Mikelom's death is the course for a lot of postive posts and people are recommending those.

A moving moment in the more cynical world of forums!

Now we have not a single GF-thread on page one, the recommended list is dominated by "Spirituality" a good sign?

one GF post, one Chess only, rest debates and few spirituality.

Seems like the discussions on the clan forums are so heated these days that they dominate the recomended list (no GF thread there...)

Thank you, thank you.

It wouldn't be fair not to thank my manager, manicurist, and
gynecologist for this achievement. It's their as much as mine.

You've got some cheek, Grampy Bobby, in view of how you tried to use Mike's death to troll divegeester on the Spirituality Forum. Have you forgotten?

Several posters had to implore you - repeatedly - to remove your odious posts, which you eventually did ~ although you never did apologize.

I would have kept silent about it - but this revolting pretense here now by you that you are somehow distancing yourself - retrospectively - from "the more cynical world of forums" when the hands down-easily-most-abjectly-cynical posts related to Mike's death that I saw on this web site were yours. Bar none. And you know exactly what I am referring to. You should be ashamed of yourself.

GB, you should remember that thread and thank those of us (at least 3 or 4 posters) who implored you to take down your posts, and a few minutes before the editing window closed, you finally did, and so did we. I have sometimes since wondered if it would have better to leave them up.

gee the hounds seem to have tracked you to here dear GB, remember Farmer Micheal Hayes!

I am a bold undaunted fox that never yet was trapped or caught.

You know exactly what happened and what you said. And you know there are other people here who know too. You've got some gall to claim any high ground now, Grampy Bobby, and pretend you do not remember how people beseeched you to take your posts down. They were the most noxious things anyone posted on any forum at that sad time. Directing people to a different thread is rank dishonesty.

Would you like the original thread reposted? Even with the amends, and deletions it still reads like a car crash.
