How about AJ, Jenn!, Pookie?, JohnR!, Scandal, Amby, Madame Cleo, Rob and Mel.....he was last here as The_Dude.

 

 I kind of miss Paul (Paul and Vanessa). It's such a rare thing to come across someone who is wrong about almost everything. You almost have to appreciate it.  

 

 AJ has been on and off a few times with different names. I always wondered about Pookie, because he disappeared in the middle of a discussion and we never saw him again.

Who was the guy that did the K-1 with the Ukranian girl that promptly left him to work in a strip club?  That was a fun story.

As I recall he just kept thinking all would work out.

Someone stole my dictionary. Now I am at a loss for words.

Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day.  Deport him and you never have to feed him again.

I started out with nothing, and I still have most of it.

I went bald but I kept my comb.  I just couldn't part with it.

My name is not Richard Edward but my friends still call me DickEd

I fired myself from cleaning the house. I didn't like my attitude and I got caught drinking on the job.

My kid has A.D.D... and a couple of F's

Carrots improve your vision.  Alcohol doubles it.

A dung beetle walks into a bar and asks " Is this stool taken?"

Breaking news.  They're not making yardsticks any longer.

Hemorrhoids?  Shouldn't they be called Assteroids?

Steven, *Len*, Duncan, Nagi, natty, the one and only Eric, Smoke. It seems the list is endless. Oh, and almaty, dear old brother Dean. And Darnell. And Mrs. Cat. 

 

 

  Darnell comes on once or twice a year, makes a bunch of posts in threads that are ~6 months old and then leaves again.

Yes, Darren and Gretchen. Quite sad. I believe Gretchen had just given birth to her second child when Darren had a heart attack.

I have just passed on to Rob that he was remembered. Rob and I are still real life best friends, going on 11 years. I'm his know-it-all older sister and he's my pain in the rear little brother. 

 

I also chat with Trompe Le Monde just about every day, same with mox, both of whom are also IRL friends. I feel like I must be eligible for some sort of VJ award: I have gone on vacation with multiple VJers (including a former mod!), shared a post-divorce apartment with one, and worked with another. And drunk with at least 20 of them.

  I only know Marvin and Janelle. Who were the other ones?

Pedroh and Ms. Squirrel. Still together last time I checked. And I regret not taking Marvin up on that invite to Hawaii to go to the wedding.

 

So great to see so many old names in here. I also share many fine memories of the beaches of Ankara, but my favorite "ALRIGHTY THEN" Gary anecdote was of the time he sort of bragged about seeing his sister without her bikini top on. Good times, good times. I can't believe we've gotten this far without mentioning "I'm just a misunderstood racist" Boo-Yah.

  It's hard to do, but eventually we must come to accept that there's more to life than Gary.

Are you sure?

 

Of course if I were married to a woman who was able to make an entire meal out of a potato, it would make me a figure of quite some envy as well.

 

Please don't get me started on the heel condoms.

  Pedroh - wow, now I feel old. I haven't seen that name for a long time.

I feel sometimes like the central repository of Garyisms. Don't forget that he met her quite by accident in Prague when he had to help her with her bags. Also that she glides over cobblestones in her heels that go click-click-click.

 

My top memory of Kip was when he told me how he would treat a lady on a classy night out. It involved a pickup truck, a bottle of Freixenet, and footprints on the inside of the windshield. Oh, that and the homophobia, that too.

Alive and well and living with Ms. Squirrel in London. They have gorgeous cats and make delicious-looking food.

    I could never decide if Gary's posts were memorable, or if it was just that he posted the same few things over and over. Probably a little of both though. Kips were just so crazy that you knew he couldn't be making it up. Half of his posts would just get deleted nowadays. 

 

  It's nice to hear so many people are doing well. I never really knew what happened to most people after they stopped posting, except for the updates like this. I do understand why they no longer post though.

She had the coolest signature cartoon ever.  Impermissible today, however.

Pedroh

My two memories of him are that he was a VJ member for 8 years 1 day, and he never updated his naturalization status from pending to complete.

06-04-2007 = TSC stamps postal return-receipt for I-129f.

06-11-2007 = NOA1 date (unknown to me).

07-20-2007 = Phoned Immigration Officer; got WAC#; where's NOA1?

09-25-2007 = Touch (first-ever).

09-28-2007 = NOA1, 23 days after their 45-day promise to send it (grrrr).

10-20 & 11-14-2007 = Phoned ImmOffs; "still pending."

12-11-2007 = 180 days; file is "between workstations, may be early Jan."; touches 12/11 & 12/12.

12-18-2007 = Call; file is with Division 9 ofcr. (bckgrnd check); e-prompt to shake it; touch.

12-19-2007 = NOA2 by e-mail & web, dated 12-18-07 (187 days; 201 per VJ); in mail 12/24/07.

01-09-2008 = File from USCIS to NVC, 1-4-08; NVC creates file, 1/15/08; to consulate 1/16/08.

01-23-2008 = Consulate gets file; outdated Packet 4 mailed to fiancee 1/27/08; rec'd 3/3/08.

04-29-2008 = Fiancee's 4-min. consular interview, 8:30 a.m.; much evidence brought but not allowed to be presented (consul: "More proof! Second interview! Bring your fiance!").

05-05-2008 = Infuriating $12 call to non-English-speaking consulate appointment-setter.

05-06-2008 = Better $12 call to English-speaker; "joint" interview date 6/30/08 (my selection).

06-30-2008 = Stokes Interrogations w/Ecuadorian (not USC); "wait 2 weeks; we'll mail her."

07-2008 = Daily calls to DOS: "currently processing"; 8/05 = Phoned consulate, got Section Chief; wrote him.

08-07-08 = E-mail from consulate, promising to issue visa "as soon as we get her passport" (on 8/12, per DHL).

08-27-08 = Phoned consulate (they "couldn't find" our file); visa DHL'd 8/28; in hand 9/1; through POE on 10/9 with NO hassles(!).
