[LostinVA]

1. Unfortunately, DU is now missing one of those members

On the plus side, I'm marrying her.

[Clintmax]

3. Hello, Lost!

Who's missing?

[LostinVA]

6. Haruka

[Clintmax]

12. Haruka.

I didn't know she wasn't part of DU anymore. But congrats on getting married!

[LostinVA]

14. Thank you!

She's doing really well. We've been super busy with planning everything and making the move up to NJ.

How are you?

[Clintmax]

16. I'm swell!

Staying busy except when I'm not. :rofl:

[lizziegrace]

2. Clintmax!!

:hug:


How are you?

[Clintmax]

5. Hello, Lizzie!

:hug:
I'm doing just fine! Working a lot. Haven't been around much, but thought I'd check in tonight! You doing OK?

[lizziegrace]

11. Doing okay!

:hug:

[Clintmax]

13. That's good to hear!

You see anyone else from the old crew much anymore?

[CaliforniaPeggy]

4. My dear Clintmax!

Even though it was exceedingly rare that I showed up in that thread, I sure do remember seeing it!

Being on the Left Coast, and a late riser at that, I just never got here in time to really participate...

I know a lot of people miss it...

It has been awhile, sweetie...

How've you been?

:loveya:

:hug:

[Clintmax]

8. My Dear Miss Peggy!

I've been doing fine! :loveya: I hope you're doing good too! Last I saw...you were a mod. No longer, huh?

[CaliforniaPeggy]

19. No, no more modding for me...

I am good...

Writing poetry...

And taking pictures!

Having fun here.........

I talk to Khashka, WCGreen, and KitchenWitch on a regular basis, and they are all doing well...

I hope we'll see more of you...



:pals:

[Clintmax]

23. What about MissHoneyChurch?

Or Airmen's Mom? Or Tjwmason? Have you talked with or seen any of them recently?

[CaliforniaPeggy]

34. MissHoneyChurch is still around from time to time...

TJWMason is rarely around...

Airmen's Mom has left, I think...

And that's a shame...

The three I listed in my post, I talk to on the phone with!

It is very cool...

I only post with the others...

[Clintmax]

45. I'm sorry to hear about Airmen's Mom.

She's a great lady! I got to meet her when she came through here on her way to Tennessee! MissHoneyChurch spent a couple of days with Greekspeak and I here at our apartment and it was a fine time!

[Fox Mulder]

7. I remember.

:)

[Clintmax]

9. FOX!

How the hells are ya? :hi:

[Fox Mulder]

10. Busy.

Working and moving. You know how it goes.

How about you? I haven't seen you in a long time!

[Clintmax]

15. Yeah, I know...

It's been a while. I'm fine...working a lot. Trying to stay afloat. Missing the crew!

[SeattleGirl]

17. CLINT!!!!!!!!

Wow!!!! How wonderful to see you!!!! :bounce: :bounce:

[Clintmax]

20. MISS SEATTLE!

:hi::hug::bounce:
It's wonderful to see you too, my dear! Remember when you took over the crew for me for a week while I was on vacation?

How are you doing? :loveya:

[SeattleGirl]

28. I absolutely remember when I was "Temporary Captain" of the crew.

I'm doing pretty well. I hope you are too! :loveya:

[Clintmax]

33. Yes, I am!

Greekspeak and I are fine. I've been working a lot and now we're getting ready for the holidays again! We're not putting merchandise out or anything, just getting the plans set.

[texanwitch]

18. Hello Clintmax

Has it been a year.

My sleeping hours are changed around since then.

Where have you been.:hi: :hug: :grouphug:

[Clintmax]

21. Hello, Texan!

:hi:
Yep. A year. I can't hardly believe it! My sleeping has changed all around a couple of times since then too. I've been working a lot.

[texanwitch]

31. I started working out of the house, then my mother moved in for a few months, and now my father

is staying until the fall.

I have added new pets and a new housemate, I have been busy.

[Clintmax]

37. Yeah, sounds like it!

Wow...a houseful, huh?

[texanwitch]

40. Now I am working on the second floor to get it finished enough to move in.

I get about 5 or 6 hours of sleep a day now.

How's things with you.

[Clintmax]

Everything is good!

I'm not such an early riser anymore, although I do get up at 5 every once in a while. I've been thinking about getting the whole thing started again...you think it'd be worth it?

[texanwitch]

44. Sure, maybe not everyday.

How about a night crew, on the weekends.

I would enjoy that.

[Clintmax]

46. Hmmm...interesting idea.

I've never thought about a night crew!

