Yup.
Van Harte Gefeliciteerd and Congratulations, guy!

Congrats to a great guy!

Felicitations, @worriedguy! Now that you are in the castle, may the gentle sound of the moat’s waters ease your mind!

Well Done!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Congrats @worriedguy!!!! I frost my cupcake in your honor!!

Congratulations, @worriedguy! I blow many confetti-filled party noisemakers in your honor.

Where’s my beard bitch at?

Congrats!!!! :)

Here it is! Happy 20K! Now you have to tell us all the story behinf your user name.

Yay! Congrats to the formerly worriedguy, whose 20k present from me is a new username: LuckyGuy!

Great name change. I have been thinking of changing mine too…

Congrats big guy!

@rebbel Dank u Zeer!

Oooo… I just started to thank everyone and saw the above message from @augustlan. It’s clear an explanation is in order. I joined here a couple of months after I found out I had a very high PSA. Guys, if yo are over 40 you should know what that is. I was over 50 and never heard of it. I was in perfect health, no pains, all my parts met or exceeded engineering specifications and performance.
Due to a change in insurance I was required to have a physical. Everything was perfect except for the PSA (prostate specific antigen). It indicated I had prostate cancer. What? Not me! Everything works! No pains, no leaks, no errors! A repeat test was even higher. The followuo up biopsy was even worse. I was a worried guy.
I came here to find out about having robotic surgery done by a young surgeon or open surgery by a very experienced older surgeon.
I decided to have a younger doc do the job with the robot. The rest is history.
My PSA is Zero.
I was lucky to have the first PSA test when I did. I was lucky the cells were still encapsulated. I was lucky the surgeon got it all. I am one very lucky guy.

Yay! Congrats to the artist formerly known as “worried guy”!

Crap, @augustlan , you’ve just screwed up my alphabetized Fluther.
@LuckyGuy : What happened there, fella? Your post got…er…a little funny…

I am so glad that you changed your user name. You are a great part of the collective: wise, caring, and funny! Congratulations, not-so-worried guy!

Congrats to a lucky @LuckyGuy!

(Did I miss out on what made you go from worried to lucky? Have you gotten lucky lately?)

Now my post looks silly, but as one survivor of the…er…nether cancers, I’m awfully glad you’re a Luckyguy, now!

@LuckyGuy : Congratulations and thanks for being part of the collective.

@jonsblond Thank you! May you enjoy your new digs.
@SavoirFaire Good idea. I will leave the windows open so I can hear the sound of the moat waves.
@Lightlyseared Thanks! You are a rare breed.
@Cupcake Delicious idea. I’ll gladly share them with all my friends.
@bobbinhood Thanks! I’ve only been here for a few minutes and already i have to clean up the confetti mess.
@Jude Ahh… Jude… I’m right here when you need me. And now you know my secret – I’m doubley safe
@Judi I hope that answered your question. Is that a ray of sunshine I feel or is it your beaming, enthusiastic smile?

Congrats @LuckyGuy! Glad to know that you’re not worried anymore, thanks for being such a great member of the collective! :-)

Congratulations to a long time friend and a wonderful jelly. I love the new name!

@augustlan Thank you for the precious gift – your being here when we need you. Oh, and thanks for the name change too! I feel so lucky.
@zensky Thank you! I always enjoy your Q&As. If you change your name, how will we ever find you?
@TheIntern55 Thanks! I’m going to party like it’s 1999!
@JilltheTooth I’ll see you around the mansion. I hope our banter does not traumatize your family member.
@marinelife Thank you. I am only plankton compared to you. Yes, 6 months after my surgery the worriedguy name didn’t fit me but it stuck so….

Congrats, @LuckyGuy ! You’re a truly valuable resource to the community.

Don’t worry – it always has zen in it – and I keep the Picard a la Bob_ avatar. I’m just glad you’re healthy, dude.

@Hawaii_Jake And thank you for being here. We’ve learned more from you than you’ll ever know.
@mangeons Thank you for being so good a certain family member can be here. Do me a favor and hug your mom for me! She deserves it.
@ANef_is_Enuf Oh Neffie. It’s always a pleasure to see your Qs and As. We’re always on the same wavelength – except for the subjects of chocolates and tattoos.
@cockswain Thanks. May all your chemical processes flow bubble free. Keep the technical stuff coming.

