The primitives are going amok this morning, with the Big Zero putting cuts in Social Security and Medicare on the table; wait until they find out he's going to have to put a lot more than this on the table.
Anyway.
Today marks a certain anniversary.
On July 7, 2005, multitudes of primitives said that the recently-late red round one would be in their hearts and minds forever; they'd never forget him, they'd remember him every day of their lives.
And so for the next four July 7ths, there was always a campfire on Skins's island remembering the late red round one.
But on the fifth anniversary, July 7, 2010, no one remembered.
And so decent and civilized people had to remember the late red round one themselves.
(It's true that many hours on, there appeared a brief campfire on Skins's island commemorating the late red round one, but that appeared long after the one here, and was obviously inspired by the one here.)
Well, here it is, the sixth anniversary, and the primitives aren't remembering the late red round one.
One wonders what's up with that.
A little anecdote, if one has the patience; in late July 2005, I finished an accounting project for a Roman Catholic mission in South Dakota. When they were ready to write me out a check, I stayed their hand.
I said to make the check out only for my claimed expenses, and to use the rest so as to have Masses for the repose of the Immortal Soul of the late red round one.
I said I supposed that would cover Masses into the next six or seven July 7ths.
No, I was told; it would cover them into perpetuity.
-
Coach, it is incredibly shameful of the people . . . well, individuals who claimed to remember said red round one, to forget him last year, and any other year, on the anniversary of his passing.
As for having Masses said for his soul . . . I must commend and salute you on this. I don't know if I would have had the forethought to have done that. I'll raise a glass of . . . well, Coke Zero is about the strongest stuff I drink now--to you.

I slightly modified your comment above, sir, because when one quotes franksolich, it invariably means acres and acres of blue.
Yeah, it's pathetic that decent and civilized people remember the late round red one, while the primitives forgot all about him.
-
DUmmies, for the most part, live in the void between right now and never. They can't help them self for not remembering the past.
Someone should market a bubble gum card for DUmmies.
-
I don't know Catholicism, being a very waspish sort, but I'm not sure how effective those masses in the wilds of the Dakotas will be. The andyscam's prime beneficiary went to his reward as an unrepentant sodomite.
Seems to me those annual memorial sacraments would be better spent beseeching the Lord on behalf of souls who didn't devote their entire mortal lives to the pursuit and enjoyment of a heinous mortal sin. But I'm not Catholic, so maybe it means perfect sense in the tenets of that religion.
I'd sooner pray for a gerbil's smooth passage over the Rainbow Bridge, but that's just me.
Now, DUmbasses will be afraid to mention the anniversary; to do so would be an admission of lurking here.

Actually, what it really is, is a contribution to the church to continue in its good works--in whatever area--nothing more than that. It just goes to feed the poor, clothe the naked, roof the homeless, heal the crippled, ameliorate the ill, and so on.
But we Catholics like to drive other people nuts, trying to figure us out.
And yes, here it is, 11:00 a.m. central time, 10:00 a.m. mountain time, and the primitives still haven't remembered Andy. :bawl:
-
Apparently "forever"'is a lot shorter than "24 business hours."
-
Well, here it is, almost 12:30 p.m. central time, 11:30 a.m. mountain time--it's probably a whole new day down over under in Australia, even--and the primitives haven't yet remembered Andy.
:banghead:
:bawl:
They have a weird sense of priority, the primitives, whining about something else today rather than remembering their immortal hero.
-
Well, well, here it is now, past 1:30 p.m. central time, 12:30 p.m. mountain time, and the primitives still aren't remembering Andy.
:banghead:
And to think five years ago, they insisted he was so memorable his birthday should be a national holiday, and his face carved on Mount Rushmore (really, but alas I never saved the links).
:thatsright:

Wow! You're as worked up over this as nadin when she spots a trend! Two of those stupid smiley things in one post?
I can understand the emotion. It looks like his life's work (sodomy and mail fraud) was all for naught.

