Well, it you’ve GOTTA rename her, how about iampunma? Bad, I know. Apologies extended PD. Please accept.
Nice to have you aboard. Your son is…uh…well…um…a very nice boy. ahem
A really nice boy, actually. And a great date.
I can’t say “Jesus H. Christ?” Awwwwwww…crap. I could’ve sworn that that was starting to catch on. I felt it. Oh well, long as I still get “Hot damn!” “Booyah,” and “all shades of freaky!” Then I’m happy.
Hi phantomdiver!
iampunha - you are a brave man. I hope you continue to be yourself and don’t self-edit for yo’ momma’s sake. And that she doesn’t self-edit for yours.
She won’t restrain herself, I hope. And I certainly don’t plan to restrain myself (as shown by my most recent few posts in GD . . . Glory were they long!) anymore than I used to.
In short, if she’s got a problem, she can continue to have a problem:)
But I ain’t never been totally myself on this board. or much of any place.
Jester: just be glad my sisters didn’t join. They get antsy at the word crap, but they have no problem with the word freak. But say whatever you want. She’s allowed to be offended, you’re allowed to say what you want, within reason.
Ellen: Oh, sure, you say that when my MOM’s here! But when she leaves . . . you know you’ll go back to thinking I’m just a little baby . . .
struuter: don’t worry about it. Hell, my mom knows I’m not 2 anymore:) (and no, mama, I do not mean tuna half!)! When did we date? Ahem. Can I have pics?
[sub] btw, i am not a boy;) It comes with aging.[/sub]
How long before the thread about Eve dies? Please, NOBODY resurrect it! hopeless, pathetic look of despair
Patrick, you nitwit, I’m a Taurus. You’re a Libra. Look it up.
I don’t plan on being here very often, so I doubt there will be many interesting discussions between the two of us. Not that the Straight Dope isn’t wonderful and all that. It is. I just have other things to do – unlike my beloved son. 
phantomdiver
Hi Mom!
You have a great son.
I like her already. Too bad she won’t be spending more time here.
“Patrick, you nitwit”
snicker
“Patrick, you nitwit”
Hacha! Ooh-la-la! There ain’t nuthin’ more sexy than a woman with attitude!
Makes me wish I were a mother-fucker…
::runs from iampunha::
BWWAAHHHHAAAAHHHHAAA…
ROTFLMAO…
yeah, right…like none of us didn’t have lives before SDMB…sure, sure, you won’t be here often…you’ll just pop in from time to time, I’m sure… :: stifles giggle ::
we’ll just forget about the fact that many of us were gainfully employed full time before SDMB…now look at some of us…
Iampunha’s mom, it’s nice to meet you…I’m sure you’ll get sucked in, er, um, I mean I’m sure you’ll have a great time
Hi KimKatt!
Not even a little bit. You haven’t seen my house. <groan>
Gosh, if mine did, I’d have to do something drastic, too. However, fortunately my dad is dead and my mother is terrifically anti-computer as far as having anything to do with one in her house goes. They are too expensive. Two-week trips to the Near East are not. Hey, everybody’s got their own values.
I have an online photo somewhere, but I can’t find it. Patrick? Do you know where it is? You can have the file if you wanna put it on your site.
I know it was selfish. Sometimes one is selfish. And I really needed some selfish gratification before Patrick came along. My life has been way better since I got pregnant with him. – And the other three following you, Patrick, so don’t get a swelled head.
Thanks!
It doesn’t mean that at all, not even a little bit! LOL!
I dunno. His dad married an “older woman” – I’m two years older than he is. So you never know . . .
Thanks! But do we know each other from TMF?
Thanks! I like him too, most of the time! He will tell you quickly (if he hasn’t already) that he is a man, and he will deepen his voice when he says it. But you know how it is – he’s my boy forever, as I am my mother’s girl.
Sometimes we do. . .
Thanks for the welcome!
Thanks very much!
No, not G-rated – so you can call me phantomdiver. Or phantom. Or pd. But not mom. I am not your mom. Even Patrick doesn’t call me mom. Of course, he doesn’t call me phantomdiver either . . .
Oh, for heaven’s sake. Oh, well, I covered this.
