Wow! I just had my first thread deleted! How cool is that?

I was looking for the Where's Clinton thread and I asked in all seriousness where it had gone, (I like to follow the responses of our young Mr. Warmth, you see) and before I could even get an answer Bam!, my thread was gone.

I went to the Deleted Threads and Posts thread and found out that the Where's Clinton thread had been deleted/closed before I could read what the rapscallion had been up to.

And now mine! I'm honored......I think.

not deleted....*grin*...just closed. I think someone is trying to suggest we up the 'tone' around here and get away from internal bickering over the administration policies. I can't imagine why they'd want that.

Hey seamus join the club. I had my 'WHERE'S CLINTON' thread deleted completely. Yours was only closed. But kudos where kudos is due.

Apparently reading between the lines he has been blocked for upsetting a venerable.

How long do you give this one?

Whenever I saw his name it would conjure up the image of a chain mailed stetson wearing red head with a pint of guinness belting out The Rocky Road to Dublin.

Probably nowhere near the truth but cerebrally pleasing nevertheless.

While searching Sea Shanties on U-Tube, I got a bit carried away from Bret's sea shanty thread, I espied a tall, (well tall to a short guy like me) bearded CH leading a shanty with his band (the name I forgot). Where he is now I don't know but he was doing a pretty good job singing 3 months ago when he was put up.

Funny, I didn't know guinness could sing...


I've only just looked at this thread for the first time. A few hours ago I linked it with Shambles's thread in the thread name game thread, not realising how apt it was:

Tom Hamilton, I'm honored to join your club.
Only a few have had other threads closed...
MG, Clinton, Garg.

No wait! It was my own thread that was closed.
Shit! Now I'll have to go and get another one closed
so I can be a member.

Hey Jude (wow, there's a song-hook if ever I heard one!),
c'mon in, close a thread.

Going off on a fake closure of another thread won't get either one closed, for better or for worse, so we can eliminate that as a strategem.

But at least, Seamus old bean, you've managed to achieve closure. If the counsellors are to be believed, that's what we should all be seeking.