I bow humbly in congatulatory fashion.

I raise my IEEE stein in your direction!!!!

π for everyone!

@zensky I knew the zen/Picard trick. Thanks again. Hey wasn’t it our Uncle Morris who used to say: “If you’ve got your health, you have everything.” ? Get your PSA checked.
@blueiiznh Thanks for bringing dessert. If you’re cutting, I’ll have half a radian’s worth please.

Dude! I love you!

Now git on out west for a little pre-party shindig at the Ponderosa.
We’ve got time for a trail ride and a couple o’ beers before driving you back to the airport for tonights main event.

Yee Haw…home on the 20k ranch!

Wow. Best wishes! With your name change, I can stop worrying about you! And you have a new roof over your head as well! Terrific.

From worriedguy to luckyguy. Inspiring! I’d double your 20K if I could, you being one of the really unassuming yet pleasing jelly around. ( in other words, cool ) It makes my frequent escapes from Hades into this world worth the trouble. Uh oh here comes my demon chasers…gotta go!

Oy Boychick – a madeleh goes out to dinner with a friend and misses the simcha of the year. Besides being one of the biggest sweethearts on Fluther, you are a mensch and a shadchan of the highest order – even if your matchmaking doesn’t quite work out. It is a pleasure to be a landsman of yours and the last thing I have to say is:

MAZEL TOV!!!

Congrats Lucky Guy! For the wisdom, the hope and the LURVE

CONGRATULATIONS!!! You are a favorite jelly of mine. Thank you so much for being here. I love your answers and find you to be intelligent and pleasant at the same time.

well met @LuckyGuy, well met :)

C O N G R A T U L A T I O N S !

I wasn’t worried, I just knew you’d make it to the mansion ; )
Moocho-grats wg!!

Fantastic! Congratualations! I always look forward to reading your answers. :)

CONGRATULATIONS TO ONE GREAT GUY, WHO’S NOW A LUCKIER GUY THAN ME BECAUSE HE’S IN THE 20K CLUB!!!
(and who’s always “stylin” cause he knows the importance of lookin’ good!)

CONGRATS MY FRIEND!!!! :—-]

You know, @LuckyGuy , you might want to find a less worried looking guy as your avatar… Just sayin’.

@Coloma I really appreciate the offer. One of these days I’ll make a cross country tour and swing by. We’ll shoot zucchini and blow up pumpkins with hollow points out back and… Oh… wait… Never mind… We’ll enjoy the sunshine out back.
@Sunny2 I’ve stopped worrying. Now you can too. And these new digs are nice. There’s no snow blowing in around the windows.
@mazingerz88 It’s my pleasure to lift you from the hot spot. PM me if you need someone to watch your back.
@janbb Oy Dahlink, Finally I’m moving out into a neighborhood that understands investments and estate planning. By the way I saw Selma at the Bar Mitzvah and she look gawjeeous. She got rid of the bum – like you suggested. You were right. He was no good for her.
@jazmina88 Thanks! You had me at the answer you gave about bouncing off boobs. I think about it quite frequently too.
@tedibear Thanks for the compliment: “Intelligent and pleasant”. Actually, I was hoping to be wanted for my physique.

Wait…what? “Intelligent and pleasant?” I thought it was all about the abs!

Yay good job guy. I’m bouncing around trying to place the name and figure out why I follow you and shazam. It makes sense now.

Congratulations!

@fundevogel Thank you. I smile every time I see your avatar. Magnificent indeed.
@digitalimpression I like your style – always a straight answer flavored with a bit of wiseassery. I’ve been known to do the same.
@EnchantingEla We’re a perfect match. My toilet paper goes over the top too.
@JLeslie Your discussions are always so thought provoking. Everyone learns something.
@MRSHINYSHOES I am confident you bring class anywhere you go. When in a group you are guy that brings the crowd up – not down to the lowest level. I’d be honored to go out anywhere with you. I’ll see you around the mansion soon.
@JilltheTooth I’ll pick a smiling avatar in a bit. People still need to know it’s me, right?
@Adirondackwannabe Yep! That’s me. I ate so much red meat I grew another prostate and changed my name. Hey, break out the snow shovels. We’re getting the white stuff tonight!
@syz Short and sweet! Nice! Love your travel list. Some day we should compare notes.

