Oh please. You’d drop me like a hot rock for **Zappo. ** I’m no fool. 
You’ll have to stand in line. 
No, really, it’ll be fun.
Damn, I need a new tiara.
Yeah, you, me, Geobabe, TruePisces, and who knows how many others.
Zappo is a favorite, for sure.
::looks around::
Shit, when did I become one of the popular kids?
I can’t wait for this!
C’mon, Zap, all the wimminz luuurves ya.
And the menz admires ya.
You’re officially a member of the Royal Order of the Helluva Guys.
ZAAAAAPPPPOOOOOO!!!
Dave’s been trying to scam the Tastykakes you promised me!!! Make him stop!!! 
Just one. I just wanted one butterscotchie. Honest.
Not even a whole pack.
Just one.
One cake.
…mmmmm…butterscotchie goodness…
I’ll be monopolizing Zap like an oil baron on a gusher. But without the monocle. (Barons of any type require monocles. As does The Penguin. But not penguins in general. They don’t wear monocles. They wear contact lenses 'cause they ain’t got ears to hold up glasses with.)
[shill] If one of the people coming down from Canada loves me a whole bunch and would like to give me a birthday present I am DYING for an Aero bar. I haven’t had one in about a year. I will love you all forever. [/shill]
How come the train from Vermont is $18 and the train from here, which is closer and a straight line down the tracks, is $36 each way?
He’s lying! He wanted them all! He’s just trying to make himself look all innocent and stuff!
:::sniffle:::
racinchikki, I think I can get Aero bars right here in my hometown. I’ll look for ya, and if I find any, I’ll bring you one or three. Just cause I likes ya.
And Persephone, you … you … ooooh, you…
grrrrr. :mad:
Hey, **Zappo? **
Never mind.
Dave has successfully blackmailed me into giving him a butterscotchie.
Oh well.
hee hee hee
knowledge really ispower!
Looks like I’m now a tentative to be at the House of Pain. Still have to wait for a few planets to align, but I’m really looking forward to (re)meeting many of you (you know who you are). Just clear the I-80 corridor of all deer, and everything should be fine!
Well. That pleases me greatly.
…okay, so it actually makes me do the Wild Happy Dance around my living room. But you get my point.
Alas, I will not be able to attend the festivities. (I can’t believe that I haven’t caught this thread before now.) I have a big mamma-jamma wedding to attend, and Rebound Guy is coming all the way to Charleston for the event. So, you guys have fun. Include me when you drink a toast to Dopers who couldn’t be there. 
Well, OK. I guess I can handle that.
BTW, Skerri, you’re on my short list of Dopers I Must Meet[sup]TM[/sup]. If I ever find myself in Charleston (you are in Charleston, right?), which happens to be my second-favorite city in the whole world, I promise to let you know beforehand.
Aww, LindyHopper, you made my day. I don’t think I’ve ever been on anyone’s list before!
Yes, I am in Charleston, born and raised here. Let me know, and we’ll definitely get together.
When you started showing the whole Doper Community what a total and complete sweetheart you are, silly man!
All I know is that DaveW0071, Persephone, Zappo, Lindyhopper, pucette, Eutychus, racinchikki, soda, and many, many, many others (I just don’t have the time to name them all!) better make sure there’s time for me to monopolize! I refuse to be left out of the monopolization, whether y’all want me or not!
So there!
Geez. My head’s all swole up like a Tastykake cupcake all fulla creamy goodness. :
:
Persephone: Don’t worry, sweetheart. There will be plenty of Tastykakes for you to enjoy and take home, too. I won’t let mean 'ol Dave take 'em all.
DaveW00: Thank you, sir. You’ll have to show me the handshake and Secret Sign Of Recognition when we get together.
racinchikki: Wooooooo! Monocle or not, you wanna monopolize lil’ ol’ me? Just call me Marvin Gardens, then! 
TruePisces: You get any sweeter, I’m gonna need a pancreas transplant!
This is gonna be the BEST BIRFDAY EVER!
Zappo … if it makes you feel any better, I don’t care if I meet you or not.
