1. "around these here parts."
:rofl:

Sorry, just had to pick on that bit of wordage there. Funny thing is, I can sort of hear someone in Maine saying that, only making it sound like "ahround these heah pahts."

6. Depends what you mean by "awhile"
I miss temeah (sniff) and he's only been gone a week or so. More though, I agree with someone else that I miss Beam Me Up Scottie.
Though recently I was happy to discover that Realisticphish reappeared....

25. Rapid Creek from way back.
He was a good guy, and he had a neurological problem and was losing the use of his hands last I heard from him, and that was years ago. I think about him a lot, and wish I knew how he was.

32. My dear Ava!
What a nice idea for a thread!

I realized the other day that I was missing Green Meanie...

So I PM'd her, and she answered!

She's fine, and very busy offline...

I also miss HypnoToad...

I know Khashka's back, but he's not posting nearly enough for me!

39. Skittles, yesterday I was reading his journal-
I've had it blogrolled since we started the journals. He was a warm person and an amazing storyteller. I miss him too, very much.

46. I can see the attachment you felt for him.
He was inspiring, too. He felt familiar to me because he was just fearless about expressing himself and had a youthful kind of curiosity about the world. May he rest in peace.

Not only the incredibly thoughtful birthday greetings. An alltime treat on DU is when she interrupts a fiery thread to welcome a newcomer. Many times I've seen that welcome perspective and canceled a combative reply to the newbie or someone else in the thread.
