hiatus
I'm going to take some time off from pdd, I realized that I have been insulted here more than anywhere else in my life. I'm sure part of that is my fault, and I don't really feel any annimosity towards anyone in particular. As this is the contact point I have for most of you feel free to drop me an email if you need to get in touch. I will be back, in a month or two, or three. I'm just a little tired.
I'll try and show up some Wednesdays for Go, and I won't let the door hit my ass on the way out.
Have fun, enjoy the summer

I don't know what you're talking about, you slack-jawed, Taco John's-eating, cousin-loving, 1973 Winnebago-living, Pamida-shopping, Blatz-drinking, Huffy-riding poopface.
Just kidding about that Blatz part.

Other than Jon, who has insulted you?
I would like to thing that for the most part, PDD is pretty friendly.

HEY!
Edge is a nice guy!
Just for the record:
-He's not "slack-jawed," he just likes to think before he speaks.
-John's is better than Bell's.
-Depends on which cousin.
-1973 was a classic year for the Winnies.
-Pamida's got good deals.
-I'll take Blatz over Shlitz.
-Huffys RULE!
So there.

Why do you feel the need to tell us? Did you think we'd miss you? Pfft!

Hell, you guys are positively civil on this board. You should see what it's like where I live at tcpunk.com

Shit I been insulted too and took time off. Maybe the secret is not answering every idiot with too much time on his hands? Like just don't take the bait. Anyway, you do what you gotta do. Maybe the blogosphere is like drugs (lord knows I can't stop reading dailykos and atrios [sound of junkie slapping his vein]) and can promote burnout in a similar way. "My name's The Professor, and I'm a blogger..." "HI PROFESSOR"

Ditto to what Alison said.

Alison, Edge has been a PDD bloger from its inception, and yes, those of us who have also been here from the begining will miss him. I know I'm going to miss his efforts at making this place a community and his enlightening posts.

edge-haters can rest assured that, even in his absence from PDD, i will continue to urinate freely upon him.

Purple, I was just joking. Mock-insulting. Trying to be funny. Failing, it seems.

Sorry, alison; I'm a humorless hue.
