There are too many funny and memorable Lounge moments to recount. I do miss Matcom's lounge threads and my many DU conversations and PMs with BOSSHOG.
BOSS and I shared a love of pink lawn flamingos, garden gnomes, gardening, Cajun and creole cuisine and New Orleans.
Berthavenation posted the first response to my first newbie thread. She was very kind.
I lurked starting in 2001 and joined in 2004.
DU kept me informed, amused and sane during the horrible Bush years.
As a Georgian, it was horrifying to see our state go first ALL Diebold in the nation and, subsequently become a red state. The smearing of Max Cleland by Sack of Shit (Saxby) Chambliss was one of the worst things I have ever experienced. My former senator and former GA SoS , Max Cleland, is an amazing person and I was/am so appalled of how he was treated here in Georgia by the GOP.
I consider it an honor to be a member of such an amazing community of fellow Democrats!
You are the best! Cheers to you all! I LOVE DU!
