Seriously! I finally made it back to Cornell today. Bad weather made me put off my flight plans a few days. I got home, unpacked, recharged the phone, called the folks, then ate dinner. After dinner, I checked my mail. What do I find but a one dollar bill from the SDMB’s own Satan! Isn’t that just the best? Sweet!

That’s what you get when you support Satan in the Great Debate’s popularity contest.

All hail Satan!

Isn’t Brian just the coolest guy?

I’ll go along with a cheer for Satan.  
On a side note, you picked the wrong day to come back up here. Throw a couple extra blankies on the bed and stay out of the wind.

Got this in an email today and was looking for a good place to post it. This is as good as any.

Cheer! Cheer! Cheer!

Yeah, he’s a devil all right, but heck, he’s _our_ devil.

Good on ya, Brian. Says something when Satan scrupulously pays his debts. Damn (so to speak), but the lad sets a fine example, doesn’t he?

“Says something when Satan scrupulously pays his debts.”

HAH! Seems to me he still owes a few of us a buck from a post he made over in GD. Oh Satan hon…pay up.

I’ll say. This morning I check the weather:

Temp: 3 deg F  
Wind Chill: **-34** deg F

(sigh) what a wonderful place.

I may have sold my soul for a dollar, but it’s to the SDMB’s Satan, not just any old Satan, and that’s saying something.

I’m gonna keep this dollar, it’ll always be good for a smile and a laugh, it’s something I never expected. Hell, it was a joke and he sent me a dollar.

I just can’t get over it, he actually sent the dollar.

I laugh just thinking about it. And I’m telling people about it too, not just those on the SDMB.

Look, this guy sent a dollar! So? Well, ya know.

I’m just wondering what would happen if one of the Pounders decided to post this over in LDMB! :eek:
