He seems to be hinting, in his usual clumsy fashion, that he's about to drop dead, and that he wants a DU forum to be named in his memory.

Two red roses across the moon (no daisy a day dear)
Marta and I met in Mrs Brown's (a good democrat) history class in Sept 1973. I had a past. I was a rebel rouser before we became a couple. She had never been kissed. I would have probably spent a life of in and out of jail or be dead long ago if not for her. She knows. Through good and bad, we have been us for over 40 years now. We turned out to be two red roses across the moon.
She has an eye for beauty. I still have an eye for her. When I call home on my cell phone, the photo is Marta with our 3 dogs around her.
We have always thought our golden years would be spent on the deck watching the birds and nature in our back yard, Margarita in hand. Winters in front of a fire watching the snow fall, or just enjoying watching TV together.
It ain't going to happen that way. I was diagnosed last December, just before Christmas. That is why I'm retiring early near the end of the year. Some days it is a very hard struggle just getting through the work day. I owe progressives that passed the FMLA more than most could understand.
I'll be leaving the DU in the future, not by choice. I'll tell more when I actually leave.
Now I know why people put their names on things before they go. I've intentionally cut back on posts in the Labor Group to see how it will do in the future. It will go on. Omaha Steve's Labor Group has a nice ring to it.
In the last month we have bought a few things at estate sales I consider my swan song for her. A month ago it was King Tut visits the US commemorative panels: http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-rRlT88dfklA/TyCs3hJSHAI/AAAAAAAAB1A/qrFpGJKN0FA/s1600/king+tut+9.jpg

Kick it Steve.

A few months ago, the big guy said he was retiring early because of changes in the Omaha city employees' pension plans.
He needs to stick with his original story, not tell a new one every time he posts.
If this version's true, it's of course sad and tragic.
But one's less inclined to believe it because of his previous allegation.

Maybe he got tired of being accused of trying to board the gravy train and is making it look like he is truly disabled, or will be soon.
-
If he's going to die, I'm sure that it will be a long drawn out affair with about 6 million posts thanking Obama and all the other wonderful democrats before he finally drops dead.
-

Well, the big guy's got to stick with the same story.
He's retiring early because (a) of changes in the Omaha city employees' pension fund or (b) he's ill.
One naturally hopes it's the former, and he makes the latter, if it's true, more difficult to believe because he already told something else earlier.
-
It wouldn't surprise me if that worthless Cleveland ward heeler, pronounced dead by the CalPig a couple of months ago, outlives the lazy big guy.
But the lazy tub of lard has had crooked union doctors working to put him on disability for a long time.
He was riding in that little catbird seat back and forth over the main Omaha sewage intake lagoon, fishing out drowned rats and used condoms for years, having reached the pinnacle of his city career.
Then the crooked union doctors got him transferred to an easier, less odiferous job, scrubbing puke from the backseats of Omaha police cruisers.
Now he finally got a crooked union doctor to give him a first class ticket to the gravy train.
His terminal diagnosis?
"If you don't stop eating like a hog, you're gonna die."
Then again, maybe he spotted a tall, thin guy with unfashionably long hair peering from behind a tree in his backyard.
After all, he does live in Nebraska.

"the DU"
-
Marta and I met in Mrs Brown's (a good democrat) history class in Sept 1973. I had a past. I was a rebel rouser before we became a couple.
Was that before or after he knocked up the other girl.
-
Trust me, I'm gonna nag about it.
Boiled down, the real issue here is that the big guy told one story a few months ago, and now he's telling a different story, about why he's retiring early.
If this current story's the truth, which one hopes isn't the case, why'd he lie the first time?
Now one sees why I have Great Difficulty believing anything a primitive says.
-
I, for one, don't believe it. Not one bit. If he was really going to kick the bucket he would be on DU telling about his terminal illness in great detail. It is just the way he is.
I could be wrong... but I'm betting that he gets on the disability gravy train, begs for money for his "burial" and then "leaves DU" only to return under some other DU screen name.
-
WTH? Did he do another post and run? I don't see any replies from him after the OP. Maybe that was his swan song and the next post will be by Marta.
-
That's just his way, he isn't able to think fast enough to provide replies.
-
If he's going to die, I'm sure that it will be a long drawn out affair with about 6 million posts thanking Obama and all the other wonderful democrats before he finally drops dead.
Yeah, I'd put my money on that, even assuming he didn't accidentally get someone else's diagnosis under the assembly line medical care system his heroes brought to life.
BTW, Steve-o, it's 'Rabble-rouser.' Rebels don't need to be roused, they're already rebelling, and 'Rabble' is a much more accurate description of the dim-witted losers you were running with in any case.

