I am leaving DU

[XemaSab]

for a week, starting tomorrow.

I need to delegate some tasks in my absence.

Progmom-- It's your responsibility to keep all the goodnight threads kicked. I usually start at page 20 and work my way back.

Crazy Guggenheim-- To you falls the task of making sure that the lounge is well supplied with popcorn.

LSK-- Your job is to K&R all the surprise postings of the brazilian joke, including both photographic and text renditions of said joke.

SeattleGirl- You must assist billy in threadjacking posts. This is a serious task, and it will take planning and coordination.

Are there any questions?

[Crazy Guggenheim]

1. Awww. We'll miss you.

:popcorn:

[XemaSab]

3. I'll miss you too!

Are you on top of the popcorn situation?

[LSK]

2. why you leaving?

:popcorn:

[XemaSab]

4. I need to go look at birds

in Southern California. I can't do that while goofing off on DU at the same time.

[LSK]

6. ok, have fun, we'll miss you

:popcorn:

[SeattleGirl]

5. I'm happy to help, Xema!

Threadjacking posts is one of my best skills! :evilgrin:

[XemaSab]

7. Terrific!!!!

I'm frankly a little freaked by the fact that 3/4 people mentioned in the OP are the first people to respond here.

[SeattleGirl]

13. Don't be

It's 11:00 pm here, 2:00 a.m. on the East coast, and whatever the hell time it is in other parts of the world. I think this time of night/day is traditionally somewhat slow on DU for posting.

Believe me, you'll be missed! :pals:

[XemaSab]

14. Awww... thanks!

:pals:

[SoCalDem]

49. If you see this bird, please don;t get too close or try to take his

Theraflu

[FuzzySlippers]

8. I'm a little disappointed you didn't delegate

any tasks to me. But I'll still miss you. I guess.x(

[XemaSab]

10. Do you want to help everyone else

with their tasks? :shrug:

'Cause that would be terrific too! :bounce:

[FuzzySlippers]

12. Ok! Hey, I'm not proud!

:bounce:

[SeattleGirl]

15. Fuzzy, you can help me and billy threadjack!

That's always fun! :bounce:

[FuzzySlippers]

25. Yipee!!!

:bounce:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

9. WHAT! No jobs for me?

I'm so hurt.......:cry:

Seriously, have a great time! Will you be anywhere near LA?

I'd love to see you!

:loveya: :hug:

[XemaSab]

11. Your job is to post bird pictures

I think Ventura is as far south as it gets.... :shrug:

[NMMNG]

16. I'll miss you while you're gone

I had to re-read your post. I originally thought LSK was to K&R postings of the brazilian joke, including both pornographic and text renditions of said joke. :rofl:

Yes, I have a gutter mind. :P

[XemaSab]

17. I'm still waiting

for the magical combination of Matcom's glitter photo and the brazilian joke to be as one....

[Oeditpus Rex]

18. You forgot to delegate someone to make me go

AAARRRGGGHHH!!! :banghead:



Your immediate attention would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

Epstein's Mother

[XemaSab]

20. That's the task of the 85,000 DU'ers left unmentioned!

:bounce:

[Oeditpus Rex]

27. Aw, man...

That's all they ever get to do. x(

[billyskank]

22. *sniffle*

I'll miss you.

I loves you too. :hug:

[khashka]

23. So what's my job?

Flirting with Billy? If so..... well, don't hurry back soon. I like that job!



Khash.

[KitchenWitch]

24. you are such a whore!

:rofl:

[billyskank]

26. Hey KW

:hi:

[KitchenWitch]

30. Hi billy!

:loveya:

[SeattleGirl]

35. darlin' billy!

I have to say, I'm so very pleased that the broccoli fairy asked me to help threadjack posts with you! :loveya:

[billyskank]

37. We must endeavour to maintain standards in her absence

What a shitty way to start the day, though. :(

[SeattleGirl]

39. And to end it, too!

But we will do our best, won't we, because we loves her!

[khashka]

29. I don't know whether to laugh or cry!

KitchenWitch called me a whore!


I think it really means that she'd secretly like to snog me silly....

Khash.

[KitchenWitch]

32. ssshhhh - don't tell anyone!

:rofl:

[XemaSab]

28. You and xmas74

need to make sure that all threads that mention Trent are given --proper-- attention!

[u4ic]

31. Have fun birding!

:bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

[XemaSab]

33. Thanks!

:bounce:

[SmileyBoy]

34. YAAAAYYYY!!!! I have no responsibilities!!!

:bounce:

[SeattleGirl]

36. I'm going to give you one (if Xema doesn't mind)

Your job will be to do one-sentence summaries of EVERY SINGLE LOUNGE POST while Xema's away!

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :evilgrin:

[laheina]

38. Have fun Xema!

Even if you have to go to SoCal. :scared:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

40. My dear laheina.......

I want you to know that there are many positive features to SoCal!

Esp. if you ignore the traffic, the smog, and the housing prices..... :scared:

[laheina]

42. My dad lives down there. :)

He lives in Lancaster. Maybe that's part of the problem!

No, I'm only kidding. I've just lived here so long that I'm a snob that way--not that there is a tremendous amount of difference between the two.

And our traffic, smog, and housing prices are getting pretty bad too, but have you looked at the prices in Santa Monica lately, oy!

[XemaSab]

41. It'll be fun!

I'm going to work on my county bird lists for Ventura, Santa Barbara, and San Luis Obispo counties! :bounce:

[laheina]

43. Fer why?

Is that a work thingie, or purely a fun project?

I've never really been birding, so I am probably ignorant of its better qualities.

[XemaSab]

44. It's just for fun!

Listing birds is an addictive hobby, and county listing is the last refuge of the burned out birder!

FWIW, I'm also hoping for a few "new" birds, but hey, it should be a fun trip regardless. :bounce:

[laheina]

46. New to you,

or new to everybody?

I suddenly realized that it has the potential to be more interesting than *me* freezing off my tushie to look at stars. :) Stars, after all, are pretty darn predictable. :)

[Celeborn Skywalker]

45. Please don't go!

:cry:

[tjwmason]

47. See back soon.

We'll try not to :cry: too much in your absence.

[Skittles]

48. you want I should kick some ass, Xema?

those people desperately need it

[LSK]

50. well i must say that i have been lax in my duties

Anyone else?

[UrbScotty]

51. I shall be Interim Master of Sarcasm in your absence (nt)
