Mix? Heck, I'm taking the whole margarita!

Happy Australia Day, Wysi! *smooch*

[neophyte]

Ok. This has gone on long enough. My email address for Dave D is apparently defunct. I hate to do it, but I WILL invade his blog if I have to.

Do you hear that Dave D?

[¿wysiwyg? (MBE-LP)]

Looks to me like he's on an extended holiday.

But that's ok, because now I have a better chance to be LAST!

[cyn]

i've rounded up a troop of troopers to accompany Neo on her search. where is our last leader!? it's been nearly a month! (how's the `stache n patch coming along, cutie?)

[neophyte mbe lp]

Stache n patch are wearing well, Cyn. A little toooo well. I'm plotting revenge. *cackles with Glee(TM thingy)*

[¿wysiwyg? (MBE-LP)]

I thought you were supposed to rub your hands with glee, not cackle with it.

But that was perhaps LAST year's trend....

[neophyte]

I had it on my hands, but KDF made me wash it off; too sticky.

That's the LAST time try rubbing my hands without it, though.

[cyn]

hey! you got some of that glee on me! hope it lasts a long time;)

[Dave D (MBE LP)]

At LAST I'm back - before I was Dave D. the Grey now I am Dave D. the White - you will have to learn to deal with it.

[neophyte mbe lp]

Look, Dave D. the White, Cyn is Gleeful(TM thingy) that you've come back!

You're a sight for sore eyes. But you're not LAST!

*grins*

[Dave D (MBE LP)]

Neo - you might be first but you will never be LAST in my book;-) Thanks for the e-mail reminder.

¿wysiwyg? - Not sure if you follow such things, but an Aussie of note is blogging on my SWJ site. See if you can figure that one out????

[neophyte]

See how much we missed you, Dave? We let you be LAST for almost three whole days!

But enough of that mollycoddling. I'm the LAST man standing now.

Ok, so I'm a woman and I'm sitting. But the principle remains. I'm LAST!

[cyn (mbe lp)]

maybe;)

[¿wysiwyg? (MBE-LP)]

...and then again maybe not LAST!

DD, I checked out the SWJ and didn't see anyone I recognised, but then I lead a sheltered life and I have a terrible memory for names, which will forever hold me from making the real bucks as a technology salesman.

But it doesn't surprise me that Australians have an interest in this area. We have of course been involved in a number of small conflicts in recent years, as well as in providing police to pacific island nations to help goernments there stabalise themselves.

[¿wysiwyg? (MBE-LP)]

Yay! LAST for a whole WEEK, and counting!

[¿wysiwyg? (MBE-LP)]

LAST for 8 days, and counting....

[neophyte]

Pshaw! I posted here yesterday wishing everybody a Happy Valentine's Day. But the blog (not The Blog) ate my post.

I was just thinking about that cute Evad guy who appeared for a little while when Dave D was absent. I would have liked to give him a Valentine.

[¿wysiwyg? (MBE-LP)]

Sure neo, if you say so. But the rule here is "No postee, no LASTee".

[kingw MBE LP OBDE]

Too true wysiwyg. But that would mean you are not Last. Glad to see everyone amusing themselves.

[cyn (mbe lp)]

oh, hey kingw! .. it's been nearly 2 weeks since i last posted.

belated Happy Valentine's Day, Y'all!

(neo, i could swear i posted on V's day too!)

[neophyte]

*pounces on KingW and smooches him soundly*

How do you kiss someone soundly, you ask? Like this!

[¿wysiwyg? (MBE-LP)]

Hey, King, que passa since we LAST heard from you?

[¿wysiwyg? (MBE-LP)]

...and...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY EL!!

May it not be your LAST!

[Crash]

last.

[¿wysiwyg? (MBE-LP)]

LAST Crash? When was the first one? When is the next one? Are we doomed to crash?

How areya anyway Crash? Long time no blog. For me anyway. And thanyou again for the gmail invite, I'm LOVING it.

[¿wysiwyg? (MBE-LP)]

Actually, on reflection, I should have pointed out that when I said LAST Crash, I meant to imply that they broke the mold when they made her. She's not just the LAST Crash, she's the ONLY Crash.

[¿wysiwyg? (MBE-LP)]

*has been LAST for seven days*

...and LOVING it!

