Martha was truly awesome. I so wish that The Motels had done "Take My Breath Away" instead of Berlin.

Lardi, I never meant to imply you were anything other than momentarily surprised... your good nature about it all is what I believe led to several other poisters being comfortable about 'outing' themselves at the old DC MB! You rock! Holt

I loves me some Terri Nunn too, but TMBA was my least fave song of theirs, and definitely led to the band's demise!

Also, like Lardy, my interaction with the LMB has helped give me some life experience in diversity that I've carried with me ever since. I've mentioned this a few times over the years, but at 18 years old, I had never really known anyone who wasn't strait before. Two major things happened: I had a bi-sexual roommate and I met the huge amount of gay posters who were my fellow LMBers. All these years later its become so second nature that I don't even think about it anymore. I always considered myself an ally (in fact, I believe I posted that exact thing 10 years ago pre-LMB on the DCMBs), and now I'm pretty pleased to know I've been just that for all these years. The pleasure has been all mine!

The Motels Anthology "Anthologyland" has their demo of TMBA. It's much better than Berlin's.

Re: The Lardy/Rocky relationship: There actually was some precedent for it: Clive and Time Teller Lad dated for several months before this. Lardy and I both had played romantic involvement with the other before. Now, it's well-known throughout the LW membership that Lardy is, in real life, a straight guy with a wife and kids and everything--and I've most certainly never kept my being gay a secret. Still, when it looked as though that was the direction the characters were going became obvious, I asked him to make sure. Next thing I knew, we naturally and organically grew this development into the mix.

How about that! wink

I think we were actually testing the waters a little with TTL and Clive. The big difference is that those were alts and this time it was the prime IDs. TTL was always gay, and Clive was a new consciousness just discovering himself. Lardy was notoriously heterosexual, though longtime posters may remember a thread in which I posited that the character of Lard Lad may in fact be open to all the possibilities. In that thread the angle I took it was more from a hedonistic standpoint, however, as opposed to romance.

I remember you asking me about the possibility of Clive and TTL, but I don't ever remember us talking about it with Lardy and Rocky. Are you sure we did, John? From what I recall, it more or less just happened as we both kind of pushed it there and played off each other.

The day I registered at the old DC Boards was the same day Lash posted the original Legion of Message Board Posters thread, so in a sense Loser Lad was 'born' the same day as the LMB. From the virtual Road Trips to Wizard World (I'm still pissed at Baby Booyah) and the CBR Boards to the actual road trips to Niagara Falls and Boston the LMB has been a big part of my life for the past 10 years. And even though I tend to disappear for...well...years at a time you guys have always been here for me when I need you most.

Thanks for all the laughs. You guys are the bestest.

I just checked. There was a vaguely-worded PM exchange before it happened. Otherwise, I guess it really did just happen organically. smile

I remember the Niagara trip: me, Pov, Cobie, Faraway and Gigglebot in the hotel lounge/bar, waiting for Lou, knowing him only by an email pic.

When we see him, there's no reaction to our calls of "Bill." As the likely candidate seems to be heading away from us, we all start calling out "Loser!"... earning a few odd looks from strangers, but finally catching his attention.

This was after Pov caused an international incident, of course.


The childhood friend Exnihil never had.

Boston, walking down the street next to Cobie, who had an inflatable sheep under his arm. The looks and comments we got were priceless.

Also in Boston, an "L" shaped dinner table, an Aussie Waitress, Qius, STU, and Miner keeping everyone rolling with laughter.

The first San Diego Trip, meeting Legion John, STU, and Kent in Vegas, the top of the Stratosphere Tower and STU wanting to ride the single most insane ride ever... I still have nightmares...

Meeting Gary, Kabir and the rest in San Diego, the lovely Caliente vamping every DC Writer or Artist she could latch onto, Kent and I talking Legion with Paul Levitz for a good half hour as the crowds swirled around us at the DC Booth.

The Second San Diego Trip, Rocky, CJ, Director Lad, Actor Lad, Seymour, Quis, Miner, Cobie, STU, Cali, Actor, Far, Jen, LL, SG, Gary, Kabir, Rhonda, Exhnil...

on and on and on...


Just an Old, Broke-Down, Drunk, Bum!!

Ah, another great thread worth revisiting! I'm certain there have been some pivotal LMBP/LW memories made in the seven-plus interim years...some wonderful, others incredibly sad.
