Cushlamochree! He GOT it!

Cive that man a cigar…I seem to be short of cigars. D’you think your father would mind if I borrowed a few from him, m’boy? Handing these out to the other members of the Elves, Gnomes, Leprachauns, and Little Men’s Chowder and Marching Society will assure that I get elected president!

Hey aren’t there a couple of folks missing from there? **Seethruart** must have stayed in the corner studying his moon photos and **Sea Sorbust** was out watching for asteroids, I figure.

Seethruart was the founding member, if you look at the original meeting. **Sea Sorbust** ended up leaving as he developed interests beyond Flaming Asteroid Doom!

You’re shaking my faith, here… He was still a raving loonie, right? He just diversified a little?

No, actually IIRC he turned out to be an interesting poster once he got past his obsession with **Flaming Asteroid DOOM** (or, if he didn’t get past it, at least getting past posting obsessively about it).

I remember reading some non- **Flaming Asteroid DOOM** stuff and thinking “This is pretty good stuff! He has things to say, other than **Flaming Asteroid DOOM**!”

I liked **SeaSorbust**. Even the Flaming Asteroid Doom stuff. He was funny, always polite, and only slightly crazy. Unfortunately, he started playing with socks (apparently), and that was that.

Of course, we can’t completely discount the possibility of Flaming Asteroid DOOM!, either.

Then you’re goin’ straight to hell.

Sorry, but you are.

😉

And **SeaSorbust** got busted for sock-puppetry!!!

When/Where was this?!

Is there anyway that one uninitiated with the Chowder and Marching Society threads could get some links to them? The hamster’s being a bit too testy to do a search at the moment…

Yeah, **Jester** , the “Chowder and Marching Society” threads are great.

But, you really have to ask yourself why the miserable bastard know as **Fenris** has refused to update the “Secret Origins of the Mods” threads.

He never finished the “ **Cajun Man** Meets **Dr. Matrix** ” one.

My memory may be hazy…but didn’t Kay-Kay mention something about returning at a later date (between expounding on her hotter than lava sexual adventures)? :eek:  
Please tell me this is just a disturbing remant from a nightmare I had at the time that seemed disturbingly real.

I’m prety sure she tried to return a couple of times, and got banned again (don’t recall the names, though).

Her particular style is quite, shall we say, distinctive - I doubt she could manage to restrain herself (hee!) long enough to not get banned again.
