Its like he never really used to read here. Now that he has to because he took over full time moderation, he has been sucked into its goodness and cant leave.

I think Burgundy (http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/showthreaded.php?Cat=&Number=3100697&page=&view=&s b=5&o=&vc=1) is the one most qualified to speak about my posts here.

Actually, I have recently discovered what fun it is to participate, and there are a number of people I would like to thank for this. I'll wait for a slow day.

How it came to be that I joined the fray

In chronological order:
B Dids
The crazy, prolific jesus spammer
Mike Haven
The whole gang of user mods that came soon after
Wacki
Dynasty
Otis the marsupial
Ed Miller
Mason Malmuth
[Censored]
Commodus
and finally the lot of you, for whatever bizarre reasons, who have encouraged me to post more.

I think you need to reference the night you banned KaneKungFu. Damn that was funny.

This side of you we haven't seen yet - it is good.

Kuddos to Patrick for pointing out the avatar - I didn't even notice it.

The avatar is Ralphus from Bloodsucking Freaks. It is a veritable tragedy that nobody here seems to have seen this movie.

Nobody is trying nearly hard enough to bring Commodus out of the woodwork.

We should have graciously welcomed Indiana back so he could self-implode again and bring him out...

Welcome to the show. We're glad to have you aboard.

Now if we could just get Pops to do the same... /images/graemlins/ooo.gif

You can find him at the forum next door, "Science, Math, and Philosophy." His real absence is being noted in the strategy forums, I'm afraid.

I noticed. Do you think he'll eventually get bored with the Trainwreck and spend more time back in the strategy forums?

I just figure he could use a break from handing out C-notes to hear people debate the existence of God, is all.

Give us the real scoop: is Einstein descending into madness? /images/graemlins/frown.gif

If so, can you arrange periods of lucidity long enough for him to finish "Theory & Practice of NL Poker?"

Everything's fine. Book is being worked upon.

If somebody wants to arrange it, we can have a monthly contest, and the winner gets to ask three questions which David will be forced to satisfactorily answer, presumably about poker, but perhaps other things. I could probably get him to agree to this, if there's enough demand.

This would be hilarious in 00T. I wonder what his reponse would be to a question about Taco Bell, poopers or rap music?

alright. He just agreed. Now we need the contest ideas. I couldn't even think of a good contest for Dynasty's color change operations, so it's up to you guys.
