This feels like the situation where a co-worker is suddenly disappeared, and a curt email is sent out: “Idle Thoughts’ last day with the company is today. If you have any work in progress, please see your manager. We wish Idle Thoughts all the best in their future endeavors.”
I hope all is OK with you. Take care, friend. 😉

Well, I criticized you a lot for one thing, but you are on my friends list here as well. It’s like that point when listening to the Led Zeppelin catalog, and you’ve heard all the best stuff but _you don’t know that yet_, and so you believe for a time that Zep is even better than they are.
Used to play Cookie Clicker with the cat on my lap, but I swear that game burned out my laptop :mad:

That’s sad to hear, **IT**. If you do wish to post again one day, like tomorrow even, then don’t refrain from doing so just because you’ve said that you wouldn’t in this thread. I don’t think posting at the Straight Dope is something you have to be all in or all out of.

I was really enjoying your Zeppelin and Pink Floyd threads, and looking forward to many more.
Best of luck.

My friends list just dropped by a third.
Don’t remain idle too long, Thoughts.