@LuckyGuy Walking through four inches already.

@Adirondackwannabe : We had about four flakes. That’s enough, thank you.

Don’t worry, have TWENTY! Congratulations!!

Wow – not only do we get to celebrate but get the fantastic back-story behind your previous name. Super Cool.

Congratulations to you, the artist-formerly-known-as-Worried-Guy!!
Much lurve and continued good health to you!

Con-Grats I knew you build it !

Congratulations! So well deserved and lurve the name change.

Congo Rats to a very lucky guy!
Let’s take the town and burn it down!

Congrats Lucky!

Sorry to be so late. Fabulous work @LuckyGuy. I think we are the lucky ones for having you here with us. I like the new name much better than the old one too.

Lurve changes lives I tell ya.
From WorriedGuy to MildlyConcernedGuy to SlightlyOptimisticGuy to @LuckyGuy – you have improved with age.

Congratulations to one of the greats!

@dappled_leaves I’ll take 20 kW FM please. I hope some day you will honor us with the back story to your 5kW and a dream. I’ll be waiting breathlessly in the ham shack
@geeky_mama Arigatou. Omoshioi deshoka? Ima boku wa genki. Zembu genki. Okagesamade.
@Tropical_Willie You’re alway right to the point. Yep, I can build anything. Thanks.
@AmWiser Thank you I know I’m a lot wiser from your post about what the other sex does not get. All these years I thought an empty space was like a wine glass waiting to be filed. Nature abhors a vacuum.
@filmfann Thanks! You bring the gas, I’ll bring the matches and we’ll party. On second thought let’s just watch some Apocalypse flick from Netflix on the 62 inch .
@FutureMemory Thnaks! And may your underwear always be clean. Loved that one. ;-)
@Bellatrix Gosh I’m blushing here. You are too kind. That’s not unexpected from one of the brightest stars around.
@cprevite Like cheddar cheese and fine wine, some things just get better with age. Do you have any tips for finding where they hide the chocolate chips around here?

@LuckyGuy @cprevite always knows how to get chocolate chip cookies from me.

@LuckyGuy Happy 20K day (for yesterday!) I have made a cake. If you want some you will have to come to Wales. Not sure if its worth being in Wales for mind… Congratulations though!

@LuckyGuy – Okay, you have a great ass. Feel better? :P

@janbb I will watch and learn from the master.
@bongo Ah Lady, Thank yer reeight much. Um day ah meight be ‘eadin i’ thy direction. Please sev eur piece o’ cake fer mei.
@tedibear Yep. You just found the real way to a man’s heart.

Oh lovely, lucsious @LuckyGuy
No longer worried, no longer shy
On this fine day I wish you joy
Our fabulously gifted wonder-boy!

To a Dream of a Lucky Guy: All My Congrats!

So dude, did you have a big bowl of Lucky Charms for breakfast this morning?
Yellow moons, pink stars, green clovers….lots of processed flour and sugar…no biggie, your brain is far to well “engineered” to be effected by the Twinkie defense. lol

@LuckyGuy : Sugoi! Nihongo jouzu ni narimashita! Kochira koso—minna genki desu!

Don’t worry, be lucky! Congrats man!

Congrats!

You’re one of my favourites on here :)
Congrats @Worried @LuckyGuy!!!

I don’t believe in luck. I believe it was pure skill that got you this far. Congratulations.

Congrats on the impressive achievement, hombre!

Many Congrats ₩orried turned Lu€K¥ Guy!!!
Happy 20K!!!

…....................MMMMM
You are very…..(..$.....$..)
............................__
!

Oh no! I go out of town for 2 days and miss this fabulous party! I am so glad you changed your name to Luckyguy as it suits you better.
Congratulations to a very wonderful, thoughtful, kind, intelligent guy. We are lucky to have you here.

