A truly SHOCKING development, people! Shane tried to post today to answer Rapparee, and found that he had been blocked from the forum!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He is furious about it! He can no longer talk directly to his friends...and enemies....here, because he has to be a member of Mudcat Cafe now to post in the non-music section. As for the music section, well, who knows? It's been a long time since Shane has posted there, because there are very few Ozzy fans on this site, so why bother?

Does this mean that Shane can never speak directly here again, but only through a 3rd party, such as myself?

If so, it is the END OF AN ERA! Just one more sign of the perilous and increasingly Orwellian times we live in, when the powers that be can monitor all your cellphone conversations, your credit card transactions, read your email, track your online activities, and probably record each time you break wind and for how long....

Let us all bow our heads in a moment of silent prayer as we remember, sadly, the last time Shane ever posted on this forum...it happened yesterday at 25 Mar 16 - 10:24 PM. And he said:


"I do not beleeve any of yer flippin' crasey storeys, Rap! You are makin' them all up, eh? Not a flippin' word of truth in even one of them! You lie like a flippin' rug, eh? I seen worse lyers than you mabye...but not in a flippin' long time! If you think this will get you girls I think you are wrong, eh? They can see right throo you, man.

- Shane"

And that will be remembered, yes, for generations to come, as the last time Shane actually spoke on Mudcat Cafe. People are in tears all over northern Ontario as I post this. The world we once knew and depended upon is (sob!) gone forever!!!
