ROFLMAO!
How politically correct of you not to say MOONIE.
Your list and characterization was GREAT! ... but
* jazzesq, Sommers, mtnlady, freeus, etc. should have been called "Classy Curudgeons"
* Slacker wasn't mentioned - he lurks and contributes
* gdichaz (Cha2) should have been "Mr. Wireless Data Sushi Style"
* FLSTF97 - no mention of FatBoy as in "Hog"
* Joel Yagoda - "Doc" once played to a 3 - be careful if on course with him
* ERICY - Are you spamming us with this?
* Aunt Nancy was honored - where is tribute to TekGirl
Don't mean to be picky. In fact, in tribute to you (and your alma mater) I would like to have all Curmudgeons join me in a song as we toast you:
From the tables down at Mory's,
To the place where Louie dwells,
To the dear old Temple Bar we love so well,
Sing the Whiffenpoof assembled,
With their glasses raised on high!
And the magic of their singing casts a spell.
Yes the magic of their singing,
Of the songs we love so well:
"Shall I Wasting" and "Mavourneen" and the rest!
We will serenade our Louie,
While life and voice shall last,
Then we'll pass and be forgotten with the rest.
We're poor little lambs
Who have lost our way,
Baa! Baa! Baa!
We're little, black sheep
Who have gone astray!
Baa! Baa! Baa!
Gentlemen, songsters, off on a spree,
Damned From Here to Eternity.
Lord! have mercy on such as we,
Baa! Baa! Baa!
*** The Whiffenpoof Song. Featured in the 1944 Air Force film "Winged Victory" Music by Tod B. Galloway and lyrics by Meade Minnigerode with George S. Pomeroy - James Jones used the song for the title of his novel From Here to Eternity - Until early seventies Mory's in New Haven was a "Gentlemans Club" ***
