Greetings, Ya'll!

I must apologize for my recent lack of participation in the MOAB. There are times when one must pursue activities having to do with collecting pictures of dead presidents (plus non-presidents Hamilton and Franklin). Such activities leave one little time to devote to ruminant feces.

I am shocked and disheartened to hear of the passing of my once-beloved Bubba Bubba. I am glad that it appears that herit's end was sudden and painless. As for the former city of Seattle, Pike Street Market will be sorely missed, but if the destruction extended far enough outward from the city center to take a large chunk of Microsoft's holdings with it, I guess we'll call that an even trade.

I am pleased to hear that Bubba Bubba chose to name herit's hatchlings after yours truly. It sounds like little Ell is a chip off the old block. Though I've never actually eaten a Buick I did once pass a Toyota. If one of the little blighters would like to stop by for a visit, I have a couple of large diseased oak trees on my property that they are welcome to have for lunch. It'd save me from having to play Paul Bunyan.

BTW, this is post #1251 which just happens to be the month and year of my birth. If this thread makes it to 123,151, my birthdate, I've got dibs on it. Ya hear?
