On this day, October 20th, in history:

1803...US Senate ratifies the Louisiana Purchase
1910...1st appearance of a cork centered baseball in World Series (World Series #7)
1968...Jacqueline Kennedy marries Aristotle Onassis
1973..."Sat Night Massacre" occurs during the Watergate Scandal
1977...3 members of rock group Lynyrd Skynyrd die in charter plane crash

And on October 20, 1967, in a hospital in Titusville, PA, Little Baby Lasher, the youngest of 4 boys, wailed out for the very first time (but definitely NOT the last *hehehe*) as the delivering doctor slapped him silly on his cute, little wrinkled behind. Baby Lasher was none too thrilled with this malicious ass-whooping, and spends his days seeking retribution by "givin' it back" to all the "newbie-borns" here on the BB. ;)

I recall that during one of my first few nights here on the board, I stumbled across the "Member's Profiles" section. A few of the names caught my attention, and among those was "Lasher". Curiosity as to what kind of person would voluntarily call himself such a violent-sounding name as "Lasher" prompted me to click on the profile.

Highly disappointed by his "pic" <smirk> (although in the famous words of Cartman, he's definitely a BEEFCAKE... BEEFCAKE!!), I went on to read his profile. I loved the sense of humor that radiated through (I think it was his "dream of world domination" thang that made me chuckle--very cute), and right away thought that this was someone that I would like to get to know.

UNTILLLLLLLLLLL...

One week later, I finally saw a post by the infamous Lasher pop up on the board. It was such an "in-yer-face-bordering-on-fuck-U-rude" post, that my first thought was, "WHAT an ASShole!!...This is definitely someone with whom I could NOT see myself becoming life long buds." Yeah...believe it or not my newbie friends, Lasher wasn't ALWAYS the sweet, gentle Lasher that you see around here nowadays. Hear me now...buh-leeve me lay-tuh! Yah. *nodding*

Regardless of his arrogant and butt-holish ways, ya just couldn't help but be fascinated by the guy. You either loved him or ya hated him. There was no in-between. Even through my period of "quasi-contempt" for "the man, the attitude, the ego", I began looking for his posts on a daily basis. I wanted to match wits with this super-sado-macho BB icon. I was ready to rumble.

I got my chance on May 11th. On a thread called "Are most women potencial <winces> whores", someone accused Lasher of posting as an unregistered user (yes...*gasp*...it's true) named "Whore". Here was Lasher's reponse:

#1 Anyone who's been around this board for awhile knows where I am at 5 PM on a Wednesday night (that was the time of Whore's post, btw) and...

#2 Anyone who's been around this board for awhile knows that I would not hesitate to hurt anyone's feelings, and...

#3 Knows that my ego is too big to do anything anonymously, and....

#4 I would cut my own fingers off before I would post anything with smilies in it.

Someone's not very bright.


(See what a meanie he was!!)

So, just to piss him off, I took it upon myself to post this:

Introducing the new "Lasher Special Edition Smiley" brought to you by the "queen of smilies" herself--LL:

http://geocities.com/r337m0nk3y/icw/004.gif
"I would cut my own fingers off before I would post ANYTHING with smilies in it. ARRGG! ARRGG! ARRGG!"

Followed by this post (just to be cute and a smartass):

Oh boy...I'm in for it now, aren't I? http://geocities.com/r337m0nk3y/cwm/uhoh2.gif

Not knowing him very well, I wasn't sure how he was gonna take my playful taunt, so I waited anxiously for the counter attack that I was certain was to come. I prepared myself with every possible comeback I could think of if he did indeed shoot an insult back my way. But instead of a retalitation, I received an email. It was from Lasher. Shocked and half-expecting to find a barrage of insults directed at me, the "bitch" who DARED to mock "the great one". Here's what it said:

Hi,

I can't get the damn BB to let me post a response right now, and if I wait til later I'm gonna forget. The "Special Edition" smilie kicks ass!! LOL...I may have to include it with every post now.

Just wanted to let ya know I enjoy your posts. Nice to see someone else with a sense of humor. Hehehe...

Take care,

Lasher


This was me after reading this letter ----> http://smilecwm.tripod.com/net/icon25.gif

And thus began one of the most wonderful friendships that I have ever had the privilage to enjoy. :)

Lasher...

