It’s been real…and it’s been fun.

Thank you, PoPvillians, for allowing me to be your Lord of Petworth for the past two days.

The photo above is homage to the commenter, who upon learning I would be minding PoPville for a few days, commented, “Great…excretory humor and ‘junk punch’ jokes.”

Okay, so I admit I had to look up what “junk punch” meant. As for as the aforementioned “scatological humor”–okay, so I did nix one post that had a prominent poo mention, but I think I have been, otherwise, tastefully restrained.

So, from your comments on my posts, what have I learned?

Well…I learned that you really love the Prince and miss him when he is gone. (I’m sure that reading my ramblings just made it worse–sorry.) That makes total sense. I’m quite fond of him too.

I’m sure I’ll be back here again occaisionally, whenever I have some lame, half-baked hypothetical or infuriating stupid observation about life in our fair city. Until then, you can always find me on my web site and on Twitter (@ericnuzum).

Have a great weekend, folks. The Prince will be back on his throne Monday morning.

(Oh, and in case you are curious, the “Guess Poo” game above is a mock-up, created by some dude for his 9-year-old nephew. More info on his game here.)
