You will be missed greatly
However, with your exquisite taste in music, babes, humor, and life in general I'm sure you'll be putting your non .Org time to good use

Why did the chicken cross the road?
So that its subjects will view it with admiration, as a chicken which has the daring and courage to boldly cross the road,
but also with fear, for whom among them has the strength to contend with such a paragon of avian virtue? In such a manner is the princely
chicken's dominion maintained. ~Machiavelli
Re: Thanks! ...and goodnight.
Damn, i was hoping this was just a misleading topic title, especially when i saw the author.
Always entertaining or intresting i remember amusing comments whilst topics are shut and warning points handed out, and some intresting storys.... i was going to say ill never forget the one about your dog, but i only remember the jist of it and that it was a pretty emotional story.
Hope you come back a lot! and heres hoping your replacement is half as entertaining, Peace (hippy emoticon needed here)
In remembrance of our great Admin Tosa Inu, A tireless worker with the patience of a saint. As long as I live I will not forget you. Thank you for everything!
Re: Thanks! ...and goodnight.
Sorry to see you go, man. Reconsider?
Re: Thanks! ...and goodnight.
God bless you, Beirut.
Re: Thanks! ...and goodnight.
Goodbye Beirut. I hope that everything is alright and that you return asap. You will be sorely missed.

Be well Beirut and thanks for everything. The frontroom wont be the same without your axe wielding moderatorship. All the best in the future.

Re: Thanks! ...and goodnight.
Beirut, may your axe never dull, your swings strike true and your crys never falter.
I am sure the Gameroom and Frontroom will miss your presence, but we will remember you.
Re: Thanks! ...and goodnight.
God luck with the real life issues,
and may the Org see your axe swunged here again soon

And does my life gain or lose meaning based on my reaction to such solipsism?

Re: Thanks! ...and goodnight.
Good God, it's a genuine farewell to your virtual arms and online friends.
I will greatly miss you, dear chum. Not just because of your sense of humor, great use of smileys and sunny Frontroom moderation. I will miss you most of all for your well-reasoned, consistent and dogged (pun intended) Backroom posts about the Middle East, about WWII, Canadian politics, ethical issues and various other subjects.
Well, I suppose all good things must come to an end, what-what?

Re: Thanks! ...and goodnight.
Sorry to see you go Beirut.
Can't remember a time when you weren't a moderator here, but I guess real life does sort of catch up with you at times.
Good luck with whatever you'll be doing, and do make sure to come back at one point or the other.

Re: Thanks! ...and goodnight.
The entire Org owes you a debt of gratitude for your brilliant service cheerfully and dutifully rendered day after day, week after week, year after year. You've been an inspiration to us all.
I join Banquo's Ghost and the others in taking the liberty of flattering myself by calling you "friend".
Respectfully,
Be well. Do good. Keep in touch.
Re: Thanks! ...and goodnight.
Wow, much has been said that I couldn't hope to match in eloquence. I'll just add my own sincere "Thank you" to the resounding chorus already happening. You made the Org a fun place to be a member. Take care of yourself and your family, hopefully someday you'll find your way back here. Until then...

I've already said my goodbyes in private, so I was going to refrain from posting in this thread, but I wanted everyone to know just how good a companion you've been in moderating this forum for the past few years.
Thanks, my friend.

Re: Thanks! ...and goodnight.
Blimey, so BKS did ban you after all!
Are you packing in the .Org as well? If so that's a double whammy. A great moderator and contributor to these boards, you will be missed. Farewell old friend, farewell.
There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

Why dash, blast and confound the whole thing, I go away for two weeks and look what happens?
Anyway, I wish you all the best of luck that a chap could wish for another chap, and by Jove, I have found you to be a first-rate, sterling, 24 carat, gilt-edged chap with double brass knobs on, and I only hope that you will soon return to grace us with your wit, your style, in short, your inimitable panache.
I raise a glass of port to you and sincerely pray that Fortune smiles favourably upon you.

Sorry to see you go, bud, enjoy the rest of your time!
Re: Thanks! ...and goodnight.
It was great having you around Beirut. Thanks for convincing me to buy a wooden hafted axe instead of a fiberglass one, it's worked out great so far.
Be well, and best wishes to the misses, kids and of course the canine member of your family.

Wow. Truly the end of an era, seeing the shiny double-headded axe head into retirement. May your wood stay dry (or get wet as often as you like).
