comet!!!!!!!!!!Why don't you ever visit? Till now, I mean.
Yeah, we're pretty enthralled with the pants, and that's been the major source of discussion since the tour restarted.
I was here daily for a loooooong time. Then sort of drifted away to other areas and have been absent a while. But if the pants are still topic #1 I guess things are still 
I've read that when he first started making money, he bought a home for them that had a spiral staircase, leading up to their room...and that's what the song's about...le sigh.
Besides all that, it's just a gorgeous song.
( did NOT know that) BIG Le Sigh!
I don't know.
oh.
don't have my earbuds near-by...sounde3de pretty nive BUT ican't usually get good sound from the laptop speakers so i'll re-listen tomorrow!
Really?? Weird, I don't remember that!
You should catch up on some recent threads. We've essentially decided that the pantsare about to become a separate entity. We've basically plotted out a career path for it, decided that it needs its own staff, etc.or the contents within, rather
Maybe Wild will remember, or Gg 
(or maybe everyone will have forgotten ) I can't remember who else was around a lot then. (I have a very suckful memory, my bad!) OH wait... or Carlos might remember, he was here. 
hi dere, bc!
You were never here during the time I was here. It's been a couple years or so at least since I was here daily. Maybe more. Yeah it's been a while.
OMG a career path?
(when you took time off from here <PGP>) I think we just missed each other. 
I was probably here in 07 and 08.... maybe ... I really don't know, but it's been a while!
( if your concerned) I just want to try it or my self
Hi dazz
I remember that now VP
You're welcome for the screencaps... my pleasure, literally.
But this thread has always been like my home base. Sorry I missed you back then! 
It's not like I was never in here at all, I popped in sometimes, and I kept in touch with everyone. just...wow, we must have been like two ships passing in the night.
Did you notice that I finally let Ben go? It was hard...
Anyway...the leather pants! Um, yay, best wardrobe decision ever!
We even nearly wrote a country song about them. Well, about them, and Bono lying to us.
Farewell old friend.
I miss entire pages sometimes before I finish a reply.
One of my favorite moments ever.
Wish you could have been there, VP.
Btw, you need to meet BC, she is a classy lady.
ok, gotta go for realz
Of course. What would you want with a dorky, 15 yr old pic.
so how do you make the gifs?
trust me I'm not going to "usurp" your giffing
Oh I'm not worried silly. I love everyone else's gifs too. I make them with photoshop. Do you have it? I would be happy to PM you if you do.

Aw, that's nice, thanks.
Oh, I'm already quite enamoured with her.
btw... As those who were here when I was before might remember (and much to Gg's amusement) I am the slowest typer ever, so I usually take really long to respond to posts and I don't mean to, sorry!
Yes sorry that's what I meant, I remember you sort of took time off from being here all the time. Now I'm totally curious and I'm going to have to search for old threads when i was here daily, but I don't know how I'd go about it. OH well. LOL.
Yes, the pants. DO direct me to this song. At first I thought you said you wrote a country song TO them.
And I did just notice that about you and Ben,
I can't tell you how many times I've come this close to bidding Mr. Bouncy goodbye. In fact, just last week I toyed with the idea, but I changed my mind at the last minute.

and I'm "well gee, I broke 50, go me." I remember back in the old days when the thread limit was 500 posts, we'd go through a couple a day. Lately it's sped up again (thanks, Bono's pants!), not quite to the old time level, but enough to make me proud.
Send it to VH1 for the next 80's special
I suck at searches, so maybe if you have an idea of when it was, go back in the archive and search by date? I think you can also search by poster too, but not quite sure how.
Oh, I don't think the song went beyond the conception stage. I just mentioned writing one along the lines of "Bono, I know you lie to me [about new albums] but when I see your pants, I can't hear your lies" and Cori sort of picked up on the tone. So, it's up for grabs, if you want to have a go at it.
It was HARD getting rid of Ben! Crazy hard. I know what you mean, people around here change avatars like people change socks, and although I've considered it, I just can't. This is the only avatar I've ever had here.
Aw, don't worry about your typing speed. I hear people now that are all like "oh yeah, I type 120 wpm"
And I've always thought it cool that you've kept him so long. You OWN him. I don't change mine a ton or anything and can easily go years with the same one, tho I do put up my Bono/Edge party animals for special birthday occasions. I'm about to change back to my regular real soon here. Bouncy Bono has been with me though since the very beginning, so if I do let him go it's gonna be tough. Plus I almost did once and Gg found out and nearly killed me, so there's always that incentive to keep him. 
I don't think I could write the country song. Though I did whip out a Bono hair-prayer one time years ago that some people round these parts still use often.
