil. :slight_smile:

::shoves Airman aside::

Hey ! It’s my turn to be spoken to by the Great and Powerful Cecil.

Naw, that’d diminish the effect of welcoming the first subscribing infant progeny of Charter Members.

Hey, Aaron’s already registered. I might have to make him a Charter Member too, because by time he’s old enough to post it’s gonna cost a fortune. I figure that 11 years of maintenance fees will be worth it for half-price fees then.

Pshaw! Who says that Cecil is even a Charter Member? Let’s see whether he’ll pony up the dough. :stuck_out_tongue:

Ed “ed” Zotti has noted here that the SDMB has already gotten over a thousand subscriptions. That’s quite a big meet-n-greet.

Hey I’d be quite a happy if a sticky showed up from the All Knowing One addressed to all… you know… it’d be nice… that’s all…

Am I the only one who got Cecil’s e-mail?

Yes?

Cecil?

If anyone can conjure up the great ‘n’ powerful, it’s you, Muad’Dib.

<screechylittegirlvoice>He eees the cuisinart hatrack!</screechylittlegirlvoice>

I suppose this is as good a thread as any to proclaim my Charter status. :slight_smile:

[self-deprecating voice] I’d settle for being noticed by an Administrator or Moderator. I’m much too unimportant for Cecil to acknowledge. Or Ed.[/s-d voice]

There! That should set me off from the more frequent posters. Do I get noticed now, huh? Do I? Do I?

Can I just say taht this is the first time I’ve ever posted in a “I need to be noticed by the Master” thread?
:smiley:

No, I’m afraid we don’t have time for that.

OK, you all know it isn’t going to happen. Chances are Cecil has stripped to his skivvies and he’s rolling around in all the moolah we’ve been sending to him.

How’s that for a shattered illusion?
:smiley:

He’s still a Perfect Master but if he emails me I’ll pay the $4.95 if he can’t afford it.

Chants Cecil! Cecil! Cecil! Cecil!..

Closest I ever got to a Brush-With-Cecil was a polite cease and desist email from Ed Zotti concerning the Unofficial SDMB Picture Pages.

So close and yet so far…

Thanks for sharing that with us.
The world is a very ugly place…