[cyn (mbe lp)]

*flips light switch on*

helloo ooo ooo?

*flips switch off*

*heads for pub n a last brewsky*

[Dave D (MBE LP)]

¿wysiwyg? - Australian Broadcasting Corporation - Background Briefing with Stan Correy - 19 April. Listen up or be LAST...

[neophyte mbe lp]

A month?! It has been a full month since I've been LAST? And yet I lived to tell the tale. Of course, when I look back, my LAST act before leaving was to smooch KingW. There are worse ways to go! ;)

[¿wysiwyg? (MBE-LP)]

DD, I'll be there....hang on a sec, if I DON"T listen I'll be LAST? That could provide just the shortcut I need in this competition!

So, Neo, are saying that you and KingW have been off smooching for a whole month? Still, that sounds better than the state Cyn must be in by now - she's been off drinking for over two weeks now.

As for me, blogs have been banned at work now, so I can't scamper in here quite as easily as I used to.

But of course that doesn't stop me being LAST.

[neophyte mbe lp]

No, but this does.

Neener.

LAST!

[Dave D (MBE LP)]

Just a simple LAST.

[Jeff Meyerson]

not

[bbescuela]

It's been almost three years since I was LAST.

[BigD®]

Jeeze, I have not been here for a long time and I am LAST.

[bbescuela]

That didn't LAST.

[Susan]

This will not, by any means, be the last time I am here...

I do have to catch up, after all.

And from way way way ^ up there, Omar could not be spam...Omar seemed to know who I was.

Whoever Omar might happen to be.

*gursts around a bit*

[Dave D (MBE LP)]

Posers, all of you - I am the Alpha and the Omega - the First and the LAST. Bow before me now for forgiveness and valuable door prizes that make the perfect gift for any occasion.

[neophyte]

Door prizes? We get door prizes?! Nobody told me about door prizes.

*thinks long and hard about her broken screen door* Hmmm. How 'bout if I just curtsy a li'l bit?

*gursts with Susan, not for the LAST time*

[Leetie]

g- g- gosh! Birthday wishes? *wipes a tear*

Thank you, and thank you.

Been gone for so long
And 'cuz I love you so much
This haiku's for you

*smooch*
*gurst*
*last*

[bbescuela]

Leets, that's a bLAST!

[bbescuela]

Leets, that's a bLAST!

[¿wysiwyg? (MBE-LP)]

I feel like I just got side-swiped by a MOAT.

But in a good way.

Leets returns to us,
Gursting and LASTing once more,
as does our Susan....

...and others whose names were too hard to fit into the Haiku...

[Susan mbe-lp]

Hey!

My curser has the little booger on it...but only here, for somereason it outLASTs any attempts to wipe it off...

Or maybe it's a side veiw of a rampart. Hard to say.

*squints at it*

Can't tell.

I wonder if I was ever the LAST one here?

Well, I will be now...

For a little while at LeAST.

[kingw MBE LP OBDE]

Neo I could use one Last smooch

[neophyte mbe lp]

That's the LAST time you'll have to ask me, KingW!! Whoo-hoo!! But let's not make it the LAST, shall we?

*puckers up*

[neophyte mbe lp]

Hmm. My pucker is pooped. Did you know your lips'll cramp if you hold a pucker for days without receiving a smooch? Seems KingW's gone off and left my lips in the lurch.
*goes hunting for long LASTing lip relief*

[kingw MBE LP OBDE]

Story of my life, a smooch at Last rears its lovely head and I am not there. I won't let it get me down. No way smooches for everyone, but one Last special one for Neo

[Dave D (MBE LP)]

Smooches? LASTes?

Fill in the blanks - winning entry gets a lovely LAST Thread Panama Hat and a whistle. I'm the judge, hehhehheh...

Ok, its not much, but its a start. I'm determined to win the hat.

[neophyte mbe lp]

Tastefully, or tastily? ;)

All I want is the whistle. I'm assuming it's a wolf whistle, delivered from the lips of Dave D himself. I'm going to find a way to claim it.

[neophyte mbe lp]

Lips
Absolutely
Smooch
Teasingly

[neophyte mbe lp]

Hmm. I tried and tried to amend that LAST post, but for some reason the blog wouldn't let me post again LAST night. That SHOULD have said:

Lips
Aflame
Smooch
Teasingly

Shows a little more of the passion involved in a really delightful smooch. ;)

[Dave D (MBE LP)]

Lascivious

Adulation

Taint Mieux? Does that mean it 'taint me, or it 'taint you? Or else there's a kitten 'round here somewhere.

