Celerate! Jesus, Celebrate!Posted by Rick on July 25th, 2003
Today marks one and a half years since Rachel and I began our lovely relationship. To celebrate, I will do what all bloggers do:
Regretfully they tell us,
But firmly they compel us
To say goodby to you.
So long, farewell, Auf wiedersehn, good night,
I hate to go and leave this pretty sight.
So long, farewell, Auf wiedersehn, adieu,
Adieu, adieu, to yieu and yieu and yieu.
So long, farewell, Au’voir, auf wiedersehn,
I’d like to stay and taste my first champagne
So long, farewell, Auf wiedersehn, goodbye,
I leave and heave a sigh and say goodbye,
Good bye
I’m glad to go,
I cannot tell a lie.
I flit, I float,
I fleetly flee, I fly.
The sun has gone to bed and so must I
So long, farewell, auf wiedersehn, goodbye,
Goodbye,
Goodbye,
Goodbye!

you will attempt to find a life? or will your pour more accolades of pseudo-academics upon yourself? Be more specific about what you’re doing that all bloggers do!

Bah. You’ve virtually been missing the past few months… You just finally got around to saying goodbye.
Silly Rick.

Take care, Rick. Hope to see you around elsewhere and hope you’ll pop back into blogdom sometime if the mood strikes.
July 25th, 2003 at 3:02 pm
Oh, and congrats to you and Rachel on 18 months. Hope you’ll soon be able to arrange something more permanent. :^)

This is not fair
It’s a conspiracy, and I don’t like it one bit! Davey H and G Grant got me started in the blogging thing, and now everyone’s quitting – Tim E, Sarah G, Kristen K(?), and now you.
Well, I want you to know you’re ot going to hurt my feelings one bit. No, No, No.
I will miss you, Rick. I have enjoyed visiting your site each day to see what’s up in your life.
Best wishes to you and Rachel.

NO! At least I can still call and bother you, but I liked your blog! (And I am not quitting, I am going to merge with Michael and co-blog.)

Have a nice break.
I hope this doesn’t finish Rachel’s blogging career

Congratulations!!
This is the first time that I’ve been to this blog (I followed the link from Pieter’s web page here. I am current guest blogging at his Deux Ego site. (My blog is here.) This looks like a great site, and keep up the good work!

By the way, the title of this post is rather odd. The punctuation implies that you are commanding Jesus to celebrate. If you are trying to quote the title of that (highly loathed) worship song, wouldn’t it be “Celebrate Jesus! Celebrate!”?

Unless I was shutting my blog down because of complaints that my posts were sinful…

If anyone is interested, I’m not leaving.
Hey, I just started this thang.
July 29th, 2003 at 7:19 am
Sorry to see ya go Rick, but you’ve got alot of other things to do, that’s for sure. I’ll ttys man.

Wow! Stop the Presses! I just heard the News. Godspeed in all of your future endeavors as you seek to glorify Him.
