I’ve left Daily Kos as “Major Danby”; my GBCW from that account is here. It’s about time; that handle was going to keep on causing trouble for me, as people thought I was (or was pretending to be) former military, and the prospect of that becoming a campaign issue made settling it intolerable.
I’ll talk to buhdy about whether I will continue with that name here, when I’m here, or whether to switch entirely to a new account. (I’d like to be able to do the former and yet retain the ability to come back and use the latter when I have to prove to people that yes I do have a coveted low-two-digit ID.) While I have started a new account there (did some time ago, in fact, though I’ve scrupulously never used it) I’m going to lurk a DKos for the next three weeks, and possibly through next year’s elections, though knowing myself I highly doubt I’ll be able to withstand the urge to comment. I may or may not participate or lurk here while I have computer access, which may be sporadic.
With so many of my friends here, I just wanted to let you all what’s going on. (And the next person to call me “sir” has to clean the latrines.) Enjoy your weekend, everyone!

Greetings from Pampanga, where it’s hot as … as Manila!
in the world who doesn’t care about ID digits? LOL I care about content, not personality.
But hey, Major Danby, I’ve taken note, you sound like a player.
Let’s see, I was on the intertubes in the mid-1980s, thanks to my boyfriend, who is now my husband… that makes my number hmmmm…. a negative one?
Me and my non-important number say hello, whatever your name may be now, or in the future. @;-)
I used to be somebody at DKos until I lost my handle. Get over it. People will figure it out or ignore you. Achieve indifference to either outcome. Why don’t you start calling yourself Lieutenant Colonel Danby so that military reflex clowns will get pissed off you got promoted? Meanwhile….Mu!
