keeping in mind the oldbie DUers who are gone
Not only those who've passed (I think Stephanie mentioned Olaf the White on the playahata thread this morning), but those who just aren't here much or at all any more. Thinking of sffreeways and ohgosh tonight. Hoping things are well with Forkboy. So many others...

1. I haven't been here for years and years...
But there are a few that used to post a lot that I haven't seen in ages. I almost never see Paddy or Cuban_Liberal anymore, and I'm kinda resentful because I'd always have fun salivating over their dinner menus. LDS Jock hasn't been around in forever, neither has HeyManThatsCool. Hope they're all doing well.

10. "All is change; all yields its place and goes." - Euripedes.
yes, good buddy you and sffreeways were the first evil duers i got to know.

my saving grace is that only the good die young, so i have a long life still ahead of me.



Should auld acquaintance be forgot,

And never brought to mind?

Should auld acquaintance be forgot,

And days of auld lang syne? And days of auld lang syne, my dear,

And days of auld lang syne.

Should auld acquaintance be forgot,

And days of auld lang syne?



We twa hae run aboot the braes

And pu'd the gowans fine.

We've wandered mony a weary foot,

Sin' auld lang syne.

Sin' auld lang syne, my dear,

Sin' auld lang syne,

We've wandered mony a weary foot,

Sin' auld ang syne.


We twa hae sported i' the burn,

From morning sun till dine,

But seas between us braid hae roared

Sin' auld lang syne.


Sin' auld lang syne, my dear,

Sin' auld lang syne.

But seas between us braid hae roared

Sin' auld lang syne.



And ther's a hand, my trusty friend,

And gie's a hand o' thine;

We'll tak' a cup o' kindness yet,

For auld lang syne.

For auld lang syne, my dear,

For auld lang syne,

We'll tak' a cup o' kindness yet,

For auld lang syne.



a cup of kindness to you, john and if your cup be full may it be again.

11. y'know, when I was writing the OP,
I damned Allen for bringing the Old Crew to mind - and yes, Auld Lang Syne came with them. :D

Long may you ride, Frank. I'm glad you came back, brother.

19. Me neither..
I knew in the time before he was tombed, he'd had a rough patch with a job loss.
