You know, sometimes I wonder if we take this nickname thing too far. :dubious:

Naah, works for me! 😃

FDiL’s stepdad died today, reportedy with a bowl of ice cream in his hand. Not one that I ever thought of, but not a bad way to go.

{{{ **MBG** }}} I know BP2 is extremely difficult to live with sometimes, but it can be done. And having the support of others, like the entire MMP, definitely helps. Just remember, we’re all here for you 24/7.

Back home now, thinking of scouting around for some leftovers. Work begins again tomorrow. ☹

Hey all, just hoping to be last in this MMP.

Glad things worked (are working) out, **MBG**.

To everyone else, waving hi!

And to some people (you know who you are) :bounce, bounce, bounce:

Eh, it’ll be fine in a few days. It’s weird - things were so quiet around here - I attributed it to the loss of search - for a few days, and then all of a sudden it was like someone set fire to an anthill. It’s been interesting to watch.

We have “ask the satanist”, “ask the stanist”, “ask the satinist”, and now “ask that sadist”, the last of which is the second MPSIMS thread on the front page about, um, non-traditional relationships.

No new posts button? I’m can’t even keep up with those two threads as well as the honking big Pit trainwreck about them.

Well. We both ended up getting drunk. And sitting on the floor and watching her Columbo DVD’s. And talking. And making plans.

Jeeebus I love this woman.

You guys too, though I have to say her more.

Thanks y’all, and **VBob** , thinking of you too. I had a bowl of ice cream, as a kind of memoriam.
