Stepping a bit out of the mod box for a minute and if this should be moved so be it
Edited on Tue Aug-31-10 05:25 PM by maddezmom
one of my favorite DU'ers of all time responded to me about the Lolcats and said I could share, so I am.

This is Bob. A pleasure. A Joy. :)

I fear there is bad news on this. The new machine went last night, and I am heartbroken about it. DainBramaged has done so much, and has done it selflessly.

There will be no LOLz this Sunday, maybe for quite a few Sundays to come. I need a break. The worries of repeated computer failure have taken a toll on me, and on my family as well. I know how much they are looked forward to, for noone enjoys them as much as I do.

Smiles. Bloody joyous laughter, and a weekly chance to send hello's and love to people I truly hold dear. But for now I must say Adieu. It will be for a bit of time is all I can say, for nothing is permanent aside from That and That.

This choice is based on only one thing. The toll on my Family. There's been too much of that, and I refused to add to it unnecessarily. Wish me love, for that is all I have for you, and all the wonderful souls who inhabit DU.

Until then, I remain
Your Servant. Your Friend.
Bob


Post this if you wish. No tears dammit. Not from one of you. When the world turns upside down, one must learn to stand on one's head. My face is beet red. :D

Much Love.
SCE

2. LOVE Bob aka SCE. I hope it's only 'puter malfunctions and
we'll see him back around. Thanks, maddezmom.

3. So would a new computer help
At the bottom of this post is a link to a place called wishadoo, people can ask for or give stuff. Maybe we could get another computer for him.

7. That's what I was thinking
Maybe someone has a decent, workable model around and can send it to him. Heck, they are so cheap, it would be quick to raise the money if that is something everyone looked forward to.

8. LOLcats will be missed
I've enjoyed every single one that I've had the privilege to see. I hope this is only temporary but if not, thanks for all the great laughs SCE! :hug:

9. I always considered the Lolcats a generous gift from a wonderful guy.
No expectations, but laughs a plenty when they did show. Time is precious, Bob....spend it with your family. Those with a serious yearning for the kitties know where to go. :) Big hugs, SCE. :hug:

10. Why is LOLCats a Lounge thing in the first place? I would think everyone in GD would enjoy it.
