“Qadgop” is **Lensmen** –“sixth-order force” is **Skylark** (but I’m sure someone will correct me if senility has confuxed my brain). What I’m saying is that you won’t have to make a choice; you’re in a different universe.

I do not care for **Qadgop** as he refuses to return my erotic phone messages.

Glad this popped back up, so I can state for the record that when I go to prison, I want to be **Qadgop** ’s medical assistant/bitch.

Working strictly from memory and not troubling to consult any of my reference books, I’d give the rough translation as:

Him whose testicles you have, may you also have his heart and brain.

Perhaps someone less lazy than I, or with a better grasp of Latin, would like to come along and clean that up for me.

Kumquats and ostrich sausage have one very important thing in common:

You can’t say either of their names without giggling.

Finally, an opportunity to ask: \*\*Qadgop/b], what does your name mean?

It’s the name of the main character in the novel “Qadgop the Mercotan”, by Sybly Whyte.

Still haven’t had a kumquat. And I’m out of ostrich somersausage too. Damn.

99 out of 100 nurses, yours truly included, think that **QtM** is the bee’s knees.

(No, I am not 80 years old. It’s just a compliment, OK?)

I think I speak for the AAFP, when I say the Family Practitioners everywhere love QtM, and want to be him if we grow up.

Let me add my kudos to “The Qadge.” Anytime you’d like to switch to Radiology, doc, there’s a place for you at the VA in Mpls.

(I know I once made a bad joke about your screen name, and I home you’ve forgiven me.)

Missed this one when it first started. Sorry about that.

I’ve been a **Qadgop** fan for a long time now. All the best to you and yours in the new year, **QtM!**

I’m a big fan of **Qadgop**. I don’t think I’ve ever posted to any of his thread, but I always make a point to read them.

And now I’ll go back to admiring him from afar.
