And whatever you do...DON'T picture anyone naked to try and relieve tension. I actually followed that advice and ended up laughing for almost 5 mins straight. :evilgrin:

98. I've met him in RL
but it was BK (before kids). I'm fairly sure it has gotten louder. We always get louder after kids. And we learn the power of the middle name.

173. Which middle name,
"damnit" or "Jesus Christ"? :evilgrin:

I think Cosby did a hilarious routine on that once. "Damnit, will you get in here?" "But, dad, I'm Jesus Christ!"

157. I would wish it so...what you say..because if you go back to where you were
and what you've become and realize that there are some of us with a DECADE OUT OF OUR LIVES...which is SMALL FOR YOU...but BIG FOR US...You WILL "Perhaps" UNDERSTAND what this site meant to us........Yet the TOMBSTONE LIVES...and the DEAD ARE GONE...and the GRAVES ARE THERE...BUT, SOME CARRY ON.

PEACE AND CONGRATS! :party: You deserve it..and YES...I DO UNDERSTAND...MOVING ON and how it HAS TO BE...but not good to leave so many "in the dust" to do that.

Peace and Regards and many Happies on the DU ...10th........It's been a long, hard slog...with many up's and down's.

It's gone on a bit...and who knows where it will END...for ALL OF US! FOR ALL OF US!

REGARDS! SO MUCH OF MY LIFE HERE with so MANY GOOD FOLKS that I passed time with ...some dead, some "under the stone," some still alive and kicking and working and others gone off to "parts unknown."

It IS what IT IS!

Not to be bitter or angry or even to shed tears or get nostalgic, too much.

It Is what It Is! And the TRI-UMVERATE of DU knows that BETTER THAN ANYONE!

We met Cenk in Madison, WI on Halloween dressed as Al & Peg. He didn't quite know what to make of us. If he remembers us fondly, tell him we're DU'ers. If he doesn't...well, nevah mind. :)

Have fun and Happy Anniversary!

Oh, the days of 2400 baud modems, or something like that... we opted for the 'faster' one. I think the slower one was 1200.

Weird thing, just last night I got notice that my monthly contribution had been canceled. I didn't cancel it but rather than try to figure out Paypal, I just immediately reinstated it. I'm wondering if anyone else had this happen to them? That's the reason I'm putting this on a public post.

161. See post above yours for video replay link
It wasn't long, but it was a pretty cool discussion of DU's origin, and it's evolution and success.

David gave a nice shout out to ALL the members of the DU community--and I think his use of the word 'community' was an especially nice touch, and an apt description of the site's membership.

The only ones disappointed were those who expected him to have a Barry White voice. :)

174. I agree it's worth it for DU folks to hear David
I think it was a pretty standard interview, worthwhile for anyone who hasn't heard David Allen before.

I think the best part was David acknowledging divisions here, even acknowledging that the "play nice" rules don't always work perfectly. Yet still emphasizing the sense of community here, and even briefly acknowledging the humor--something that DU has always valued.

David's description of DU as "community-driven" was spot-on.

I don't count myself as as among the "Legacy Folks" because I didn't lurk until '04 and didn't join until '05 (thanks to DU member kerrygoddess). I went without a computer for several years, but when I got back online, I had to come to DU. The news posts and the discussion here--and even the silly, often very clever humor, are invaluable, in so many ways.

Yes, David did great--even if he didn't sound like Barry White. :)

178. It was really interesting. Hubby (existentialist) and I have DU to
thank for bringing us together, and there are several other couples here who met through DU. Needless to say, that's just one of the many reasons we're glad DU was started!

183. Here
I was a DU member (not a mod or anything) for a couple of years or so before I was hired by Cenk to be the Director of New Media (moved from Chicago to Los Angeles in January 2009). A video announcement was posted at the time on DU and I updated my public profile back then. I don't try to hide it, but I also don't want to be obnoxious about it.

At any rate, I'm grateful to work on a show that I love.

175. I just saw the interview.
Very diplomatic I must say. :rofl:

From the bottom of my heart I do want to thank all three of you for being here for us through the dark days of the Bush administration and am looking forward to you being here for us in the next decade as well.

DU helped me get through all the depression from the coup of 2000. I don't post much anymore, but still come here almost every day.
