[populistmom]

19. He might not have computer access temporarily

He's in the midst of a major transitional type thing, but you can still keep kicking it as long as you want (another thread that wouldn't die so to speak, but it may be awhile). As for me, I've missed him so much I couldn't keep looking at my Forrest vigil picture I had because it made me sad :cry: and too open, so I now have my own, private silent vigil.

So, in case you didn't know Forrest, but I know you do, I miss you, lots and lots. You're the best.
:loveya:

Oh wait.

Gump... Yes. Vaguely remember him.

Had some sort of Salma Hayak fixation. Wrote with affection about his home village of Wetwang in the U.K.

[Screaming Lord Byron]

33. Wetwang? Isn't that in Lord of the Rings?

Nindalf and Wetwang. Help me out Tolkien freaks!

[Screaming Lord Byron]

34. Wetwang - The great marshland beneath the Emyn Muil

Wetwang
The great marshland beneath the Emyn Muil





The name in the Westron tongue for the marshes beneath the Emyn Muil that the Elves called Nindalf.

Jeeze, ForrestGump, have mercy on those near to her and check in... she really needs to haul that shirt to the laundry....

(Besides, you know you STILL owe that e-mail LOL that you've been working on for the past 5 weeks, dude! My inbox is so sad these days. Get settled already, you ramblin man, you. Don't let it all stressors take over everything again. Just be and it'll be okay.)

[ForrestGump]

58. And if I weren't so enlightened

a Militant Lesbian (trainee) Feminist (trainee) this is where I'd pinch her bottom. I mean, the timing is just so perfect.

Curse my New Age sensitivity!

[SOteric]

59. What?! Sensitive guy...?

Who are you really, - and what have you done with our Forrest?!

[ForrestGump]

65. I'm the New ForrestGump!

Actually, pretty much the same as the previous model, but more economical to run. :-P

[ForrestGump]

55. Hello...my name's Forrest...Forrest Gump

No, really. A'member me?

Hey, HEyHEY!

(apologies to both Bill Cosby and Fat Big-Boned Albert)

You crazy Canadan from Canadia, eh. Look what you did.

Dude! :yourock:

Jeez, persons, I had no idea that I'd ever become the subject of a "whatever happened to" thread, but I'm honored, touched, and - yes - strangely aroused by all of these postings. Thanks, noble DUers, for caring Where In The World Is ForrestGump. And I didn't even get to provoke it by starting the "I'm leaving DU" exit thread that is my God-or-maybe-something-else-given right (I believe the quota's one per half-year and, sadly, I'm still absolutely virginian in that respect).

:grouphug:

But, really, can't a dude just hotwire NSMA's car and head under cover of darkness for his Fortress of Solitude Studlitude without it being remarked upon? There I was, in that undisclosed location (the place, not the Most Excellent DUer), and I tell you that you just couldn't see the Forrest for Therese. And Marilyn. And Candy. And Bambi. And Dancer, and Prancer, and Donner und Blitzen (na du, fraulein!).

Of course, the reality is something else entirely, but I don't see what the early 21st Century has to do with reality, so if it's good enough for the (sort of) government of the (barely) United States of America it's good enough for me. Just please don't tell Salma, 'cos she'll be shattered.

Standard disclaimer: perpetual sleep deprivation. With a complication of severe DUer deprivation.

Thanks, all y'all. I'm going to be scarce a little bit more and don't even have time now to properly express to each of you how I feel, but I hope that you know...collectively, you're the best. Individually, you're even better.

By the way, sorry about the car, NSMA. I don't know what came over me (and that's not a double entendre). I'll have it back, waxed and sporting a brand new "I've Been to Dildo" sticker on its rear (that might be a double entendre - I'm not sure).

Wish I could get you each a box of chocolates (or low-cal/health-friendly alternative). :loveya:

[supernova]

56. HEY YOU!!!!!!

:hug:

Glad you finally resurfaced!!!! :D

[ForrestGump]

62. Hey, yourself!

Ms superdupernova!

I've got some pretty good lung capacity, I must say, but I had to surface sooner or later. Of course, I'm plunged into abject terror at the thought of wandering through my DU inbox...it was already rife with towering, teetering (ooo...I said 'teet') stacks of unanaswered mail. But to surface to such wonderful peoples...aahhh...that's not bad at all.

:loveya:

[supernova]

70. Don't stay away too long

we miss you when you're gone. :*

[SOteric]

57. *Smooch*

I don't know how you worked your way out of the freezer, or the ziplock baggies, but hey, - good to see you, cutie!

[ForrestGump]

63. *shucks*

:-D

I got smooched.

:-D

Cool.

:-D

If I'd known that chicks dig absence, I'd have disappeared a long time ago!

('chicks' and 'dig' in their full ironic sense, of course)

Hi! Yep, I'm the Gump Who Came In From The Cold. Now you know why the ice-cream went so fast.

:pals:

[HEyHEY]

60. FORREST!

HEY NICE TO HAVE YOU BACK!
Hope all is well!

[ForrestGump]

66. HEyHEY!

Hey!

Ooo....déja vu...

I said hello, Forrest
Yes, hello, Forrest
It's so nice to have you back where you belong...

Well, in a sort of "hello, I must be going" way. But this excursion back to the Promised Land of DU is just gonna make me more eager to get back to regular monitorings of DU yakking as soon as I can.

Stay warm up there! I'm sure it's a Three Yak Night up yonder.

Thanks, Mr HEY!

[bicentennial_baby]

61. Forrest!!!!!!!!!

I missed you sweetie! :hug:

I thought you were dead...

But I see you're very much alive

I'm so happy!!!

[ForrestGump]

67. Ha! I love it!

Hey, baby! I mean, Ms baby. :-D

I love your breakdance - that's the kind of spin that I want to see more of!

[Zomby Woof]

64. Great to see ya FG!

:hi: The Lounge misses you! I miss you! The yaks miss you! :bounce:

[ForrestGump]

68. Mr Woof!

Salutations to you and to your bovine (yea, hairy and horny) friends!

All hail Yakov Ages! :toast:

[populistmom]

69. So the one night I actually go somewhere...

You come back for an all too brief little interlude, Mr. Gump. Thank you though for letting me know though through other means. ;) I was getting worried again. Watch out for the loonies before your transition and I hope (well, we all hope) to catch up with you again soon.

Your loyal, flirtateous (albiet extremely selectively flirtatous), disgruntled, Connecticut housewife,

Sarah/populistmom
