2k of those have probably been in the last 6 months

But you? Super Lurker? Mega Lurker? Your pick.

I haven't talked to LinuxBoy in forever, he was a cool guy though.

Also WombatWoman on Jeopardy? I guess I need to brush up on my ATOT history but I thought she was a very ill woman?

The only thing really old here is the recurring absurdity of some comments about her.:brokenheart:

Well, I for one was of the mindset that she was of failing health and that the reason she didn't post here anymore was because of that. When my thoughts turned to her I always did so with a level of sadness and with the thought that I hoped she was doing better. I guess I can do so now without being so melancholy.

She went in for minor surgery and woke up being called wonder woman or something because they didn't expect her to survive the complications. Last time I talked to her, she basically said she was on her death bed living an absolutely miserable life.

If she was on Jeopardy in November, I'm glad to see that she's obviously doing better.

Yeah it's some kind of miracle as I too was under the impression that her time among the living was short and that was at least 5 years ago. Add to that her close relationship to Flossy and her demise was almost a certainty.

Pretty confident you'd fail like you have at everything else you've attempted in your life.

If that happened it would obviously be a conspiracy on the part of the evil corporate giants that own the Jeopardy franchise and Alex Trebeck.

Wow. I haven't seen her since she posted on my forums a few years back. I wish someone had a clip of it.

thats all i seem to remember was that she had a terminal issue, but was very enlightning and entertaining. she was almost to close to dennilfloss, which made us wonder for the longest if we were gonna get nowheremom'd again.
she was always ready to spar, but gee, i hadn't heard from her in long time.
but i really did think that she was very sick, and that was a good 4-5 years ago.
guess she got better.

my favorite was the pic of her desk that had the sex toy on it. oops.