Over the past 5 months, you have become my closest friend and confidante. I would literally trust you with my life. I know that while most of the people here only get to see the "Lasher persona" that you so prominently display, there are very few that you have allowed to get past that and truly know the man behind the uhhh...*ahem*...legend. I have to be honest and say that it saddens me at times that people here are not able to fully see how amazing you are, but at the same time, I feel blessed and incredibly special that you've allowed me to see that.

Never have I had a friend who is as loyal, caring, trustworthy, and giving of himself as you are. You've laughed with me, cried with me, faxed me silly pictures (LOL!) just to cheer me up when I was down, and have never once NOT been there when I needed a friend. You are one in a million, "smiley boy"...<warm smile>...and I am lucky to call you friend.

Have a wonderful birthday, darling! :)

Always,

Lis
 
I know I just told ya this, Lis, but I wanted to say it again in front of God and everybody.

That is absolutely the most incredible thing I've ever read. I've been sitting here reading this over and over not knowing whether to laugh or cry or what exactly to do. I think I might actually be speechless...

I'm the lucky one, Lis. I hope you know just how much this means to me. I only wish I could find words right now to describe how I feel.

Thank you soooooooooo much, hon.

S.
 
Shit, I'm all teary again.

Happy Birthday, Lashman.

And LL, quit being so fucking scarce. I miss you. :)
 
Speechless? Lasher? Say it isn''t so! Though, after reading that, I can see why. Especially from Lovely Latina.

Happiest of Days Lasher.
 
Sorry Laurelita...been without a 'puter. :(

Oh...btw...MY birthday is February 13th, and my favorite flavor is amaretto...you know...JUST IN CASE you've always wondered about that. ;);)
 
Wishing a Happy Birthday to the guy who got me hooked on this board. May your wit only get sharper.
 
Sorry Laurelita...been without a 'puter.

Excuses, excuses. *rolls eyes* ;)

Oh...btw...MY birthday is February 13th, and my favorite flavor is amaretto...you know...JUST IN CASE you've always wondered about that.

LMAO! I'll keep that in mind, my lil cheesecake pinup girl...
 
LL, that was beautiful, thank you for sharing.

Lasher, happy birthday! (though to be honest, I would never have pegged you as a Libra)
 
I must add my best wishes too.

I want to tell you that I call you LL2. That is my term of endearment for you and it means Lovable Lasher - to distinguish you from the author of this thread. I have never spoken with her but I feel the same way she does. Hello and thanks for the post Miss Latina.

You, sir, got me hooked on this place. Ok- actually I am hooked on you. And I don't care who knows it. Yeah- it's definitely the intelligence, wit and wisdom thing.

And, while I don't really believe in this stuff I have heard that a Libra-Libra match is awesome. Mine was last week
 
Can I admit to being a closet Lasher fan, too? Always enjoy your posts, and your blunt style.

Happy Birthday, you youngster!
 
Knowing your fondness for smilies

Happy Birthday Lasher.:):):):):):):):)
 
A closet Lasher fan here also. Peek out of the crack in the door to say Happy Birthday Lasher.
 
Lasher,

Just for you I am going to do something that I have never, never, never done (and will never, never, never, never do again)...I'm going to use a smiley.

:)

There.

Don't ever ask me to do that again.

Happy Birthday!

Dixon
 
Gosh.....

Hell, I don't hold a bit of candle to any of this stuff but it struck me that you must be 33 (right?) - so I ran a search on "numerology" thought for fun I'd run today's date and your age and see what popped up. What popped up was "for pay" sights - Numerologists making money. Geesh! Fuhgedaboudit.

So I simply went to the first Astrology page I could find and...........

"This may be the time to take a day off to reflect, think, and make plans. It might even be beneficial to find some amusement that will take your mind off your mind. You're in a leadership position and should sense a new level of financial success within about four days. You may experience some delays, however. Keep going and set even more expansive goals."

Hmmmmm? "Your mind off your mind." That sounds pretty good to me.

(An aside - watchin' the Poseidon adventure here on the tube - the flip the ship over scene - and no beaver at all. A pre-beaver movie. Every baby hangin' from a bolted down table - is wearing pants. Oh well.)

Anyway - may your ship stay upright and afloat and your smoke stacks billow black - happy birthday.
 
