There's another year down the pan.

It is the morning after. The battlefield is littered with fallen Planet Heroes and Transformers, all is quiet for the generals are sound asleep. No longer is my living room overrun by the sounds of racing games on the X-Box. Instead I take this quiet time to ponder back on some of the funnier, sadder, more exciting moments of the year 2007 that will end in 5 short days.

Snobby School Parents

My neighbor, like all of us in my house, is a huge comics fan. More expressly X-Men. She has a wonderful Honda Element which has a sticker in the rear window reading thus:

The Xavier Academy
For exceptionally gifted children


I am still dying laughing at the neighbor who saw that and seriously thought it was a private school in our area. Even going so far as to post to the community forum asking:

"Where is The Xavier Academy? Is there a waiting list to get in? Please respond ASAP as my little one is registered at Chrysalis and I'd really like him in a more exclusive school."

Needless to say said idiot neighbor blames us for looking like a fool when we specifically told her no such school exists in real life. Not our fault she thought we were lying to get one up on her. Twits are everywhere. :biggrin1:

The Great LPSG Jihad

The plethora of religious sparked and threads turned religious (in some cases I don't know HOW they got turned that way).

Tio celebrate the end of the Jihad, I am having some bumper stickers made up. For $5 a sticker you can adorn your bumper with any of the following:


Cocks For Christ

or

WWJD: Who Would Jesus Do?

or

I found my Yule Log at LPSG

or

In the name of the Freddie, The Pecker, And the Admin Rob


You have to admit, you can't help bt laugh about it hindsight. Next up, Benny Hin loses sport coat and whips it out to put the healing on. That would put new spin on the term "cock slapped".

My LPSG Voices

This year I was honored to converse with five of the LPSG voices:

Cigarbabe and Mr. Ed - You two are much beloved in our household and cigarbabe? My neighbor says you sound like her favorite Aunt. Sorry I coudln't talk yesterday, I was getting whiskey refills from the neighbors.

TattooedMamaMeg - You are such a sweetheart and friend. I can't wait until we get back to Kansas City so we can finally hang out.

NJQT - You have the sweetest and most infectious laugh. Thank you for sharing a night of me instructing my 5 year old on how to "pick this up".

Notthe7 - You are such a sweet sexy lady and I can't wait til you get here for college so we can bring you in as the other adopted daughter.

People online that have truly touched my inner soul

There are tons of people on this site that have moved me with their hearts and minds, but a few stand out in my mind:

Veronica_Divine - She was one of the first people I encountered on this forum during a very low period in my married life. Her friendship, encouragement, and ability to listen saw me through.

Arliss - I know a lot of people hate on Arliss, but he was the first person to not only welcome me, but truly be a gracious and welcoming soul. Though he and I don't always agree, Brother Truth Speak always holds a special place in my eyes.

Naughty - many a day I wanted to chuck it all in and one person never would let me. That was naughty. Always there to make me feel better, let me rant when I needed to, and to guide me through the sometimes murky LPSG waters. Thank you.

Spoiled Princess - Always gracious, wiser than 10,000 people, and an honor to know. Congrats on the new addition to your family.

DC_Deep - I'm truly at a loss for words with you my friend. I've known you a little amount of time, but it already seems a lifetime. Thank you for your always kind words.

Lex - Your posts have given me thought and insight into a soul I would love to get to know as a friend.

Thickhead - You better get your butt over this side of the mountains for that beer.

bigguy2738 - A truly kindred soul. He and I on parallel journeys, but from different sides. A man who is growing and starting his new found life. Through your sharing I understand more and I am incented to give and share more of myself. Thank you for being guided into my realm. I am a much better person for the meeting.

thatgal - Here is the forum spitfire. When I first got here, she had more troubles than any person should have, but life never gets her down and she never quits. If only I had a tenth of the strength you have doo, I could conquer anything.

And last, but not least on my list of things...

My little Princess

Everyday she grows and learns more. strutting around in her Christmas finery, she is already learning to work a room just like her mom and dad. A true socialite in the making. My daughter wil be a world leader, a scientist, a basketball star (Daddy wants a Bentley), and a housewife. Bottomline my girl will be whatever she wants to be and she will be a success at it. My daughter will end up on the cover of TIME and I am sure on Rachael Ray's stage showing her one of the dishes her daddy made for her as a child.

I am sure ther is more and I will post as they come up, ubt you must admit, this is a nice start for having 5 days left to think of all this. :wink:

Thank you my friend!
I am honored and a far better person, for knowing you.
I haven't told you yet, but I try and tone down my hideous swearing streak when we converse!
Mery Xmas to all and a Happy New Year!
Mucho Love to you and the "DW" osiris!
cigarbabe:saevil: & Mr Ed
 
Thank you for the lovely sentiment Osiris.
I think I really am, a better person for knowing you.
I haven't told you this yet,but I have tried to "tone down" my mean
swearing streak,when I talk to you! It seems to last for hours,I suggest you bottle this and make some money!
I do consider you, to be one of my, "friends whom I never met".
That said,I love and admire you, and you're family for what you have
achieved,and for never giving up!
I love you Osiris.
Truly.
cigarbabe:saevil: & Mr Ed
 
Shew, Osiris, shew! I am at a loss for words. I don't think that I can claim your kind words for myself...I don't think that I've come anywhere close to what you've had to say...but they do challenge me to become a better person.

You are a wonderful man and in truth you are a beacon of hope and care to our community. Thank you for so generously sharing your wondrous gift of self in the kind, rational and caring manner that you do.

I am honored to know you and look at you as a shining example of how I would like to be.

Wishing you and your family a blessed season filled with love, light and joy and may your best day this year be your worst day in the New Year. May it bring forth a myriad of happiness, contentment and dreams come true.

Love ya buddy!
 
I have been silent as long as I can!

Osiris is a truly kind, funny, intelligent; and beautiful human being. But he is not black. I am black, I know what we sound like. :lmao: There is no way anybody that sounds as white as he does, (think Sean Cassidy circa 1976) could possibly be black. :tongue:

That said he is a fabulous daddy to children who apparently adore him even more than he adores them. :rolleyes: His one flaw seems to be that he gives them orange soda before dinner when their mom isn't around. :biggrin1:
