Your contributions are a balance between thoughtfulness and fun- you’re a great jelly! Congratulations, Cruiser! :D

Wow, congrats! Cruisin nice and smooth….!

Congratulations, Cruiser! Now, will you take us all for a spin in your awesome car?

Road trip with @Cruiser.

Holy Moley! Congrats of 30K! Now that you’re in the same league as me we can laugh at all the “sub-thirties” (That’s my name for them) together, as we are so much better than them.
Welcome, brother!

Must have been that 440 big block with nitro and Positraction rearend, good stuff, way to go.

Congratulations on reaching 30K. Stay humble, if you can.

Keep on Truckin’ Crusin’. Congrats on the 30K!

Holy smokes! How’d this happen so fast? Time to have some real fun! @tedibear thanks so much for throwing the party and time to go Cruisin

@rebbel thanks so much bro! Now 1..2..3..YELL

@Cruiser – you are more than welcome for your party! Your answers always make me either smile or think – sometimes both – and you deserve a great bash!

@Blueroses Thanks so much dear and since you are my favorite blue Jelly how about a whole group of Blue and snacks!.
@Fiddle_Playing_Creole_Bastard Thank you kind sir! I will let you play with this out back…make sure the smoke is down wind of the party!

I appreciate you stopping by @WestRiverrat and have a nice swim in the Green River

Congrats on the 30k! Awesome job!

May I offer you my very liberal congratulations? I promise not to be conservative in my praise of your humanity, your great and thoughtful parenting and the pleasure I take in your friendship. it’s great to share both Fluther and the country with you @Cruiser – a gentleman with whom I can agree to disagree.

Mazel Tov!

Nice work, Cruiser!

Congrats, Cruiser! :)

Hey now @Coloma easy does it with the pops stuff. Time to do your thang and get the party on a mello streak….

@tranquilsea Thank you! Can you say Poodle ? ;))

@ANef_is_Enuf You are good people too and I brought some old friends Enuff Z’Nuff to play you a song.

I got the bananas for the banana splits.

Oops.

Congrats @Cruiser. The only Jelly who knows my secret!

Congo Rats @Cruiser ! You have long deserved this!

Why are you here, @Cruiser, no matter what the honorific? You’re supposed to be outside coiling miles of bindweed, aren’t you?

Congratulations!

30K Congrats to my Fav FIB in Fluther! ;P

Yo @Cruiser! Congratulations! You’re a pretty awesome guy and super talented as well. Much love!

@Cruiser I nearly spit my water all over my computer! SO! What did she say to the dog???

Congrats!

@Cruiser Pfft, He’ll never make it.

Congratulations. How do you do that?

You are great Jelly too @Haleth but since I have no idea what a Haleth is…in the meantime you get a cute doggie

@mangeons thank you one again! You ever the trendsetter

Thanks @mazingerz88 you are ever the smooth operator yourself!

Congrats @Cruiser! You set the standard in the qualities I am looking for in a partner. I hope to meet someone as kind, sweet, honest and real as you. Cruise on in to the island and enjoy the party.

@augustlan I know there was a couple times I had the U-haul loaded up and ready to head back to shore…but you done an amazing job of keeping the waters calm here! I want to say thank you for all you do to make this a fun and respectable place to get crazy!! lol!

@Tropical_Willie Thank you sir always a nice tropical breeze with you around!

Congrats Cruiser! CHEERS! :)

Cruiser is my Fluther Hero!
Congratulations Cruiser!!!

@AstroChuck Thanks to the funniest 6 yr old in orbit I know!

That car is awesome @Hypocrisy_Central and just might make me abandon my plans for getting this beaut If only I could make out the phone number on that for sale sign!! ;)

Humble @Sunny2?? Can’t make me! But a little Humble Pie now and then is good for the soul!

@worriedguy Thanks old friend….you knew this was coming! :)

@Cruiser: Have a wonderful time but after you have recovered, @tranquilsea needs you to design a mini-Sherman tank for that dopey overdressed poodle.

Congratulations to one seriously awesome jelly! I always enjoy your intriguing questions and ever insightful answers!

@gailcalled Hahaha!

Congratulations!!!

Congratulations dude! You just keep on cruisn’ along, being you, and being awesome. :) I love how you just say stuff like it is, and don’t seem to be afraid to voice your thoughts and opinions. I always admire that. Cheers. :)

@tranquilsea needs you to design a mini-Sherman tank for that dopey overdressed poodle.

Oh, @Cruiser, I love ya man. You are a great guy and even better parent. Glad to see you at 30k!

Your secret is safe with me @Judi! ;)
Thanks @filmfann I know you want one

HS @gailcalled! I did and I did and I did! XD That plant is weird tough! Kind of creepy and I swear it pulled back at me! Thanks for helping out!

((Hugs)) @KateTheGreat Thanks kiddo!! Time to warm up some cold steel

@tranquilsea She said give me your dirty love

@tinyfaery Thanks for coming!

Time to hit the 88’s @XOIIO

@Cruiser Tons of hugs! Your link didn’t work though!

@KateTheGreat Here ya go

@josie I do it the only way I know….I do it my way

Welcome to one of the most romantic jellies to ever swim in these waters. For you sir, we have decorated the honeymoon/anniversary suite for you and your lovely wife to enjoy a carefree and fabulous vacation.

First, after you’ve taken a nice warm bath in the hot tub under the stars and slipped into your cushy soft robes and slippers, you will be whisked across the grounds in a horse drawn carriage where you will be taken to your quarters. Once upstairs, the rest of us Jellies will leave you alone for a couple of days. Your quarters will look like this and Andrea Bocelli will softly croon to you from below your window.

We have imported the finest Belgian chocolate and the most delicious Champagne for you to drink and we have left edible crayons for you to use as your imagination pleases.

Enjoy!

@Cruiser, thanks for so many very thoughtful answers and questions and kind words. You seem like a really nice person. Congratulations on your accomplishment here with the milestone 30,000, but more importantly, best wishes always for you in your real life.

@chyna <<Super blushes>> Kind words indeed! Can’t wait to see you land on the 30K island soon enough.

Hey there @Only138 Do you know this guy? ;)

@AshLeigh Thanks kiddo…tough to keep a cape dry in this tide pool!

@Hawaii_Jake Meeting you and getting to know you has been one of my greater pleasures here! A K-ass party would not be complete without some melancholy and Don Ho ;)

@AmWiser Thanks and Keep on Smilin ;)

Roll on, Cruiser! Congrats!

Félicitations, @Cruiser!

I promise not to tell everyone you only left the castle for the island to get away from [REDACTED].

@Cruiser, I’m sure every possible pun on your screen name has already been used, so I will just say congratulations. Your patience and perseverance are remarkable.

Well done!

Fluther’s princess has made it. teehee :D

Super congrats to you!

And to think I was just talkin’ to you a few days ago and didn’t even notice how close you were to 30K. Numbers are just not my thing. Kids yes. Numbers no :)

Congrats to you.

Good job buddy!

Way to go dude! Keep up the good work.

Congrats to the one and only @cruiser!

The dude who always has the best wheels, no wonder you made it to 30k so quickly!

How am I so late here??? Damn, boy, 30K? I know I helped a bit and except for one or two topics over which we would come to fisticuffs, I hit that damned GA again and again! Your kids are almost as lucky to have you as a parent as we are to have you as a Jelly! Take me for a ride!!!

:Back at ya”:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=57hr7–4dgmo&feature=related @chyna

@Adirondackwannabe Thanks for the wheels bro! Can’t get enough of Car songs

@gailcalled Can do! Have fun on this little ride I customized for you!

@SuperMouse Thanks for the kind words….Be careful of nuggets of cheese just laying around but I know you can take care of yourself! ;)

Welcome to the island, @Cruiser. I guess your cabana will have a damn big garage. The only highway on the island is only a mile long, but with some creative imagining, you could probably make it seem endless.

C,ongratulations dude!

Congratulations, Cruiser! You rolled in with your lights off while I was away; but I burned rubber to get to the party once I got the news. You’re a fave—many thanks for your presense here! Please drive carefully!

Thank you @shego Sometimes you just feel like a nut

@Symbeline Thank you! For my favorite Jelly Zombie ass kicker

@Kayak8 I have really enjoyed our conversations and here is a tune with a view for you!

@tranquilsea this is the best I can do for now! ;)

Thanks @DrBill Time for a check up

Congratulations! :)

Constratchumacation @Cruiser !!

@marinelife Thank you so much and here is a tune for my favorite Jelly scribe.

@KatawaGrey It has been a pleasure to get to know ya…here is a tune just because

Appliances are good for stacking things on @Hibernate Like pretty shiny shelves! Here is one of my favorites I hope you enjoy.