*smooches Dave D and runs away*

[OtheU(manity) MBE LP]

Wowser!

It's been a really long time since I wuz last here ... been kinda busy ... I'll try to do better ... after I retire ...

[Alfred]

last thing first, I like pi.

[Alfred]

last thing first, I like pi.

[Alfred]

last thing first, I like pi.

[Adonis]

Yeah, me too UO. In fact, the LAST time I was here I made El really mad by impersonating Dave D. Painful memories for sure. Oh well, now I'm back and hopefully much less infuriating this time.

[daisymae]

I haven't been here in awhile:

Lads

[neophyte]

Quick, somebody get Alfred three slices of pi!

*staggers in from the pub*

wow! lasters galore! *waves Hi!*

and belated Happy Easter, y'all!

(oo,i just realized that those of us who Dave D made honorary lasters on his last birthday, have now been lasting here for a year.. *w00t!*)

[neophyte]

Cyn, enter the LASmoochT contest! 'Course it won't do you any good as I'm determined to win. I'm trying to figure out how to bribe the judge.

[neophyte]

*quietly comes in a hugs everyone VERY VERY tightly*

*VERY tightly*

[¿wysiwyg? (MBE-LP)]

Yes, scary times over there. Not dissimilar to the Port Arthur massacre over here 10 odd years ago.

But we can't allow that to be the LAST thought on this thread, so I will return us to the competition with this thought:

[neophyte mbe lp]

Hmm. My calendar tells me that today is Dave D's birthday! 51??

Happy Happy Birthday, Dave D! May the next year be full of happiness, peace, laughter, friends, family, and fun!

*SMOOCH*

[Alfred]

Yes, happy birthday to the not last man

[¿wysiwyg? (MBE-LP)]

51 eh? But not the LAST birthday we hope!

Happy birthday, Dave D!

I even have birthday cake today, it's a co-workers birthday today.

[KDF, mbe lp]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DAVE D!

Seems to me that LAST year, I earned my "muh-belp" designation just by posting here on this special day.

Ah, memories. Was that really a whole year ago? Seems more like LAST week.

Many more! Hope the celebration LASTS!

[Meanie the Blue, mbe lp, or something like that, I can't remember as I get older, you know]

May the birthday celebrations last as long as you can stand them, Mr. Dave D!

[southerngirl, who's not a mbe lp, or anything at all]

can i earn my "muh-belp" designation if i tell ya "happy birthday", dave?

Happy Birthday, Dave!

[OtheU(manity) (MBE-LP)]

Gawsh! The last time I wuz here wuz so long ago ... NEway, it's good that friends can gather for special occasions ... such as B-Day celebrations ... Happy Day, fellah!

[jamester]

Maybe I'll be the last Moatie today to wish you a very happy birthday?

[Dave D (MBE LP)]

Thanks guys - much appreciated!

Neo - the LAST thing I want to do is ride a big giraffe - thanks for the e-card...

You guys are LASTING friends!!!

Dave D. THE ORIGINAL MBE LP AND ALL AROUND MUCKER-UPPER

[Dave D (MBE LP)]

Same as LAST year - all who post here on the 9th of May earn the much honored, ignored and otherwise fair-to-middling resume item - MBE LP.

[¿wysiwyg? (MBE-LP)]

Lucky

Smooch

...I'm starting to get desperate here....

[Dave D (MBE LP)]

What is the record for comments on the blog?

[neophyte]

We were past 5,000 on one thread once, I believe. But then came the Time of the Great Banning, when many bloggers and their comments were stripped. And not in a good way. We still grieve.

[jamester]

Neo, 5,000 was achieved on the very first MOAT, if I am not mistaken...

[¿wysiwyg? (MBE-LP)]

So, at 4,400 posts, we have about 600-odd more to go to equal the record, which, at about a post a day on average, means we have to LAST a couple more years at this.

I'm game.

BTW DD, I finally got around to listening to the Background Briefing you referred me to. Verrry interesting. I remain amazed at the uses to which the Internet can be put, and it sounds like you've gotten something going there.
