not for even a second did I read that as anything more than "hey buddy, where've been?"

I mean, c'mon. ban :rolleyes: Boo!

Don't U think that when he didn't respond to a PM for a week and wasn't Posting that I didn't get a bit worried? So where did my thoughts run to..maybe something happened to him? So I checked and found....and....

Something had to bring Mr Nostatus out of the woods... Not only that but I knew that he would use the Mark Twain line about his death being greatly exaggerated..Which more than likely he relishes having been able to use...btw I already told him exactly that in a new PM.

So the real issue here is that you Boyz got a little scared and your feelings need some assuaging...to wit my being careful about what I wrote, so I even kept your sensibilities in mind and cma in the process . but never the less.. my mea culpa

Didn't ruffle my feathers...I actually thought you were concerned that he wasn't as politically active as he should have been.

We all have lives; physical, social, intellectual, spiritual...when someone is no longer with us the immediate assumption is that they have physically left us to be gone forever. Most folks think in the physical realm - you tend to think differently. That doesn't buy you a bye by the way...

Agree. I thought your post was clearly tongue-in-cheek and if you really thought something bad happened to Todd, you wouldn't be calling him Nostatus.

What does "tabs" signify, by the way? Kinda wondered about that.

On this Board I have recently said of myself in various Postings and Threads that:

1. I am a "pathetic loser."

2. "My mistake was..... "

3 "Am an incomprehensible fool"

4. "My failing is....."


Four times I have denounced myself.

Do you want the real reason or the story I like to tell?

Mother always used to tell me I am a Thoroughly Azz Backwards Son which she got tired of saying so she acronymed it to TABS.

Or Mother added an "S" to my initials as a nickname.

So which is the real reason?

Coyote finally got him eh?
You just can't spell them.

He escaped the coyote again it appears, pretty cagey for a bass player.

Ted will never tell

OK, that part made me LOL. So, you're saying tabs is an animal lover???

;)

I find that stuff very interesting. Because science.
