Cue twinkly lights and wibbly screen effects type stuff. It's flashback time see?

Once upon ago, a long long time ago (well, about last August or something but my standards that's, like, years) in strange far off forum called ODCUT there was a fantastically handsome, suave, sophisticated, hyper-intelligent love muffin called QueenOfDiamonds (that's me. And a damn good description of myself too). Now the Queen was happily minding his own business (huh-yeah, as if) when he stumbling across a little thread called the LLB, and in time he became a member. Now the LLB had a lovely little headquarters and the Queen moved in. Only one day the Queen was feeling really really fed up and it was only September so he had christmas early and decorated the LLB Hall of Shame and created a huuuuuuuge Christmas tree for the Hallway and did a bit of temporal distortion and Lo!, it was Christmas. And all was good. And then next week we had Halloween. And I think we had Christmas again a week later but my memory is a little hazy on these points.

Also in the Queens repotoire (God how do you spell that) was lobo fan bateing and the Brads. The Brads are a whole troupe of dancing boys, dressed in very little as long as it's faaaaantastic. All v. hunky, infinite in number, and all called Brad (don't ask me why, these things just sort of developed over time). And the Queen was also very glittery, possesing as he did oddles of glamorousness and buckets of fairy dust. Only really the glitter was more a costume thing rather than a power. not his only costume mind, that would've been a tad... provocative.

Now I have to go get all you ungrates gifts. I work so hard at McDonalds 3000 to try to get ahead in life and now I have to go get everybody gifts for Christmas when it's the beginning of April. Life isn't fair. It comes along to kick me when I'm down and steal my VISA Platnium Plus card to boot (as opposed to reboot).

So I don't wanna get you gifts! No, none of you are going to get me anything. You're gonna look at my Tiffany napkin holders that I will have to Fed Ex in and say, "Sorry, Whining Wildly Boy. We forgot to get you anything." So forget you all! I'm going to get gifts for people who truly care about others. Yes, I'll give presents to Oprah, Sally Jessy, Jerry and all the other talk show hosts who really are concerned with the welfare of others, and are not out to use them for advertising reveunes.

I think I'm in a parallel universe. That's it. I've freakin' fell through a black hole or something. (Actually, I've been accused of being a black 'hole, but that's another matter entirely...).

I honestly expected this board to be just so much cyber-residue by now. Nobody would post here. I spent months talking to myself (and enjoying it, actually).

I disappear for a few months and return to find all this?

Wow.

No digital ashes to digital ashes for this board. Nosireee!

Just one little thing.

You guys are talking about me like I'm respectable, using words like "founder", "keeper of the faith".

While the sentiment is appreciated, you guys are ruining my reputation.

I'm a scoundrel. A vulgarian!

If this gets out, my girlfriend will think I've gone soft. She'll be wanting me to watch Titanic with her. Or the Joy Luck Club.

Truly, a fate worse than death...

Oh my God! I just realized! I just bought the Young Romance Millennium Edition.

It's getting to me... changing me....

...help.....

Finally, Engine Joe has come back to the Mesage Boards!!!

I'm to choked up to talk...*sniff*, Welcome Back Engine Joe, your long sought after dream of reviving this board has been accomplished. And yes, your reputation preceedes you.

I think I can speak for Sk8maven on this as well, after private conversation. Place us on indefinite leave or some such, if you insist, but we'd rather not be written into the posted scenarios.

If it floats your Net boat in other respects, by all means, keep it up. For me, I'll look to be actually "saying something" on the boards (to take gentle issue with one .sig).

I took less care with this aim of mine, on one topic, used someone else's words, and it got all bollixed up and was unintentionally insulting out of my not paying proper attention. So I'll be paying it out -there,- and no longer even a little here with LMBers.