Thanks for staying up late @Coloma! Here is one more tune to keep the Bash going!

I have died and gone to heaven @Kardamom You paint quite the picture and I won’t ever want to leave! Must be Dreaming

Thanks @dappled_leaves Keep the airwaves full

Thanks @SavoirFaire I knew I could count on you and if you ever do spill the secret [REDACTED]

@ETpro I can say the same for you sir. We have known each others likes and dislikes for quite a long time now and do enjoy all our conversations. Here is a song in honor of your sons service

Thanks @bob_ Can I make you a BLT?

@jonsblond Thanks for the reminder there dear! XD Here is a tune for my favorite Jelly beer drinker and hell raiser

30k…..that is seriously nice! Great work and congratulations! Sorry I was late.

@Cruiser Congratulations! So well deserved, and I know you’d been thinking about moving for a while! ;-)

@Buttonstc I have thoroughly enjoyed our conversations as of late especially! Here is a tune I know you will appreciate

@zensky, Thank you sir and I always look forward to the new you!

Thanks @FutureMemory Lock and load

Thank you @rooeytoo To my favorite Jelly Down Under

@JilltheTooth I will be glad to take my favorite Jelly mom for a ride

Thank you @wundayatta! Here is a tune for the Jelly with by far the longest answers ever!

@picante Thank you very much and you get 2 songs Just because

@lucillelucillelucille Thank you for turning me on to Norah! ;)

Wow….you guys pulled an all nighter, break out the Bloody Marys for brunch!

Thanks sir! @erichw1504 To my favorite Jelly lunatic

Thanks @Bluefreedom! The heck with driving!

@harple Thank you so much. I saved one of my favorites for you

Cheers @Coloma

@Cruiser

Mmmm…those look so good!
Grey Goose, but of course, and pass the Grey Poupon while yer at it! ;-D

Congratulations, Cruiser.

@Cruiser: That little vehicle is perfect; color-coordinated, fringed like the poodle’s ears, also needing fresh water daily, plus an occasional trim. This alone will grant you a place in the Fluther Pantheon. And here’s a good way to start your day. Rock it

@tranquilsea; Ask nicely and see what happens? Poodles R Us

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

@Cruiser You are so sweet to give us presents!!! Thanks for the Aerosmith tune : )

@Cruiser Psst Plan on getting which, the woman, or the ride? Or just riding the woman? This is a 30k mansion man, I have been wondering around for hours, where is the full garage with car hoist, cherry picker, and fully rack of Craftsman tools? There is a Galaxy 500, a 55 Bellaire, a ’71 hemi Cuda, and a ’41 Ford Duce coup in need of some attention.

@Hypocrisy_Central If you’re in a mansion, you are so far from @Cruiser your cars are going to rust to nothing before you get into the same universe as he is. I’ll give you a hint: you can’t drive there.

I should just stop answering questions right now and stay at 9945 lurve. Especially these ones :(

@XOIIO ; I just gave you lurve. Must have maxed out on you though because it didn’t show up. You will be @10K tonight even if you DON“T answer any more questions.

@Judi Yeah, I think a few people are maxed out.

LOL I shouldh throw the party, nobody likes a biggot.

@gailcalled awesome!

Better late than never. Well done Cruiser, Congratulations!!! You have very thoughtful answers and the ones featuring your MIL are usually my favourite ;-)

Oh! I’m late!
I’m out of town but just had to stop in and say Congratulations to one of my very favorite guys here on Fluther!

Sorry I’m late honey, I was out buying you a new car. Although, I’m not sure that I should, after that horrible trick you played on me last week. Ah, hell, who am I kidding? I can’t stay mad at you. Want to come over later?

@Hypocrisy_Central You really have to ask?? I may be a Chevy guy but I can look! ;)

@wundayatta No but you can Waterskii there!!

@wilma Thanks dear! I saved you some cake and brownies for your return and a tune just for you!.

@WillWorkForChocolate Better late than never and after we have this cake I am sure I will have a second wind to come over later!! ;)

@Cruiser – that’s a good version of down under. There is an aboriginal band called Nabarlek who does a version with different lyrics. It is good too! I searched high and low for a site that has it so you could hear but it only appears to be in iTunes. When you have time, have a listen to the sample or check them out on myspace. They have a great sound. Some good vids of them on youtube also. (Just none of them doing Down Under)

Cheery matey!

