A Day Without Dick...
I suppose I'm not the only one to notice that DD (or Arthur, as I lovingly refer to him) hasn't been here for a couple of days...
Would it be inappropriate to say that a day without dick is like a day without sunshine?

It is NOT inappropriate in the least.
I miss Dickon, too.

Where is DD?

Lis said that he mentioned in the chat room that his son was coming and he'd be posting less for a bit. Until I heard that, I was a little panicked. She's not worried, so I'm trying not be either...

Good to hear.

Okay - I won't freak out. But, how rude of him not to at least check in - and to put his son before us! Humph.
And Stilli, I so had a good naughty line, but Lis and Bwak have already chastised me for perceived 'naughtiness' (when in truth it was their thought processes that went there!). So, I will refrain and just e mail it to ya! heh heh
Missin' dd, but glad you're here and posted this.
So appreciate both!

Hum. I'm thinking... (hurts)
He has been getting a lot of help with his PC lately, and it seems like it was crashing every 10 minutes or so.
Could be related....

Hey Kanye!
Do you like fish sticks?

Maybe he's just out having fun. Hope so.

Me, too...but next time he needs to tell us! He's become too much of a fixture around here, and when he goes MIA, I worry!

Isn't the title fo your post what Marcotte and Valenti were discussing on the front page a few days ago? As I recall, they were against it.

Well your question might not pass one of those "parental control" filters... But I'm sure that many women and quite a few men, all over the world, would heartily agree with your sentiments.

LOL!!!!! I was beginning to wonder if ANYONE was going to get it! I guarantee you, Arthur is going to think its funny!

You are a very naughty, if still idealistic, young lady.

Well, ya know, if you can't be a LITTLE naughty, what's the point?

Still: I was unsettled, too, the other day, before I read that D was with his son. Let's hope he is taking a well-earned rest from his mighty labors on our behalf.
Of course, if we don't hear from him tomorrow...well, how does one arrange an APB?

I finally broke down and e-mailed him, but haven't heard anything. In spite of my jokes, I'm really worried about him...

Good for you, stilli. Son or no son, it's hard to believe he wouldn't at least check in or something.

I am fairly new here but have loved DD's postings and sure do miss him - I hope all is well and he will return and think we are all silly for worrying. Hurry back DD.

Maggie! How nice to see you! I'm happy to see you commenting and recommending...any chance you'll do some blogging of your own? I hope Arthur is ok, too...I can live w/ silly!

would leave me feeling unmanned...
I hope that DD's absence has nothing to do with how little I've heard out of Cheney's mouth the past couple of days...

(To be recited each noon in chorus by the readers of Dickday until his return upon the greensward at Camelot and the TPM Café)
Chorus:
O Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo?
Deny thy father and refuse thy name;
Or if thou wilt not, be but sworn my love
And I'll no longer be a Capulet.
(Dickday behind a bush):
[Aside] Shall I hear more, or shall I speak at this?
Chorus:
'Tis but thy name that is my enemy:
Thou art thyself, though not a Montague.
What's Montague? It is nor hand nor foot,
Nor arm nor face, nor any other part
Belonging to a man. O be some other name!
What's in a name? That which we call a rose
By any other word would smell as sweet;
So Romeo would, were he not Romeo call'd,
Retain that dear perfection which he owes
Without that title. Romeo, doff thy name,
and for thy name, which is no part of thee,
Take all myself.
(Dickday behind a bush)”
Ahahahahahaha.

Maybe his son came to treat him to a new computer system? I remember him saying that his was a really old, crappy refurb (I'm picturing something just slightly better than win95). I know he had no sound and could not see video very well. Maybe his son saw how much he was enjoying his little used box and decided to take him out and splurge?
Ahh it is a nice thought anyway.
Of course it was the holiday weekend as well. Maybe he went out of town. I think we can cut people some slack for not checking in when they are on vaca.
To DD: Hey buddy, we love ya.
From: Your TPM stalkers :)

I guess I am kinda stalking him, huh/ LOL! But it's being done w/ great love...hope that makes it okay!!!

Sorry, that did sound shitty didn't it? I really didn't mean it that way Stilli (LOL). I have been wondering about our resident gentleman myself and am glad you posted this. :)

I'm torn here SI... The double entendre, creates too many logical and some macabre neural pathways through which I can evaluate the question, for me to even guess as to how to respond. That said, at the risk of sounding of a sexual predisposition which I don't see myself as ever being a participant, even when factoring in the 'sliding scale' of sexual preference... yeah, I miss Dick. ;)

SI, I didn't think you were capable of writing such a headline. But it's certainly one way to get readers. Perhaps the NY Post has an opening. :-)

Okay, just as an update here, folks....I caved in to the worry going on and called three local hospitals in Dick's hometown. All of them were very kind but none had him.
I then tried the local police station but it seems they are all on voicemail. Must be a pretty darn peaceful town, LOL....
I left my name and number with the local authorities asking for a call back if they have any information on a certain rattled old atty.
I have a feeling all is well, and that our Dickon is simply getting a new PC. If I hear anything different, I will post here.
Please do not worry so.....sometimes people disappear for days on end, but that's not a bad thing.
Just means we are more grateful than ever when they come back.

You don't just rawk! You absolutely RAAAAAWCK!!!!!

Awwwww, stopppppidddd.....
Hey, I'm just as concerned as all of you, but we have to hope for the best and stay cool and calm, too. And calling little towns in search of info is my specialty at work, so it was easy.
But I think cool heads should prevail, and when Dickon comes back he'll have a great laugh, greater than all the ones he's given us so far.

Thank you, thank you. You do rawk, lis. So do you, bwak.
I'll admit, my head does not feel cool on this issue, but I'm willing to defer to ones that are, for now. Calling all cool heads ...
My specialty is PC's for goddess' sake. He'd better come back with a new one soon. :-)
(Clink). Cluck. Luv ya both.

thanks, miss lisb...I was going one more day before calling the police! Didn't think 'bout hospital! I am really trying to stay calm. I have a personal rule about not worrying about things I cannot control, but I am breaking it every 5 minutes.

FYI...Just heard from the man! His computer crashed. He will try to post from the library tomorrow if there is anything left of h after I beat him for scaring us to death...I am standing on the corner 1/2 a mile from my house where there is a break in the ridge and I can get a signal and am typing on an iPhone keyboard just so u can quit worrying. More later!

After you finish with him, put an ankle bracelet on him that broadcasts his GPS location to Googlemap. Then we can all get a good night's sleep.
