One simple step to say thank you.

Emo and Erpe, I love you both. Thank you for the smiles you provide. Thank you for the laughter. Thank you for making sure the document was gravitationally secure.

*raises a glass of water in a toast*

"Here's to those that love us well and those who don't can go to...hey!

Forever your,

Trinnie

*hugs and hugs*

Sweet Trin, Trin!! <hugs and hugs>

I would *love* to claim credit for that beautiful piece of writing, but the honor belongs to sweet Emo. She is, as I am sure you have guessed, a person of magnificence, as are you. She has not been in the forums lately, but I will be certain to tell her of this thread's existence and of your kind, kind words.

Love and love and love and hugs,
Erpe

I gave one to a friend and the next day I won the lottery! I gave another to a homeless person and a week later, she was elected governor and gets to live in the governor's mansion (at least for the next four years).

I gave another to the cashier at Starbucks and now I don't even have to pay for my triple shot large peppermint mocha not-so-hot-that-I-can't-drink-it lattes.

But... they only work if you pass them on in accordance with step five. I gave one off-handedly to a passerby on the street and he shot me with a concealed weapon - but I got better. Being slow to learn the lesson, I passed off another without the required phrasing and the next day, all of my hair and my cat's hair fell out. My camelhair coat took the worst of it though, and I shudder to think of what might have happened if I owned any mohair anything.

However, since receiving my gravatationally secure tracts, I have experienced greater joy - about 153% greater, in fact. Without Mnemosyne, I'd be almost 40% less joyful than I am now. Bless you emo! Bless us everyone!

Way to draw a lost sheep back into the forum's fold: tug on the wool of its ego, why dontcha?

("You HAVE to see the thread," insisted Roo IRL, even though all I wanted to see right then were the cherished depths of her blue blue eyes.)

Sweet people. *blush* Thank you for your kind comments (and, in Introvert's case, comments that go somewhat wonderfully *beyond* kindness)! This only spurs me to send out MORE of the pamphlets to even MORE people. Onward, ONWARD, I say: until all the planet (or at least approximately ten thousand of its inhabitants) knows greater joy in this world of sorrow!

Mwa ha ha ha.

Mwa ha ha ha HA HA HA HA HA HA!

Back to folding & stapling, ad delirium, go I ...

No, really, I mean:

O

M

G!

Because Mark Frauenfelder emailed me a couple days ago to say that the Five Simple Steps will be reviewed on his BoingBoing site soon.

Which means that, when I'm all Webfamous and slashdotted out, you guys will have been, like, The First On Your Block.

Oh boy. w00t & so on!

But, seriously? OMG.

Now just wait until I get my music video finished ...