@Cruiser I dunno if I could actually eat a boobie cake… lol.

@WillWorkForChocolate I know what you mean that one looked too good to eat! ;)

@rooeytoo I did find this collaboration that may interest you!

Don’t wanna ruin a party, but what happened to Cruiser’s profile? His account is gone. :(

WTF???

@Symbeline Gasp! Was it a “Zenduction!?”

;)

So you’re a dental floss tycoon? And now you’re gone again. This is getting scary…

@Blueroses Don’t be afraid….be happy!

How did he do that ^^^^???

I’m guessing he disabled his account, but hasn’t cleared his cache.

It’s like a horror movie. Nobody go in the basement.

WTF is going on here? Who leaves during such a great party? I’m so confused

Congratulations, @Cruiser – if you’re still here, that is. I’m confuzzled at this one… I know I’m really late to the party, but that’s no reason to leave Fluther!

Oh, @Seelix , what did you do?

@JilltheTooth – I dunno… Maybe it was my internal admission that I have always had a little crush on @Cruiser. I’m older than I look, I swear! There’s no need to [REDACTED].

WTF? Where’d he go?

I finally made myself go to bed last night…Now I see I haven’t missed @Cruiser‘s 2nd coming

Who have you decided to become @Cruiser?

As usual I’m late to the party but you have my congratulations! Your posts have been some of my favorites in fluther.

I raise my glass to crossing paths, again.

l’chaim!

@Cruiser Will be missed :(

Can someone tell me that he isn’t gone? ... please?

@wilma has been pm’d

Is he going to Montana? Does he have prostate cancer? Is he going on the road to perform his works of classical music? Is he being enigmatic to see who notices? Oh what fun!

Maybe he just wanted to hit the big 30 and then depart while still on top?????

Really makes you rethink this question.

@SavoirFaire It kind of does, although from what I understand, the reason for departure was a pretty recent thing.

I quit for a few months after I hit 20K. Some times you just need to get back into the real world.

Dammit! This celebration is turning into a wake. Cruser’s spirit wants us to celebrate his life here.

Is there any booze left?

I’ve got Captain Morgan, Jameson’s and Gentleman Jack. Pick your poison.

—well, bust it out @WillWorkForChocolate! Pour us a round and let’s toast:

“To Cruiser – not forgotten!”

I’ll have some of that Captain straight up.
*clink * To the cruiseman.
Thanks Choccygirl, spatzie and blueroses.
sniff

Oh, for heaven’s sake, he just emailed me and said it was OK to say this. He’s very busy with a new business and a couple of young teenagers and we’re all just too darned interesting to stay away from, so he had to amputate us. ow ow ow
BTW, those are my words, not his

Oh thank heaven! I was beginning to feel like I had thrown a wake and not a party! It was about to put me off ever entertaining on Fluther again!

I figured he was too busy with real life.

Come back soon, Cruise!

Yep, yep, everything’s fine, nothing happened. Cruiser just needs to do what Cruiser needs to do. He may or may not be back eventually, but we’ll certainly miss him.

<raises glass> To a fine, fan man. May he travel safely down that road until we meet again!

Happy trails, @Cruiser. Have a good ride, and come back safely when you’re ready.

@WillWorkForChocolate That was cool. I’ll raise my glass to that. :)

@Symbeline Thanks, I really am going to miss his voice here. I have alternative means of communication, but it still won’t be the same without him here. He was one of the most friendly, agreeable, down to earth jellies and he had a very comforting presence. =0)

Okay, okay, I’m done being sad. Let’s keep the party going and entice Auggie to break out her whip!

Pancakes anyone?

Congrats @Cruiser :-)

@stardust thank you!

Good gracious…Pick already

What the???

Maybe the home computer was still logged on?

I don’t think that was really Cruiser.

@Jeruba his name is taken…so how would someone else come in as him? He’s done this a few times here and on other threads now

he’s messing with our miiinnds!

He won’t be able to any more.

@augustlan that sounds rather ominuous

Ha, I guess it does! I just meant I’d corrected the issue that was allowing him to post after his account was disabled. :p

Now back as @CruiserCruiser with a serious question

Vroom! ;)

Oh dear God, man! Make up your mind! lol

someone shined his car =)

I’m really glad you’re back @Cruiser.

^^ what she said