And as for the guilt – have you called to your mother lately? (ROFL!)
I just bet you do . . . oh boy . . .
Thanks!
He is. Cute, too. And smart. Anybody wanna date him? I want grandchildren at some point. Why do you think I had kids?
Cuz I am cuter than you are. Nyah nyah.
Anybody wanna give me a clue on how I could do that? iampunha says I can’t. I doubt this.
Not even a little bit.
Hey, my bottom isn’t that big. And it’s 1956, not 2001.
I’m actually not quite sure where that picture is these days.
True. But I won’t necessarily go ballistic about it, either. Otherwise I couldn’t function in our world and welcome to it, as it were.
True again. And that explains a lot.
Why does post count matter? Do you get SD gold stars for lots of posts or something?
Truer words were never spoken, chief. Keep it up. <shudder>
Bonus points: Except for the comment in carets, what book does that quote come from?
No problem. But nobody needs to rename me.
I would love to hear this story. I’ve seen part of it in iampunha’s sig. Care to tell me the rest?
I love this quote! And it’s one of my husband’s favorites. (No, he’s not coming on the board. He doesn’t do this kind of stuff. Mostly.)
Since when can I stop anybody from saying anything? And don’t tell me you’re going to behave because a mom is here. Purplebear is a mom, and it doesn’t seem to give anybody pause. Or paws, in her case.
Alas, 'tis true . . .
Hi yourself!
I always do. But that is no problem. I don’t self-edit much.
Okay, I’ve had it. I am not posting to every well-wisher on this board, though I do appreciate every welcome wish. Thanks, guys! Long may you post!

Hmm…I’ve seen posters bring their kids into the SDMB, but this is the first I know of that one’s brought a parent.
Nice ta meetcha, phantomdiver.
You better run, bitch! I know where you live . . . sort of.
PD said: "I just have other things to do – unlike my beloved son. ;-)"
Things, people, household appliances, the apple tree outside, Timmy’s bicycle . . . :GDRLH:
Purplebear has lovely paws. I’ve seen them:)
PD: "Hmm…I’ve seen posters bring their kids into the SDMB, but this is the first I know of that one’s brought a parent."
Do I get one of David B.'s free toasters?
PD: "I have an online photo somewhere, but I can’t find it. Patrick? Do you know where it is? You can have the file if you wanna put it on your site."
I can think of any number of pictures I could scan in. Or I could take a digital pic of you. But there’s one pic I will NOT scan.
PD: "My life has been way better since I got pregnant with him. – And the other three following you, Patrick, so don’t get a swelled head. ;-)"
One can never have too much of a good thing. If only the next three had been good things . . .
PD: "Thanks! I like him too, most of the time! He will tell you quickly (if he hasn’t already) that he is a man, and he will deepen his voice when he says it. But you know how it is – he’s my boy forever, as I am my mother’s girl."
::Manly cough, manly burp and manly scratch of groin:: What was that?
PD: "And as for the guilt – have you called to your mother lately? (ROFL!)
I called mine a few hours ago.
PD: "He is. Cute, too. And smart. Anybody wanna date him? I want grandchildren at some point. Why do you think I had kids? ;-)"
Sigh. Mama, this is not a dating service. I say this from experience.
PD: "Originally posted by my darling baby boy, iampunha (mwa ha ha ha ha)"
You watch your mouth!
PD: "Cuz I am cuter than you are. Nyah nyah."
Which is, of course, why you are on everyone’s laminated list. I should remember that ITF.
PD: "Anybody wanna give me a clue on how I could do that? iampunha says I can’t. I doubt this."
I figure if I say that enough maybe it’ll magically come true. But seriously . . . most of it’s pretty tame. The rest is really nunya;)
PD: "Hey, my bottom isn’t that big. And it’s 1956, not 2001."
But the 1956 version is so . . . old, and yucky, and falling apart, and it needs a new coat of paint and a good oiling. And I didn’t mean to say anything about your bottom, SWIBBOTS:)
PD: "I’m actually not quite sure where that picture is these days."
So long as it’s not on the scanner or in the wrong hands . . . :breathes sigh of relief:
PD: "Why does post count matter? Do you get SD gold stars for lots of posts or something?"
