You'll have to make do with us. They all succumbed to angst. Ask Haskins.

I don't remember you. Did you have the same screen name?

Hi! I haven't been on much before now, but I'm glad to see you here!

I don't get it.

But I like England for what it's worth.

Now that's one way to make new friends and influence others.

Hi Rob!

People do come and go here. Some longtime members have gotten busy with projects and their personal lives. And we have a lot of new members who post regularly.

Anyways, it's nice to see you again.

Hi Rob. Sara is waiting for her son to pop out... otherwise, she would be glad to welcome you back!

Oh, yeah, welcome back. Plunge back in and you'll be popular again in no time!

Hey Rob,

Is the Northeast UK anywhere near Norfolk?

Cheers,

Hi, rr -- I remember you well, and I'm glad you're back! Will you help kick the limerick thread back into life again?

The old gang's still here, but I think many of them are sitting back a little at the moment. There have been a couple of contentious events -- brash personalities banned, rep-point and post-count melodramas, and the like.
The boards have seemed more shallow and look-at-me lately, but the warmth is still there. And some of the new folks are mighty fine additions.

It's always funny going back to a place you knew; change is unsettling, but no change is perhaps more so.

Hope you'll stick around and put in your two bob's worth!

Hey, Spooky, he's got the exchange rate right though. We're all approximately one millihaskins.

Which makes Mr Haskins a Megapoet.

Who'd argue?

I'd never argue with someone who is so profound as a poet, regardless of their outward appearances.

Hey Rob!!! Many of us are out for summer activities or other life changing reasons . But we're still here in spirit.

Cut to the chase...

Early last year, I had the chance (through illness) to be, more or less, a full time member of AW.

Now, when I visit, however sporadic, I don't get the same ... warmth as I used to, (has the membership changed so much?).

I made some good friends in the past and I'd love to hear from you again.

How are you all doing? Old friends feel free to post...

And after seeing that post, I PM'ed Sara with a "Hey, Rob-Rite--where is he these days, I always liked him!"

And then there's Jenna's list:

Good to see you again, sir!

Gee, that's not very nice. I would have said a million.

Rob! Good to see you, my friend. How are those magnificent buttocks?

Yeah. What she said.

Really, Rob.....(drums fingers on desktop)

You think I don't notice when you're gone....(thadadump, thadadump...) You think I don't notice when you come back...(tapittytappitytappity) Go check your rep points sugar. You need to refresh your memory.

(Sniffs and walks out) Hmph.

I knew she was going to say that. See, I deliberately stayed away from that reference in my post.

Sara, remember when we used to tease Rob about that? Ah, the good ole days.

She asks that question in public too. "Oh, Father McNulty, how are those magnificant buttocks of yours?" "Why, it's little Timmy! And how are YOUR magnificant buttocks!" "Hey, get your magnificant buttocks off the road, or learn how to drive!"

(Hey, Rob. I remember you. Whaddup?)

Hi, Rob! Good to see ya again

Sara asked me that question, too, only phrased differently. It was more like "Can I squeeze your scrumptious azz?"

I bet Rob-rite will feel right back at home now.