@harple A PSA so high it’s sucky; turned out to be so G-D lucky! Thanks!
@Aster To sleep, perchance too dream – ay there’s the rub. Here’s a hug for you. (((U))) Sleep tight.
@Coloma I’m pretty sure that Leprechaun left his pot of gold right in your neighborhood. I do belive it’s in front of your monitor right now!
@geeky_mama Nihongo dekimasu yo. Yappari, kimi mo. Bikkurishtia! Ja mata ne!
@WillWorkForChocolate Thanks for the well wishes. I’d gladly split my Toblerone with you any day.
@tinyfaery Always with the lips! Thank you! I still remember the stripped ones. Like candy.
@MilkyWay Your avatar is picture of me when I found out how lucky I really was. Thanks!
@bkcunningham Thanks! I can’t take credit for the outcome. However, I will accept credit for taking the gamble. “I was once told by a doctor – You are either the bravest person I know – or the dumbest.” Honest!
@MissAnthrope Thanks for the well wishes. Hey, do you know where they keep the zip ties around here? I can use a couple.
@prasad Thank you for being such a great communicator. I get it.
@chyna You are are so sweet, I’m blushing. Hey, since you arrived late I think we shold have our own special party.

Sure! Why do you think you have the new name LuckyGuy?

Can I watch?

I want to join in!

Why he’s now called “LuckyGuy”.

Oh boy! Now this is a celebration! I’ll adjust my meds for a 3 hour duration. Hopefully, that will be long enough. I’d hate to end up in the emergency room sitting with an ice pack twixt my thighs.

A “three hour tour”, huh? Are we talking about the Minnow, here???

Feel free to suspend my internet privileges at any time, I obviously need to be grounded.

This is @LuckyGuy‘s party. He gets to do anything he wants to do.

OK, he can punish me if he wants… ;-)

3 hours – and there’s no mess! How cool is that?!

You’ve never had a piece of tush until you’ve had a frozen piece of tush!

^I can’t compete with a frozen tush!

Wait’ll you hit 30K, @LuckyGuy , you can change your name to “SatedGuy”.

@chyna Nobody can!

I wonder if a frozen tush has the same effect as an icepack…

For the sake of science we may have to experiment.

Is it getting hot in here?

and the party is still going on hot frozen tushes….eeek

It is on this end. Do I detect melting ice over there or is that merely the effect of global warming?

I love it when loud parties morph into whispers… makes me feel like something naughty is going to happen.

or is happening as we whisper

oh yeah

Oh yeah, baby.

I think luckyguy went off to get his meds.

All I know is he mentioned Twix between his thighs, and it’s got me all excited.

Silly Chocolate, Twix are for kids.

did you say tricks between your thighs or twix between your…..oh same thing…

it’s definitely hot in here.

I’m melting, I’m melting. Save the frozen tush!

save the penguins, save the frozen tush? what a campaign!

I think we’re onto a winner. Why didn’t Al Gore think of this?

I think he was distracted by the melting twix (errr glaciers)

craving a damned twix bar now

Hey @blueiiznh, I heard there’s twix between @LuckyGuy‘s thighs… if you’re into that sort of thing…

hey @WillWorkForChocolate i said twix not…....

Congrats @Worriedguy, hope your worries get erased in your new poolside party atmosphere.

@blueiiznh, @chyna, @janbb, @WillWorkForChocolate OK, I’m out of the shower. I needed it after all that, um, activity.
@smilingheart1 Thank you! Yes, I feel my worries are over – except for one thing…. Did you ever get your ring off?

I gotta stop going to bed so early.

@JilltheTooth It helps if you get up in the middle of the night to throw a log or two on the fire (and to pee).

@LuckyGuy I think I know more about your bodily functions than I used to know about my exe’s. Just sayin’

Virtual intimacy, all the benefits without bad breath…(well, maybe not all)

oh jeez. I leave for 10 minutes and you guys start melting your asses. I can’t turn my back, can I?

@TheIntern55 All I’ll say about is there were 5 exhausted jellies sleeping very soundly last night—- and this morning.
Anyone have an extra ice pack?

@LuckyGuy Sorry I’m sitting on mine.

I always look forward to your posts and I’m happy that you’ve changed your ID from @worriedguy to @LuckyGuy. That is really good news about your surgery!

Congrats on 20K :-)

@tranquilsea Thanks! I lucked out on that. Worried no more, I’m just floating in a sea of tranquility. Thanks!

I arrive late, but bearing an armload of sincere congratulations. You deserve the lurve!

