It appears a fair number of DUers are unaware of the Door Buzzard thread
WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU?
A lot of us have had fun with this, but it will soon be time to put this sucker to bed for a while. So catch it while you can...
Could my neighbors be in federal trouble?

Please capon posting updates. 
that pinboy means no harm with his thread tonight. Did you see all of the sheer wit in that thread he's linked to...all in wonderful fun from a tremendously kind, thoughtful, and funny guy.
Happy Everything to you, too, Nadin!
and that goes for all of us.
I, for one, appreciate it from both you and pinboy, always!
Especially among so much talent here.
To tell the truth, I never tried puns until after a few years at DU and being inspired by seeing the work of so many wits here to try my hand.
The secret I discovered (shhh!) is that ANYONE can do it and be good at it. All it takes is a little practice.
Another truth: The more, the merrier. If others don't jump in and post, punsters have no material to play off of. It's not a competition, it's a team effort.
At the same time, having said all that...
the pun KING at his finest and I almost missed it. (sorry, pinboy, I've been away, darling daughter finally had a baby and I am now an old toothless grammaw)
Happy Every Damn Thing to you and yours!
That is great!
You may be a grammaw now, but we still see you as that hot, young, sexy person you were and always are to us.
I shall now tear my place apart to find an adult beverage with which to toast you and your daughter and your granddaughter (like I have to look far, lol!).
And thankyou for your kind words.
and I'd start you a thread on the essence of being toothless over in the lounge (finally got up the nerve to get my teeth yanked last month, too) for you to have pun with, but I'm so miserable and sad that fucking Santa man didn't bring me my two front teeth back, that even I might get pissed off at you (not really, never!).
My man took a pic of me yesterday, full on laughing empty mouth, and if you ever saw that photo, you'd take back all the nice things you've said about how I used to be. Frightful, I tell ya.
Excuse me now while I pull my bottom lip up over my nose.
(they really are the most beautiful mama and babe, ever, so I thank you much for the congrats!) 
I lost half my jaw and teeth a long time ago, and more along the way. Two remaining teeth anchored my upper partial--until one of them broke off recently. Now I have to go back to the VA to see what they can do, but I don't have high hopes.
I'm sure you're getting your mouth fixed, as will I when I stop putting it off. I've gotten a bit gun-shy about more surgery. 
never dreaming that I'd be forced to diet after the fact. The teeth they gave me don't fit, can't eat with them in, can't even talk without gagging on them, so I had to puree everything I ate while I was down helping out my girl with her new little girl these last few weeks and keep real quiet (a feat unto itself).
It's an unsolvable dilemma, and I think I'm doomed to eat sweet potatoes, yogurt, gruel and mushy stuff for the rest of my days, unless we can come up with the money to remake these damned dentures. It took practically every penny we had just for the surgeon and my dentist keeps telling me that I have to "get used to them" which isn't happening, as I've tried to keep them in for almost two months, now.
See if the VA will spring for replacing your broken tooth with an implant; if my gums weren't so terribly receded, I could have gone that route, with a couple of fake ones to hold in a bridge or partial or whatever they're called, but c'est la vie.
And I'm still
We're gearing up for the War on Easter.
