The Prussian Model ...

#41 I can't think of one Capital H, intrinsically Happy person I know well enough to make such an assessment about in that regard. I know one longtime Buddhist who is maybe content. It seems an exceedingly rare trait. Trump sure isn't a happy person by any discernible metric.

Oh, Welcome Back?? Thanks!

What's WB mean?

Remember that B flick Deathrow Game Show? It's weird how satire has become reality. I can't get behind capital punishment in general, and public executions in particular seem particularly problematic.

It's good to see Snoofy still in the mix. And Redial.

DBT2 - I accidentally found the Retort while Googling UFO stories. Gosh, that must've been 15 years ago, maybe longer.

54 Ha! I don't remember that guy. Sounds like a character.

Yes! JPW! Thank you! I'll look for him

Hmm ... I remember those names, but don't associate them with the guy I'm thinking of. This guy was often feuding with Boaz and Gracie. I believe he was a microbiologist, and he was very pro Covid vaccine during that particular nightmare.

Hey, LFT!
We're fixing to get clobbered by a tropical storm in our bit of the desert in the next 2-3 days. My Alabama are fixin' to get it something fierce tonight by that hurricane out that way.
How's your neighborhood?

BTW - That was his self-description on the Nooner years ago when we were talking about what celebrities we've been told we look like alas, my own experience is that I am most often told I look like Randy Quaid. Does anybody remember that fella's name - the scientist guy? I don't know why his name escaped me; he was always pretty active on the Nooner.

Ha ha! Yeah, I was incapacitated by "fumes" for a bit. I didn't come back itching for a fight. I can't even open the story on this thread because it's behind a paywall. I mostly enjoyed the old Nooner. Lots of fun people here, as I recollect. Who's left and under what names, I don't know. I never got clipped, and I've always been "Karabekian." Just came back for the social scene.
Politics is just bad ju-ju at this point. Everyone in "real life" moved far aways or died.

#38 ??

Clownshack! Are you still in the Greater Los Angeles Metropolitan Area?

I see Clownshack is still around - my cousin-in-law from the Welsh side of the family.

What about that biologist fella in Colorado? I can't remember his handle. The cantankerous guy who looks like Prince William with a better hairline?

Did "Boaz" get clipped?

Blue, Red, and Grey - The Who

Like in that Barbara Hershey movie? She's a hot tamale!

29 Yeah, I've been out of the mix for awhile. It's good to see many old, familiar scoundrels after all this time.
What alias does Tosser/Rigel use nowadays?

#27 The tone sounds familiar.

If that's you, Major, hola from SoCal!

#24 Ha!

Hey, Shrimptacodan, do you remember Thomas Eagleton?

Excuse the typo