Wow! So his whole life boils down to wanting to have an obscure forum on a kook website named after him.
William Morris just rolled over in his grave and threw up in his mouth.... more than just a little.
.
-
Ambition... some people have it, some don't.
-
In the unlikely event it's true, let's hope he lingers long and hard, and posts daily until the end.
The only problem is the big guy is sooo poor at expressing himself, he'd make even a gory, gruesome demise a boring read.
Sometimes I think the big guy is as boring as sparkly Mike.

It's a chore just to find the labor group on DU, the guy set his sights pretty low.
-
Steve isn't sick. No way. I think there is another reason.
Steve is a union man and therefore LAZY.
His disability scams failed and he was forced to work with the cops...who won't put up with union goldbricking. As a consequence Steve is retiring the moment he is eligible. And finally he will get paid for not working--his lifelong dream finally realized.

35. My dear Omaha Steve...
You look good to me, still.
Kiss of death. The CalPig is wrong 100% of the time.
She congratulated the walrus on a post that ruined his wallduded life.
She pronounced the useless ward heeler WC Green dead, and he's too lazy to die.
Now she says the big guy looks good. Massive coronary coming up.
-
No, I think he's just being melodramatic again. His wife has the same obsession with death, they had that cemetary page on the graveyards of Omaha, or something like that.
On one of his FB pages, Steve implies he's going to be around at least until this September:

I don't know if he's really "exiting".
After stirring up the DUmmies like this, seems to me he's sort of obligated to end it.
All those autographs from 1960s and 1970s TV show bit players should make one hell of an estate for his family.

I'll reserve judgment. I had a close relative in the prime of life pass away from a sudden appearance of cancer this year, he went from active and normal to dead in about two months. Life is uncertain.

So, I guess we have one important question left unanswered. When does early voting open up in Omaha? :yawn:

I'm opening a pie shop.
It will be structured as a "social enterprise" with all profits donated to music programs in the local schools.
It will not be just a pie shop, but a music venue where local students and local acoustic musicians may play together and play for each other and play for others to hear.
A "board game cafe" is possibly the DUmbest thing I've ever heard, including poor addled grasswipe Judy's pie shop.

I believe that's a different Steve Dawes. I do agree with you about the idea though.
Could it be his son? They do appear to have some similarities.
-

You're right. The big guy, the dying Bellevue Dawes, is Steven L.
Could be his son. Omaha North - Didn't the big guy move from there to Bellevue to ogle the high school basketball girls?
-
If Omaha Steve is on his way out I hope it's a long, expensive, debilitating and extremely painful ending of his worthless existence. As a DUmbass it's what he truly deserves for being the human being that he has been.
-

Actually, he moved from a heavily blue area in Omaha to a heavily red suburb of Omaha (Bellevue) because of the crime and decreptitude in the former.
It's like what the hippies did to Vermont decades ago, or like what the Pitts are trying to do to New Hampshire right now; once they're done ruining a place, they look for a different place to ruin.
-
In other words- stick a $25 fork in him. He's done.
You know, I'm a very practical person.
There's a place for sentiment, and there's a place for practicality.
I wonder (a) how much in life insurance poor dear Marta's going to collect, and (b) if Marta can continue collecting her widow's pension off the big guy's city pension if she re-marries.
<<<marriageable material.