Apparently.
I'm dumbfounded that the primitives forgot someone they promised they'd remember every single day for the rest of their lives.
-
Unlikely to happen at all, frank. The money that other people had to pay into SS and Medicare so that the primitives could one day get a monthly check and virtually cost-free medical care is on the line. Nothing trumps their confiscation of other people's money, and especially not some dead twinkie who hasn't done anything for them lately.

Do you suppose anybody still has that link to the "Andy died" campfire on Skins's island?
It was posted the evening of July 7, 2005, the latter half of that evening.
There was a lot of good stuff at that campfire, including the primitives' pledges to forever remember.
I have to go to the big city (2:00 p.m. central time), and so can't look for it right now. When I get back, if it's not already found, I'll go look for it myself.
Somebody's got to remember the late red round one.

The only thing I have now, so long after the fact, is this, not the one. I'm sure an archive search could locate it:

And, of course, lots of people saved Pitt's hilarious drunken rage, the "Oath Of The Bootheel Cat":

Oh my, I thought you were all talking about Ted Kennedy, "Mr. Tomato Head". Sorry, my mistake. ::)

The round red sodomite is a gift that never stops giving. Here's a hilarious obit from a hippie paper in Seattle. The Pitt quotes are especially touching:
http://www.seattleweekly.com/2005-07-13/news/a-fight-to-the-end/
I hope the DUmp snaps out of its hateful tantrums against the Kenyan today, long enough to entertain us with some zany Andyscam memorial threads.

The only one I have saved is in June 05 where he says he's getting better.
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=104&topic_id=3781446
I don't think it would be a good day to do a DU search. Skimmer probable is aware of this and has his tracers on the lookout for any Andy searches.

After I wrote that, I thought so too.
And so I'm deferring the search for a while, unless someone else here saved that link, in which case no search would be needed.

Wrote Will Pitt, in a post on Democratic Underground directed at Stephenson's accusers: "I am going to make you famous in all the worst kinds of ways. I know your names, I know your addresses, I know your IP numbers, I have screen shots and copies of every vile statement and threat you ever made. I know everything I need to know. Get ready for the ram."
You know, franksolich never did get the ram.
-
Well, here it is, nearly 4:00 p.m. central time, 3:00 p.m. mountain time; the day's winding down, and the primitives still haven't remembered.
It's a sad state of affairs when the name of the late red round one's mentioned only here in the DUmpster, and in the prayers of a priest way out in rustic South Dakota.

Thank you, sir!
But given the time-stamp, it's obvious the primitives never remembered the late red round one until several hours after decent and civilized people did.
It's disturbing, though--the campfire's pretty small, and there's no invective about how the freepers killed Andy.
-
As long as I'm waiting and watching, sir, I got an off-topic question.
You do impressive, really impressive, with the bench-press.
I'm curious to know if substituting sorting, stacking, and loading firewood under a 100-degree sun has similar benefits. To give an idea of the undertaking, it involved filling past the top about a foot, a foot and a half, or so, four trailers. The trailers are made of the beds of 1980s Ford pick-up trucks, and loaded full.
Time spent (yesterday): four and a half hours.
The wood was both soft and hard.
The other guy did the cutting (I don't do power tools if I can avoid it); I did the rest.
It's not the same thing as bench-pressing, but do you suppose this was as good as a bench-press workout? I really don't know myself, never having paid attention.
-
but do you suppose this was as good as a bench-press workout?.
I would certainly think so, I assume there would be a lot of bending and lifting and twisting that involves a lot of muscle groups, and if you were doing it a decent pace you'd probably get your heart rate rate up enough to provide an aerobic workout as well. Thing is you would have to do it on a consistent basis to really benefit, working out hard once is just going to make you sore for a few days. :cheersmate:

Actually, I've been doing this about every other day, including weekends (every other day), for the past two weeks, and given how many trees the recent storms knocked down, littering my backyard, it looks as if I'm going to be doing this about every other day clear into September.
My backyard is, uh, pretty enormous, bigger than a football field. It ends on the river.
That's the thing about living out here; life is very physical. No matter who one is, or what one's job is, nobody gets out of heavy lifting of one sort or another. So it's constant exercise; just not always the same sort of exercise.
-
That needs its own thread.
But last I checked it, sir, it was pretty skimpy, and there was no passion in it.

