Question To Mods: Can We Have A Thread To Honor Some Of Those Who Have Left Us?
Would it still be considered "Grave Dancing" just to list some that have left an impression?

Edited on Wed Jun-11-08 09:30 AM by Patsy Stone
Even The Lounge noticed our bonding. :) It was a great way to start a Sunday.

Gone, but never forgotten. I wanted to adopt him as the mascot, but the Mods wouldn't let us keep him.

Meldread had the best line in the whole thing: "We slip the gay in the Kool-Aid". Just about spit my green tea on my monitor.

He was just two days short. That guy would spin and re-spin just about everything. I had like 1 rational conversation with him ever.

Edited on Wed Jun-11-08 09:12 AM by Bleachers7
He was so adamant that it would never happen and that he knew Edwards so well, that Edwards would never do it.

Edited on Wed Jun-11-08 09:18 AM by grantcart
Yes she was all over the place and very emotional. I think she was very sincere and carried a great deal of pain.

Exchanged a lot of PMs with her and found a very sweet person. She would go over the top but still I was touched by her.

Or three times, if you count her alias "MagsDem".

Great level of trollishness, that one. Lived somewhere in Missouri (I think) and tried to tell me what happenned in a Washington state caucus.

62. What did she do?
She struck me as being non-obnoxious, and she didn't seem to get too into the primary wars, so I'd have a hard time figuring what would get her tombstoned.

Yesterday, or day before, I grave danced regarding a certain M... P.... poster.

They never had sex standing up because they think someone might see them and think they're dancing.