[texanwitch]

47. Most of the gang is here on the weekends.

I look forward to the weekend nights and early mornings now, it is the only time I have call my own anymore.

[Clintmax]

48. YAY! Well then I need to sneak in on the weekend and

surprise everyone, huh?

[texanwitch]

50. Yes, yes ,yes.

Weekend nights and early mornings are fun here.

The Lounge has saved my mind this past year, I come here to escape everything for awhile.

[Clintmax]

52. I did too, that's why I started the crew.

We got HUGE, you know! It was a lot of fun!

[texanwitch]

53. Sure did.

How many names are on that list?

We have a good group here.

I visited a lot of boards before the Lounge, but never really felt at home.

I think we have the best people here on the internet.

[MrScorpio]

22. And Me

Don't forget me

[Clintmax]

25. Well, hello, Mr. Scorpio!

:hi:
Long time no see Mister!

[MrScorpio]

36. I'm back

Showing the love

[Guava Jelly]

24. I joined and about a week later the thread stopped

I thought it was my breath :silly:
It would be so cool to have them return..:D

[Clintmax]

26. Hi, GoPsUx!

:rofl:
No, it wasn't you. At the time, I was under tremendous pressure at work and I just couldn't keep up the hours. As you can see...you're still in the crew listing and I haven't forgotten about you!

[Guava Jelly]

29. Cool!

Speaking of early morning..It's my bedtime.

It's so very nice to see you!!!
:D

[Clintmax]

38. It's getting close to mine too.

It's so good to see you too! Keep an eye out. I just might get the whole thing re-started again!

[hfojvt]

27. I should be on that list

many mornings I saw that post as a reminder that 'sheesh I need to get to bed'.

I mean Heidi and Buffy used to be nighthawks too.

[Clintmax]

30. Heya, hfojvt!

Yes, I started the Crew just as the nighthawks were signing off for the night! Heidi is a darling and Miss Buffy is wonderful too!

[KitchenWitch]

32. OMG, I have missed you!

:hug:

[Clintmax]

35. MISS KITCHEN!

:bounce:
Damn, it's good to see you! :hug::hug:

[KitchenWitch]

39. My hours have changed now too!

I am now living in overly sunny California, I live about 35 miles from CaliforniaPeggy and we get together occasionally. I am a late riser for now, until my daughter starts back to school.

:)

[Clintmax]

41. Then there's a MAJOR time difference between us!

I still live in Sunny (and hot) Florida, so it's coming up on 10:30pm here. Before, I started the crew thread at 5am. That's 1am there!

[KitchenWitch]

42. Actually it is 2AM (we are three hours different)

:)

I remember. I had much insomnia back then (I still have it but not as badly).

[Clintmax]

43. 3 hours? I thought it was 4.

LOL...silly me. :rofl: I'm glad the insomnia isn't as bad as it was!

[Wetzelbill]

49. It's been that long?

Doesn't seem like it.

So how've you been? :)

[Clintmax]

51. Hello, Bill!

Yeah, can you believe it? A year. I'm doing fine. Tired as hells now and I'm going to bed in a few. You doing OK?

[Wetzelbill]

55. Oh not bad

things are going ok, I guess. :)

[Starbucks Anarchist]

54. Hey, Clintmax!

:hi:

[Heidi]

56. I've missed you!!!!!!

:hug: :hug: :hug:

[fizzgig]

57. hey hey clintmax!

i was a newcomer to the group, but it was great company for this insomniac :D

[ZombieNixon]

58. Heh...I did it about twice.

It's so late now, it's early. :P

[billyskank]

59. Clintmax!!!!!

:hug:


:hi:


:loveya:

[tjwmason]

60. Good morning my dear fellow.

My how things change...

The thread used to appear at about 11 each morning, just when I'd be getting fed up with work...the perfect time to stop working and start posting.

I've changed jobs now, and don't have much time to post here as I'm doing real work which involves thinking and doing rather than dozing off using less than half my brain.

Good to hear that you're all well. :hug: :hi:

[bridgit]

61. Whoa, Whoa, Whoa...hold up right there Buck-A-Roo!!!

it that you, Clintmax, My Darlin?
cause you need to know how much you've been missed, my sweet :hi: :hi: :hi: :hug: :hug: :hug: :loveya:

[Scooter24]

64. Checking in...

just about to start packing my things and get to the airport for my flight home.

:hangover:

[Callalily]

65. Clint!

So happy to see you!

Hope all is well with you and yours.

Now I'll go back and read the rest of the post. Just wanted to jump in the minute I saw this.

Glad to hear you are doing well. We all miss you! Hope to see you again and soon! :hi:

[In_The_Wind]