A very happy birthday to you, Lasher--

That was quite a commentary about you from Ms. LL. Friends, like she describes you to be, are rare indeed.
The gift of real friendship is truly something to cherish.

Well I don't do this very often,but I would like to wish you a very "Happy Birthday Lasher!"

Very nice complement to you from LL,any man would be proud to receive a complement like that.

"Geeze,when I grow up,I want to be just lke you!"(LOL)

Have a beer on me!
 
"Happy birthday to me... Happy birthday to me...."

Wow and damn. I figured this thread was gonna die a quick death, ya know? People would see LL's name on it, and figure it's another of those wonderfully insightful and sexy threads of hers... Then they'd click on in and read what she had to say... I kept picturing this kinda response from all the Literoticans out there...

*click*

Ohhhh, Cool! Another thread from Lovely Latina. About damn time. Wonder what she's been doing...

*click*

Hmmm...

*reading*

Lasher's birthday... big fucking whoop...

*reading more*

*laughing*

*laughing more*

God, that LL sure is funny...

*reading more*

*BLINK BLINK*

LASHER? She's talking about LASHER?... He's WHAT??... You GOTTA be fucking kidding me!

*BLINK BLINK*

*BLINK BLINK*

*Sitting in Stunned Silence*

Hm...

*Click*

Anyways, that's how I pictured it, lol. Anyone who reacted that way, please raise your hands... I thought so.

Btw, Mortto said it best:

Very nice complement to you from LL, any man would be proud to receive a complement like that.

Don't worry, I am. She's an absolutely amazing person, and I am very proud and very honored to be able to call her my friend.

Ok, ummm... Sparky, that was an interesting post ya had there. Especially this part: You're in a leadership position and should sense a new level of financial success within about four days. I start a new job on Monday and it is a significant pay increase over what I was making before... That would be within four days, right? Ohhh, and this part, too: may your ship stay upright and afloat and your smoke stacks billow black... That billowing black smoke part is a good thing, right??? LOL...

BrainyBeauty, I've been called an awful lot of things on this board, but that might just be the first time I've been called "Lovable" (and I betcha Softly coughed up a hairball when she saw it, LOL). And just for being so nice I promise to go the whole weekend without making any jokes about the Cincy Bungles.

Dixon, you gotta watch out for those damn smilies, they'll bite ya in the ass if you're not careful. Sure, you can start small and say you're only gonna do it once, but next thing ya know you end up posting big-assed giant smilies like the one April posted here (And thanks for that, April. He's a pretty hip looking dude).

The gift of real friendship is truly something to cherish

Whoda thunk it? We actually agree on something, Blue.

Ok, I'm not really any good at these long-assed, mushy posts. It's hard for me to go this long without telling someone to fuck off, so maybe I outta finish this up.

Thanks to everyone who's posted here wishing me well (special thanks again to LL, and to Laurel.). It means more to me than you can imagine. I'll be around most of the day (we're not actually celebrating til tomorrow. My buddy is up from Texas and we've got the Corporate box for the Pens-BlueJackets game tomorrow night. Woo Hoo!), if anyone else wants to say nice things about me I PROMISE to respond again later, LOL.
 
Happy birthday Lasher!!! What did you wish for, a victory over the Browns?

Lis, I think Lasher is "Whore." "Whore" and I collaborated on a story about her real life experiences as a, well, you know. We just had it finished and then she up and vanished on me. I never submitted the story and won't until when and if she resurfaces. I think Lasher got a sudden case of the guilties about playing the girlie.

So "Whore," 'er I mean Lasher, can I submit the story? And dagnabbit, hurry up and get those old stories into the new script. I have 5 new stories I'm sitting on.

What I like best about you, birthday boy, is that you have the ability to sort through all the shit and tell it like it is. Don't ever stop, even though Alzeimer's Disease is apparently taking its toll.
 
Lasher sorry I'm late here.

Happy Birthday, and you know, I seem to remember that Lasher once said "Online friends? It Will NEVER happen to me"!

Well Lasher babe, it seems to me that you have found that one special person ... online. You and LL share something that seems pretty special to me (yes as friends people, come on the man loves his wife to death).

LL what an awesome thread, you made me laugh, cry and laugh some more. Thanks :)

Have a great birthday Gorgeous (Oh and yes he is ladies .. gorgeous I mean) :)

Happy Birthday :D
