Hi

Last edited Sat Sep 29, 2018, 09:08 AM - Edit history (1)

I previously posted as ‘lamprey’ in DU2 and ‘denem’ in DU3. I stopped in 2016 when DU became a circular firing squad. It’s been a while. There are not many names left that I recognize. Anyway, I’ll let my posts do the talking. As Micheal Avenatti says “Let’s Go”

EDIT: I guess I left out the most important thing - I couldn’t stay on the sidelines as the GOP prepared to appoint a rapist to the Supreme Court.

I don't think you and I interacted in your earlier incarnations. I think I recognize your usernames, though.

Hope things will be better for you this time around.

I was not in the Lounge very often but we talked once in a while. I remember your kindness, good cheer and optimism.

I'm still mostly that way! I don't play in the Lounge much these days, but every now and then I stroll through, looking for god knows what!

I still try to be optimistic and kind........and I hope I mostly succeed.

but two young women didn’t give up when they saw Flake in an elevator. Who knows, they may have changed the course of history.

A little trivia - Let’s Dance was written for David’s Security Gal “If you say run, I’ll run with you, & If you say hide we’ll hide”

I was actually thinking more about the Wizard of Oz - there’s no place like home.

He recorded a video to be released a year after his death. The title? No plan ...

Came back to find out a lot of posters are gone. Either flagged for review or just left.

Once upon a time after sex threads were banned in the Lounge, DU had a forum called Meta that was better than GD, better than sex if animus floated your boat. We danced on graves till the sun came up. Those were the days. Not. Too many pizzas.