Well, the Cleita primitive was probably lurking over here earlier today, and that's where she got the idea.
No way she would've thought of the late red round one, unless prompted by decent and civilized people.

23. I remember.
I remember the whole sorry mess BBV mess too.
Andy was a good man who had a raw deal from life and from some very unscrupulous people.
One wonders who those "very unscrupulous people" were.
sfexpat2000, perhaps? I'm not sure.

And the $50,000 cash demanded by the hospital before operating on Andy.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Sure.

31. I remember right-wing dirty tricks that delayed a cancer operation.
The details used to be in a Wikipedia article under Andy's name, but it's no longer there.
One summary in http://verifiedvotingfoundation.org/article.php?id=6105
Uh huh. The late red round one lost his entry in wikipedia a long time ago.
One recalls that Fat Che had a cow about that.
As for those "right-wing dirty tricks that delayed a cancer operation," I dunno.
The late red round one had an operation in Seattle, Washington, in late February 2005.
The scamdal was launched at 3:30 p.m. central time, 2:30 p.m. mountain time, on April 30, 2005.
Ho-hum.

When watching this classic movie scene, think of the old guy as Andy and John Cleese's character as us "dirty, unscrupulous freeptards." It's fun!

Well, rats.
I just found out that even the elmers out in the Wilderness, which includes some of the Andyites, didn't remember the late red round one yesterday.
It's a pretty sad state of affairs, when we have to keep track of things for both sides of the aisle.

Andy's forgotten carcass lies amoulderin' in the grave, and termite has long since exhausted the andyscam proceeds on male escorts and interstate glory holes. The DUmbasses who held him up as the pinnacle of libtard martyrdom have completely discarded his memory after only six short years.
And the round red sodomite isn't the only one. Just this past March, I think I mentioned here how upsetting it was that I could not find anywhere nearby a Rachel Corrie Memorial Pancake Breakfast to attend. Poor Rachel, squashed like a bug on a Peterbilt windshield, flatter than a...well, pancake, the Joan d'Arc of anti-Semitism, forgotten after less than ten years. I can understand, sort of, how she'd be forgotten here in red state hell, but I could find no mention of her anniversary even in the blue hellholes of the north.
In the world of DUmpmonkeys, "iconic martyr" is just another temp job.

I see none of the principles remembered. Andy was just a flash in the pan and now they've moved on to the next big thing. Their outrage over this has been spent and so they've moved on.

Thanks for the link to the obit, GOBUCKS, it helped piece a lot of it together for me. I've never seen an obit quite like that. Usually they don't mention it when two people part on "not good terms." And then, all the mention of Stupid Beth, and Pitt's threatening internet post. Just a really odd obit, is all.
-
.....and Pitt's threatening internet post.
That was a sanitized version of what the Bostonian Drunkard actually said.
I never kept the link, but somewhere he threatened me specifically by name, to tie me to a barbed-wire fence and skin me like a cat.
Or something like that.
It was really silly.
-
I don't have a barbed wire thread from the drunken Pitt, just his hilarious Bootheel Cat rant.

9. He might soon need money.
I know he is pretty much broke.
What we raised for his surgery is long since spent on his medical care, and clearly he is in no position to work.
I will check with him (once he is home) and see if he has applied for SSI and food stamps because he certainly ought to qualify at this point. Failing that he ought to qualify for whatever King County has in the way of General Assistance.
I know he is finally getting Medicaid.
His PO Box is on the site, and I'm sure he would appreciate any help, but he hasn't asked for any at this point. (I'm sure money is the farthest thing from his mind.)

This is an imflammatory and baseless accusation. Mr. Stephenson, to our great loss, died of natural causes.
I don't have them here, but one thing I remember best is how every other DUmmy,
wanting to sound like a member of the in-crowd, one who's in-the-know, a cool hepcat,
would claim to have just gotten off the phone from talking directly to the round red sodomite,
right up until his alleged timely demise. There were dozens of these claims in nearly every gargantuan
thread on the subject. I think the bastard died of cell phone radiation.
