So, I've been away from DU quite a bit the last two days.

[GOPisEvil]

What have I missed? :)

[Droopy]

1. The groups have been rearranged

Don't know if you are into them or not. There's some pretty good discussion going on in the groups. But it moves slow most of the time.

[GOPisEvil]

2. I'm in a few - thanks.

Some good stuff in there. In fact, I need to peruse them a bit now.

[SOteric]

3. Flamewars, trolls, copycat threads,

Polls on meaningless subjects, picture threads (everyone's gorgeous, of course), and also the sigline business.

:hi:

[GOPisEvil]

6. So, the usual?

I caught the sig line thing a bit yesterday. I decided to play nice and remove my "Sloth and Indolence" picture. :)

[fishnfla]

4. apparantly mods can "molest" sig lines

or some DUers have theirs unmolested

[greatauntoftriplets]

5. New restrictions on sigline size.

Did you watch the Arlington Million today? At least the deluge stopped in time. It's all or nothing in Chicago...I was out on flooded streets. NOT that I am complaining after so many weeks with no rain.

:hi:

[Dora]

7. Someone announced their departure from DU

It seemed very cryptic and very dramatic.

Were you in Crawford?

[progmom]

11. really?

i missed it. who?

[GOPisEvil]

13. Huh? What?

Who?

To answer your question, I was in Crawford Thursday, at work Friday during the day, and visiting with friends yesterday evening and today.

[Dora]

26. I think it was

anarchy_1999, but I may be wrong about the underscore.

I'm sure I missed some of the relevant threads. The departure occurred last night.

I'm not certain it's a complete departure: it may be an extended break in order to gather thoughts.

There was lots of hugging.

[GOPisEvil]

27. Ahhhh...yeah...she's a very, very committed activist.

She also posts in a manic style. I saw some of the kerfluffle yesterday.

[Left Is Write]

8. I don't know. I've only popped in for short periods of time myself!

[GOPisEvil]

24. This is the longest I've been on since early Thursday morning.

I think my headache earlier was DU withdrawal symptoms. :hi:

[In_The_Wind]

9. me

cause I've missed you.

[GOPisEvil]

10. Sorry, I was out of town with friends.

:) I've missed you as well. I got your PM. :)

[In_The_Wind]

14. Yes, I saw your thread from Crawford.

I knew you were away and I thought you might enjoy a little *giggle* hence the PM.

I'm sure you are happy to be back home again.

[GOPisEvil]

17. It's nice to be relaxing in my living room.

Although going to Crawford and seeing my friends in San Antonio was a lot of fun.

[short bus president]

12. I put a padlock on my

garage...

:P

[GOPisEvil]

21. Well there are worse places to put a padlock.

;)

[HEyHEY]

15. Alhedges and ASmetigoc were caught french kissing in the cloak room

[GOPisEvil]

18. Again?

:eyes:

[HEyHEY]

20. Yeah, and the hose doesn't always work anymore

[GOPisEvil]

22. Hmmm...might need buckets of ice water.

[TexasLady]

16. Have u missed me??

It was great to see you again, btw!
:hi:

[GOPisEvil]

19. Definitely!

I wish I could have stayed there in Crawford with y'all! But it was good seeing you again. :hi:

[Dastard Stepchild]

23. Ah-ha....

I thought there was an absence of GOPisEvil posts. :)

[GOPisEvil]

25. I went out and got a life for a few days.

Go figure! :D

[Dastard Stepchild]

42. wonderful!

Having a life, if only for a few days, is still a most excellent thing. :)

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

28. You missed me!

OF COURSE! :D

[GOPisEvil]

29. Of course!

:D:hi:

[u4ic]

30. WWIII has started, California is under water

and the largest deposit of oil ever has been found under Lichtenstein.

Guess the news coverage in Texas isn't so hot? :shrug:








:hi:

[GOPisEvil]

31. News? People watch that stuff?

:hi:

[u4ic]

32. I've heard rumours...

:shrug:

[GOPisEvil]

33. You're one of them Canuckistanians...you get real news up there.

If it weren't for DU, I don't know what I'd do for news. :)

[u4ic]

34. Unfortunately the news is saying

Cheney is coming up here next month. :scared: :grr: :scared: :grr: :scared: :grr: :scared:

[GOPisEvil]

35. Noooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!

Run, RUN!!!!!!!!!!!!! :scared:

[u4ic]

36. I could start running now

and still not be out of the province by the time he arrives...it is pretty big, after all ;-)

I guess I'll just have to arm myself with a hockey stick and a can of RAID.

[GOPisEvil]

39. Keep the lights on. I hear they hate the light.

;)

[no name no slogan]

37. matcom's new sigline pic

you gotta see it, if you haven't already. it TOTALLY kicks ass!!!!

[GOPisEvil]

40. I have seen that.

Look at that little ass go!

[progmom]

38. i've not been here much all week

but i missed you when i was here. :)

[GOPisEvil]

41. Thanks.

Seems like lots of folks aren't around much this week.

It's good to see you. :hug:

[bicentennial_baby]

43. Me, getting propositioned by a frenchman in a unisex bathroom

There's a thread about it around here somewhere... :rofl:
