I just convinced a friend of mine to join the SDMB. Her name is Franklin and she’s a very nice person. She would always remember my birthday and bake me a cake. She’s one of my very good buddies so I’ll hope you will all be nice to her and tell her what a good guy I am. Franklin, take it away!
Take what away? Erm.ah. Tugging at collar. Ta Da? I hope I can spend some quality time lurking here before I have to say anything more. And, Hello Arnold’s friends!

Welcome, Franklin!! Any friend of Arnold’s is a freind…

Welcome, Franklin; make yourself at home.
Welcome, Franklin. May you never forget your link.
Welcome to the board Franklin.
Welcome, Franklin! Heck, may you never forget your password! ::mumbles curses about disk problems::
It’s a great place, with great people. Weird, cranky, to be sure, but it’s addictive.

hi Franklin, enjoy your stay. 
Hello, Franklin.
I met Arnold IRL. Nice guy. Even if he won’t fly with me! 
Way to reel another one in, Arnold! (Who’s in charge of pitching the Amway spiel this time?)
Hi Franklin,
Welcome aBoard!
Tell us, how did you choose your screen name?
welcome franklin. hope you enjoy it here.
Franklin, welcome. Sorry we’re all a little bummed at the moment, but you understand.
In memory of Wally I feel I must ask you to send nude photos of yourself to http://www.rememberwally.com.
Welcome Franklin, I hope you enjoy your stay.
Don’t worry, we don’t bite, well not much anyway. No matter what anyone says we are nice people.
Please don’t be upset if there aren’t too many posts here tonight, we are all reeling tonight.

We miss you WallyM7
Welcome, Franklin. Glad to have you join us.
This is where I’d usually say something silly or funny, and stick in a few smilies. Please forgive me, I can’t tonight.
Looking forward to reading your posts. Don’t be a stranger.

Welcome, Franklin!
If you haven’t heard by now, don’t EVER call Arnold Winkelried legendary. My SDMB posting career almost ended before it started!
Hey Franklin, feel free to make a joke or two. We could use it. Most of us are pretty darn fun loving, really.
Hi. Sorry we’re all so glum.
