Absm.d Tribute - (a sort of "who's who" wrapped around a Paul Simon medley)
(I am certain to have missed some folks.  Sorry 'bout that!  Maybe next time<G>)

[after “Feelin’ Groovy”]
Slow down, you’re doin’ it too fast
You want to make your vinyl last.
Just take a tip and do it right
Listen to lamer and wowfabgroovy.
La la la la la lamer and wowfabgroovy.

[after “Sounds of Silence”]
Hello gutz and hdJim
I’ve come to talk with you again
Because a zbeba cluelessly posting
Dropped his load, and he needs roasting.
And the zbeba never had much of a brain
But he’ll complain
So you will have to toast him.

[after “Punky’s Dilemma]
Then there’s Longhair, Silly Savage, xian, (how do you pronounce it?), Xorys
And then there's DEGAUSSED, CA was in NJ, 
File Folder®, Ibizar, blue, Boddah, 7-1-1
Chalkillian and Turnkey
Dr. Memory's having his fun.

[after “Cecilia]
Bocephus, you’re bustin’ my chops
For only 200 megs daily
Oh, Cephus, I’m down on my knees
I’m beggin’, please leave me alone.
I’m on @Home.

[after “The Boxer”]
My Name and Harmonious have a story to be told
‘Long with Yummy, sats and Stewrat,
And Christoofar, and flyer, all the regulars.
They’re the best. Still a troll hears what he wants to hear 
And disregards the rest. M-m-m-m-m-m-m.

When I came to the discussion group I got answers there galore.
I learned many things from FAQ-Man 
And the follow-ups and threads have taught me oh, so well.
I learned from vu, learned from Mark (the one who shuns the trolls)
And doonie and durtro, too. Mmmmmm.

(chorus) lie-la-lie-la-lie-la-lie…

Then there’s Yummy, chase and Lowbridge and Len and NuQ and sats.
There’s The Judge, of course, and squishee, 
And good Reggie from Riverdale and tinky wink.
Chris Morse, now there’s our man, the developer of Power Post,
Now we’re his biggest fans, lie-la-lie-la-lie-la-lie

Instrumental

(chorus) lie-la-lie-la-lie-la-lie…

And we have JGB-9357, and Bud and Alberonn, Baby Huey now, Bill Clintonz, 
Bill Curran, dr. kinbot, there and JoJo Gunne, 
DualIP,  Lady BeBop, foxriders1, and me.

There’s GuitarMan and jamie, odl and repost_plz 
there @hotmail.com and scooter, 
And snarfdude, spot, and Tag, and Roj and Test Tickle
Of course you know g. I am sure that I've forgotten some
Who are in your memory.
Hmmm.

[after “Call Me Al”]
I'm no longer doggie, I am TLO now, pal.
Though I am on a higher plane now, I can’t help but sometimes growl. 

[after “Late in the Evening”]
I really don’t remember all these nyms that lived ‘round here
They most preceed me by a year or two.
But to our founding fathers we would like to pay respect.
To nyms from way back then as well as new.

Well, it is late on the newsgroups, and the nyms are passin’ through:

Well, there’s MadHatter, and ClassAct, and Steady, Rock & Roll, opw, Tanya, Dishy too
Denise, Piscies, c.y.a., Longhair, The "Boogie" Man, elMocambo, just to name a few.

Well, it is late on the newsgroups, and the nyms are passin’ through:

There is MC66, RarRBoot, hempcat, _Schwinn, Lone Victor, and N.K.,
NYC David, Daddy Freddy, Orpheus, ~Wolf, Taenus, Sucker, hey

It’s late on the newsgroups, and wonder where they are today.