I'm sure there's some kind of survivor's benefit built in to the absurdly generous public employees' pension plan in Omaha.
But the big guy labored without any useful education, with a work ethic tending to indolence, and apparently without a winning personality (multiple tries for union office, always finishing last). As a result, he'll be retiring from about the lowest rung on the public gravy train ladder.
The pension for a puke scrubber, even from the generous city, must be a pittance, further reduced by his young age.
Also, the absurdly generous life insurance given to public employees either goes away or is hugely reduced upon retirement.
It's doubtful the big guy has any other life insurance, since he's always spent all disposable income on travel to collect the autographs of bit players in old TV shows.
Unless there's an explosion of interest in actors who portrayed unnamed German soldiers in "Combat!" back in the mid-60s, Marta is out of luck, and coach is best advised to remain a bachelor.

Yeah, checked again, and that is his son, Steven E. He always omits his grown children and he has a daughter named Bobbi by another woman other than Marta. He just met her for the first time in 2007, when Bobbi was around 33 years old.
I'm beginning to think he did get some bad news from the doctor:

72. Marta works in IT
She can work from home most of the time except for a special project once in a while. She has been told she can work from home all she needs while taking care of me. So we still have some time left together. Some of it on the deck.
but being the DUmmy that he is, he had to go make the rest of the DUmp miserable as well.
-
They should name LocoNuts's movie group after the big guy.
Then they could both be dead.
-
He is a DUmp crazy and likely hypochondriac that is fixated on the disability gravy train.
It would take all of 2 minutes for him to convince himself he is about to enter eternities roaster but most likely he will suck the public teat for years to come. :censored:

Since the big guy's so eager to announce his upcoming demise--which might, or might not, be true, given how the primitives lie so much--I think it'd be nice if he offered a schedule too.
No one, not even the best scientific and medical minds, can predict exactly when a death might occur, but they can discern a general idea--three months, six months, nine months, a year.
I think the big guy should tell the primitives how much time the professionals predict he's got left.
That way, I'd be able to make up a strategy for courting and wooing Marta, so as to get in on the life insurance proceeds.
(note for primitives who don't understand humor and irony: of course if the big guy's really got a limited time left in this time and place, I really think he should toss the primitives and Skins's island overboard, and instead spend his remaining time with his grandchildren.)

That "board game cafe" sounds alot like the game store I frequent. Basically it's a game store that also has a room or two for people to play the games they sell there. The one I go to also holds tournaments and special events for the games they sell.
-
If he really dies (and painfully I hope), let's take up a collection and put the text from www.electstevedawes.com on his tombstone. That was definitely the high point of his worthless life.

That was classic, and so richly deserved.
I warned the big guy many times, sometimes daily, that such a thing was coming, and he paid no attention. And aware of his density, I made sure to warn him in plain simple sixth-grade English that unless he did something to pre-empt it (even suggesting what the big guy could do, to pre-empt it), it was coming.....and he paid no attention.
Perhaps the next primitive won't be so dismissive of franksolich's advice and counsel.

The board game cafe isn't that bad of an idea for those kids that still play D&D and other games. There has been a gaming convention held in Omaha for close to 25 years called Nuke -Con, I helped getting it started. The local gamers only have some comic book stores and their homes to play games and one more place is probably more then welcome,the problem is will it make enough to stay open where it;s located
-
We used to have one of those here when I was in high school. It went out of business once people were able to play games online and Dungeons & Dragons went out of style ("Games Extraordinaire" for any long-term residents). The building it was housed in is still there but has changed hands a few times. I think it's a law office-slash-massage parlor now.
I found a local shop that still sells merchandise, but they don't have a place for game-playing.

Not that much a rush on the big guy.
He's a waste of taxpayers' money, but so far it's just at various menial, entry-level jobs.

He's soaking up tax money like water going over Niagara Falls.

The one I play at, Game Kastle in Santa Clara Ca., has people playing all sorts of games, from historical miniatures to card games like Magic the Gathering and Pokémon (the kids love that one). The ages of the participants range from the very young to the 60+ crowd. As for the business staying open? As a gamer myself, I wish them luck as more places for people to play can only be a good thing but, as Omaha Steve is involved, I fear that it's not long for the business world. DUmbasses bring nothing but ruin to the world and OS in no exception.