No, we here at the SDMB are beyond little stars, unlike you children at TMF. It’s just that, in general, having lots of posts is an indication that A. you have way too much free time, B. you’ve got lots to say, C. you’ve not yet been banned, or D. you’ve been here for a while. regarding my 1500+ posts in less than three months . . . no comment:)
PD: "Originally posted by sweet little iampunha again"
Little? I’m bigger than you are, granny!
PD: "Bonus points: Except for the comment in carets, what book does that quote come from?"
My dear, decrepit old mother is, of course, assuming that any of us cares . . .
PD: "A really nice boy, actually. And a great date."
And you know this how? Mama, in the 2+ months I’ve been on the SDMB, I’ve discovered two things: don’t post threads with only smilies to ChiefScott, and don’t go looking for a date on the SDMB.
PD: "I would love to hear this story. I’ve seen part of it in iampunha’s sig. Care to tell me the rest? :-)"
She would, but she’s terribly shy. TERRIBLY shy. And has kids.
PD said: "No, he’s not coming on the board. He doesn’t do this kind of stuff. Mostly."
And if he does . . . AND IF HE DOES . . . hehehe. He don’t know nothing 'bout it, ‘ceptin’ he don’t trust Cecil. SO I probably don’t want to subject him to this.
Well, this has been one long-assed post. Pity I could access the SDMB but not freaking YAHOO to do my FOOTBALL DRAFT! ARGH!

That’s good, since I had no intention of stopping!
LOL!! And, it doesn’t, trust me! Either one! <nice play on words, btw. thanks!>
Thank you, my dear. Too kind. Now, if only you liked the rest of me too…

**That’s good, since I had no intention of stopping!
Well, thank god for that, NB.
Mmmmmmm… no comment. It’d only get me in trouble with too many people here. 
???
Thank you, my dear. Too kind. Now, if only you liked the rest of me too…
I like aas much of you as is . . . safe. Besides, I have the hots for your daughter . . . what does that tell you aabaout yourself?
A thousand welcomes, Phantom! Your posts have had me rolling off the chair laughing. You might be imapunha’s mom but it’s quite obvious you’re very much your own person. Besides, Phantom is much easier to type (not to mention classier) than something like urpunhasmom.
So…since the issue of pics was raised, please keep in mind that any “naked on the bearskin rug” shots of Patrick as a drooling infant would be gleefully welcomed. Or heck, a contemporary shot would be okay, too.
Raising kids isn’t a task for the weak, so if you need to drop The Big One, we’ll understand.
Still snickering,
Veb
We don’t have a bearskin rug. We have Xmas shots from long ago. Maybe I’ll scan some one weekend when I’ve nothing better to do.
The Big One? I thought it was called “dropping a deuce” . . . GDRLH!
Hey, GaWd brought MaWm (I cannot for the life of me remember her realUN!)
Welcome to the SDMB, pd! Fine boy ya got there–but a little on the flirty side!
Hi Phantom! I’ve been laughing my ass of at your posts. Welcome aboard!
I may not jump on anybody else, but I’m jumping on you, Paddy – please don’t call anybody female and human a bitch in my presence. Or outside my presence, if I hear about it. I thought I raised you better than that.
But then I have a slight migraine, for which I’ve taken some aspirin/caffeine pills, so I’m a little jumpy just now. Meaning that’s where I got the energy to type so much, not that you should call women bitches and hos (hoes?) and such.
Guys, it’s a goodie, though it doesn’t look like iampunha now – it’s your basic bearskin rug picture, with a bit of me in the altogether thrown in, because we’re in the tub – but I’m not going to release it for general consumption. That would be too mean. But artistically, I think it’s a very nice shot, though the bathtub grouting is pretty gross. If I were to publish that shot, I’d probably airbrush the grouting. (How do you do real smilies? Is there a smiley code? There must be.)
Or you’ll do what? LOL!!!
Not a granny yet. I can wait a few years. In the meantime, I’m working on it. Why do you think I tried to get you dates?
Oh, please. The local baron (not the king) of trivia doesn’t care? Give me a large break. Or give yourself one somewhere that won’t inconvenience me.
I did not say it. Struuter did.
Now I see how you guys spend your time. Scary.
