Thread Name: BS: Ode to Sir jOhn and His Lost Thread
Subject: BS: Ode to Sir jOhn and His Lost Thread
Sir jOhn from Hull has lost his thread. We are afraid it must be dead. He started it upon Wednesday, then looked around, it'd gone away.
Sir jOhn wondered where it had gone, and so began another one inquiring of the first thread's fate. Oh, what a mess he did create!
For that thread was deleted too as quick as you could say, "skidoo"! He only asked," Where'd my thread go?" The answer, now, he'll never know.
Each time his question he'd repeat the answer was the same: "Delete!" Now jOhn's thread's fate, it is unknown except by some irate Joe Clone.
Now to jOhn's rescue we have come, beating upon Free Speech's drum, to ascertain the reason why poor Sir jOhn's thread was made to die.
We surely hope that it was not merely because jOhn is a sot, a drunkard with a pickled brain whose threads are often quite inane.
For relevance and worth should be determined by the treatment we give to the thing, yes, and not by a censor in some tower on high.
Now if somebody should decide that this thread they cannnot abide and choose to send it to its doom, sweep it away as with a broom,
then they can rest assured it will rise up again (like daffodils?) in places they won't think to peek (I freely admit I'm a sneak)
until the answer we do know to that question that irks us so. You know the answer, tell us Joe, just where the hell did jOhn's thread go?
