Who is Webb Diego? Is this a fictional character someone created in this forum? Can someone catch me up? Did someone already explain this to me in another thread? Am I having another senior moment???

There were a whole passle of Diegos on the 50+ forum. They were created as obnoxious alter egos by several regulars. Someone complained and they (the Diegos) were banned under the rule that you can't have more than one log-in name. Some of us found them entertaining, some found them annoying.

- Beany and Cecil
Come go sailing
We've waited long enough
For Beany and Cecil Dishonest John and Captain Huffenpuff.
It's time for adventure
Hot Dog, some fun. Oh Joy
With Cecil the seasick sea serpent
And good old Beany
Boy, boy, boy, boy, boy.

Lovable, gullible, armless, harmless, ten foot tall and wet.
Cecil the seasick serpent
Created by Bob Clampett.
So come on kids, let's flip our lids
Higher than the moon
Cause now here's Beany and Cecil in (spoken) a whole half hour
Bob Clampett Cartoon.

Prunes no longer exist in my grocery store. They are now "dried plums."

Smirnoff Vodka..the bill-boards :" Smirnoff,it leaves you breathless".. a not so suttle hint that it suited a three martini lunch better than gin did.