@Blueroses Oh -did you miss an orgy – err, good party!

@Blueroses Thanks for the armload of mystery, enchantment and a sense of the impossible congrats.
Next time we’ll book a room.

@janbb Shhh… Don’t let everyone know. They’ll all want to be in on it next time.
One man can only accomplish so much in 3 hours.

<sigh>

@LuckyGuy True – but he done good. (shakes frozen tailfeathers)

what stamina seeing you guys are still at it. party on

I think @LuckyGuy gets help.

From a little blue pill?

@chyna Nah, that’s kid’s stuff.

the help is in the power (and placement) of the “twix bar”

Now you’re talking. It’s all about the partner. That’‘s why Twix bars come in pairs.

I love twix bars.

There is always the new Fling Bar from MARS Candy

<covers eyes> i feel another orgy about to happen… ; )

Sorry to be so late. Been out and about and working and slaving away and stuff, but this is one party that I would not like to miss. @worriedguy or @LuckyGuy as he is now known as, is one good egg, a partner in crime, a doer of good deeds, a thinker of good thoughts, an eater of great foods and a teacher of intelligent ideas. He’s also a mensch.

And where does a good mesnsch want to spend his winter vacation? At an awesome Florida hotel (only set on the Fluther mansion grounds). This is what I came up with. I hope he likes.

And for dinner we’ll be serving matzo ball soup, brisket and kugel. Oy, I just hope that @JLeslie remembers to bring the Manishevitz or we’ll all be dying of thirst.

Can I throw a good party or what??? @LuckyGuy is going to be @Deadguy if we keep this up…

@EnchantingEla You don’t have to avert your eyes. Everyone is using protection.
@JilltheTooth You sure can. My teetha re brushed, I’m all showered and shaved.

In case anyone needs a recharge, here…
Close your eyes. ... ok, you may peek for a second so you can finish reading. ... Now take that Twix bar, break it in half. and put it on your tongue. Don’t bite… just let it melt. Hold it…resist the temptation to crush it…just hold and let it warm. Feel it on your tongue and the roof of your mouth…
Hold it just a little longer so the chocolate spreads and the taste increases…
OK, now you may eat it. There’s another piece left. Think… how would you like to consume that one?

@Kardamom Thank you for your compliments. I’m not sure, but that might be the shortest comment I’ve ever seen you write. I’m flattered.
I like the new digs. But of course, Cousin Shelly, the dentist, has an even bigger place. His mother is kvelling while such high taxes he has to suffer. Oy. His life is full of such problems, what with the estate tax he had to pay from his Uncle Jack’s settlement. Then he and Sarah had to hire a Gap Year Consultant to decide the best place to send Joshua after he graduated high school. So many troubles…
But, hey, if you have your health you have everything. Am I right?
I think I’ll sit by the shore for a bit and collect a prudent dose of UV radiation.

hee hee hee “Gap Year Consultant”... hee hee hee

She’s the very best Boca has to offer. She also recommended a little revision rhinoplasty to fix his deviated septum and legally changing his name to Josh.
Anything for our children. They bring such nachas, am I right?

I like coming in pairs just like the Twix bars. Just sayin’. And I am in the library at work! Better go sit in the fridge for a bit.

I do believe my Twix bar is melting. I wonder if the Fling Bar can stand the heat.

<< Had a white chocolate Twix bar last night. Oh, ohh, OHHH! <lights a cigarette>

This is quite the party – I must say!

First time since June I’ve regretted quitting smoking…

I’m not even a big fan of chocolate and I can’t seem to stop thinking of Twix now.

I just took up smoking last night.

@chyna Is that what you call it? Smoking?

Hey am I going blind for some reason or is the print getting smaller and smaller here?

@janbb Your mama told you you’d go blind if you didn’t stop playing with it.

And with these short flippers, it ain’t so easy to reach!

Note to self: Do not have soda at lunch time!

Best damn party EVAH!!!!

I prefer steaming to smoking. Smoking weakens the taste buds and diminishes the full sensory experience. It prevents one from giving their partner, and the chocolate, the full attention they deserve.

I still have the other half of my Twix. Anyone?

Well, I believe this party is just getting started.
Gimme that candy boy, and watch it melt!

