The ride is short and the thrills are cheap- men and rollercoasters.
Hee. Still makes me laugh!

I got my Wally .sig months before the thread started. See, Wally lived in Toronto, and I’m a huge Buffalo Bills fan. He used to tease me all the time about it.
The Buffalo Bills suffered a pretty nasty loss in last year’s playoffs. They were winning with 14 seconds left, and then the Tennessee Titans had a trick lateral on a kickoff return, running it back for a touchdown. Somewhere, I ended up venting my frustrations. And Wally came back with…
“Buffalo Bills? Oh, yeah. The guys that always snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.”
I laughed in spite of myself, asked him if I could use it as a .sig, and thus, the first ever Wally .sig was born.
I stole my Wally sig from a remark he made in the Wallysig thread.
Here’s mine…I’m so glad I was lucky enough to get one.
Please put your WallyM7 sigs in the body of the post, not the actual signature box in your profile, for the purposes of this thread.
If you put your Wally sig in the signature box in your profile, if and when you change your sig, it will display the change in all of your posts that you’ve posted since the change to vBulletin, including this thread.
:wally
If you think I’m a bitch now, wait until I pass my Bar exam.
Don’t worry though, this one is staying until I quit posting on the board.
I’m with Nacho - I won’t be changing my sig line on this board - EVER. But here’s the sig line again:
He was a lot older than I, but he was rich, so I married the old geyser.
Authentic Sig line by Wally!
I’ve had two WallySigs, one here and one on FFF.
SDMB: “I made my husband join a bridge club. He jumps next Tuesday.”
FFF: “Women are from Venus. Men are wrong.”
My original sig, “The quickest way to a man’s heart is through his ribcage,” was removed at Wally’s lighthearted request, shortly before his heart surgery. I still have the list he sent me, and I’ll be choosing another WallySig soon.
Thanks Opal, for collecting all of these. It’s a great idea, and an excellent tribute to Wally.
My Wally sig:
I never hate myself in the morning. I sleep till noon.
I was sad because I had no shoes, till I met a snake with no legs -My Wally original.
Opal, I think I’m going to take mine from something Wally said to me . . . to my knowledge, the only time he ever addressed me personally:
“Jesus H. Christ on a neon green 1969 Harley Davidson Electra Glide Flat Head, what the fuck are you talking about, iampunha?”
I think I get the reference to the motorcycle now. At the time I thought it was a bunch of strung-together words.
“Organs gross me out. That’s organs, not orgasms”
( Thanks Wally. )
I don’t know if they count, but I got two direct compliments from dear Wally. I can’t find the other one…if someone happens upon it, could you let me know?
Here’s the one I did find…
Grow your own dope. Plant a man.
I don’t think I’m going to take it out of my sig, but Cajun is right.
“Hey, Monster, in case I forgot to say so before, I think you’re an okay guy. Hope you stick around. We need you, man.”
Thank you Wally…gonna miss you man.
I just went back to C&P my WallySig and noticed that in my profile, under interests, my first entry is, “Bothering Wally.”
I put that up as an inside joke between him and me about two and a half months ago when he said I must love poking him with sharpened sticks.
I’d forgotten about until just now.
::Poke, poke::, buddy.
FWIW, “My Wallysig: Avast and ahoy, landlubbers! Shore leave’s in August. Hide your women!”
I love that he took the time to do this for so many people…
Ok, I’ll re-enter my Wally sig into the body of my post:
This is getting hard. Somebody relieve me. (A Wallian exclamation)
Well, he’s been relieved. But I am still so damn sad about it. It’ll take a while to get happy again. Odd. One of the quickest ways I knew of to get happy was to read a Wally thread. Shit. I miss him. There wasn’t a better man on the board.
Angelina, Amy, Steve…your loss is tremendous, but the man you shared with us was fabulous. I wish I had been so lucky as to have such a wonderful person so close to me.
Good point Cajun Man
I do not merely dance. I bewitch. I seduce. I enchant and I bewilder. Throw money.
(Gee, Wally must have seen me dance!)
I printed this out and took it to dance class with me one week. Everyone that I showed it to loved it.
