Oh my ... goodness. Is it real?

Malloy: glad to hear things are looking up. I had a family member go through the same thing and he's now in recovery, so I know it's a long road and a massive accomplishment. So, congratulations.

I was afraid I would have to create a Malloy sockpuppet to handle your share of the jokes!

*Stuffs the sockpuppet away hurriedly*

Welcome back, at this most opportune of times!

-Fred

HAHAHAHA .. a Malloy sock puppet.

Well at least your jokes are the funny ones. Mine are of the hit and miss variety. Mostly miss. But a true jokester keeps flinging the one-liner's through all the groans until one hits a guffaw. Thanks Fred, the Bat-mobile awaits. And just remember. I'm not Robin.

I'm Big Jim Slade.

Welcome back, Malloy! Good to hear things are going well.

Always brings a bit of extra warmth whenever one of us comes home, be it for a visit or a longer stay

FRANK! Hey buddy, good to see you. Your name was one of the ones that should have been listed with the people I remember! Thanks man, and yes barring internet getting shut off (Att never told me there was an installation fee of like 100 dollars. We'll see where this goes) I should be around a while. But you never know with this world. I have given some contact information out to some people so that if I'm ever being look for again, I'll be able to be contacted though.

Again, good to see ya!

I dare say that not one of us who were around when you were here before would dispute the fact that you left a big hole - a crater - in this board's personality when you left (whereas no one ever seems to notice when I drop out for extended periods ). I'm sorry to hear about your rough patch (and especially the curve ball), but I'm glad you've emerged, more confident than ever. Welcome back!

I would notice. If I were ... like here, and not gone to notice. Seriously. We, me and you signed up around the same time did we not? About a month apart with you beating me to the board. I'll always the remember the old I want to believe avatar you used to have. That's the one I always see when I see your name. God I hope that was you, and I'm not remembering that wrong.

But thanks Jerry.

Oddly enough, I also remember when I posted the video of Darth Vader being a jerk a looong time ago, it made you laugh so hard "you had tears" and that made me happy. Strange the things I remember. Again, I hope that was you. I'm pretty sure it was.

Haha...yep, that was me. And I remember that Vader video -- chuckling thinking about it right now.

No no! Not again...you'll just break my heart like last time (tears)

*pats him on the head* No, no I won't. I'm never leaving you ag ... oooh, piece of candy. *walks off*

Argh! Malloy, stop nibbling on me! No! NO! BAD Malloy! *Smacks with newspaper*