O @LuckyGuy You are wearing me out! But that’s ok!

Go for it @TheIntern55. I’m exhausted and need a break.

nom nom nom…

wow tag teaming is in play now

I know it is supposed to be “like being 19 again – only without the stupid.” but. frankly, I’m getting worn out.
Give me about an hour so I can pick up a box of See’s and an 8 pack of AAs.

Best. Party. Ever.
Anyone need a wet-wipe?

Sure, I’ll take one. Ouch! That stings!!!

Why do we need wet-wipes? Did I miss the hot wings?

@TheIntern55 They were on me.

OMG I just spewed my drink on my computer screen!

@chyna : You do that a lot. You need some lessons in lip control. I’m sure @LuckyGuy would be willing to instruct you…

I was a busy boy today – had to do some paying work. I’m glad to see things are moving right along. Hot wings, lip control and plenty of pulchritude. Count me in.

Lip control, huh….
That could be easily misinterpreted.

Hey @LuckyGuy It’s the weekend now. Up for more “partying?”

@janbb My goodness! You’re like the Energizer Penguin! A very attractivie trait!
Unfortunately this morning I will doing something almost as exciting. Something arousing…something to look forward to in the morning and the evening… something so stimulating my hands will shake and my ears will ring… Something smooth in red and black…. I’m buying a 30 inch TroyBilt snowblower. It comes with power steering and heated handles. Ooooo.. Gotta’ run, I need to change my underwear!
@TheIntern55 There’s only one way to interpret that. the intended way.

You and you machines!

@janbb You got dumped for a Troybilt.

@LuckyGuy Use protection.

After last winter, I am deeply aroused by @LuckyGuy ‘s post…

—“deeply aroused by @LuckyGuy ‘s post”—- hahahaha

@janbb : I wish I could take credit for doing that on purpose! But, alas, no.

I got it home and am quivering in anticipation! Here it is!

See those red handles? They’re 5½ inches long, 1½ inches in diameter and are heated! Run the engine and I’ll bet they vibrate too.
I’m thinkin’ 4 way here…

@chyna The machine, while nice, fills a different need. Nothing can compete with a soft touch and the warmth of body heat.

@TheIntern55 For sure, we’ll all use protection.

Ooh @LuckyGuy – You can blow my snow any time. And you know I like a lot of snow!

Holy bloody cow. I am flushed and aquiver.

Is this party turning into an orgy because of a…..snowblower?

If you lived in the NE US last winter you’d know why…

Trust me, I live in Connecticut. We were going to buy a plow for our tractor but my mom said no. Then, when we were shoveling one day, we asked what she thought about the plow idea now. That was the scariest look I have ever recieved. Not a good time to bring it up.

@LuckyGuy And when you are done blowing @janbb‘s snow, come blow mine. What a beautiful machine!

@TheIntern55 : CT here, too. I sure wish I’d had @LuckyGuy ‘s gorgeous machine last Dec 26! And Jan 12, and… and… and…

Wait! Wait! Wait! Just to be clear… Do you want the machine for its snow removal capabilities of the two 5½ inch long x 1 1//2 diameter heated hand grips?

Yes.

^^
Arrgh. I meant to write “or” not “of”. That totally changed the meaning.

I’m starting to feel like a voyeur as I still seem to be following this question! Eek! ;-)

@LuckyGuy : I knew that. The answer is still yes.

@LuckyGuy I’ll take it for the heated hand grips.

heated hand grips? do you people ever sleep?! LOL

I have a new found meaning to heated hand grips

Does anyone else find the hand grip dimensions of 5½ inches of lengh and girth a bit of a coincidence?

Don’t forget the Joystick that moves in all directions.
This snowblower is so powerful. Last year we had 48 inches of snow in the month of December. This year we have had less than a inch and it looks like we will set a new record low. Powerful indeed!

Ahhh! I’m sorry it took so long to find this! I was eating a cookie.
Congratulations @LuckyGuy! W00T!!

Your snow-blower mojo seems to extend to us, too. Please keep it up.
And yes, I just got the pun. And no, it wasn’t deliberate. Wish it had been.

@Dutchess_III That must’ve been a big cookie.

Thanks to @anartist, ! finally got around to changing my avatar so it matches my new name.
I think this is much better.
