43. Here's what I "almost" posted for you
Mon Dec 26, 2011, 06:49 PM
Dec 2011

And I say "almost" because the Help & Meta Discussion forum isn;t exactly known for it's good-natured "humor."



But I DID have it all loaded up and ready to go...hit the "preview" button, and said "Nah."

Is it too early for DU4 requests?

If not, I'd like to see this thread carried over:

"I want to create a thread that never ends"

http://www.democraticunderground.com/101817193

It's small now, so if we plan ahead, moving it shouldn't be too much trouble. If we wait three years until DU4 launches, it may be "cumbersome" by that point...like that "I want to create a thread that never dies" thread that, well...died

Is there a DU4 beta yet? Can we log in and practice like we did on DU3? Or am I being over-anxious and a tad too greedy in this Holiday season?

TIA

Sir or Madam
Do to some unfathomable reason and through no fault of your own, your well intended post became attached to mine as a "response".
I can assure you that I had nothing to do with this mishap either.
There has been a significant rise in solar flare activity which may account for this anomaly but we should not rule out the possibility that the OP had a hand in this. Well I've taken up much of your time and I thank you for your patience.

289. This thread is an important part of lounge cliquiosity...
Thu Mar 15, 2012, 06:41 AM
Mar 2012

yes, I said cliquiosity (clik ee oss uh tee) which is a word I made up so no need to lecture me on that. But I know you know what it means.

This thread is a descendant of the original thread that truly never died until the new forum went live. Actually, I think the thread is still alive over there but it could not be scooped up and brought over for reasons unknown to all but the admin.

It was inviting and welcoming to all and contained many lounge memes, vague references, nonsense, jokes, cats. However, it became truly cliquish when it became impossible to load for anyone but the very elite with computer systems that could handle it. For the rest of us, it was good enough to see the thread hanging on to life throughout the years.

No need to bookmark this thread. Like kudzu, it's going places.

Duck stabbed at Frostburg city duck park
FROSTBURG, Md. (AP) - Authorities in Frostburg say they hope to quickly find the person who fatally stabbed a city park duck.

The Cabela's folding knife has a 3-inch blade etched with the logo of the National Wilde Turkey Federation.

Wed Apr 18, 2012, 08:27 AM
Apr 2012

the dogs were swimming in the lake and going after a family of ducks. I could not believe how loud the dogs barked (when I first heard them I thought something was being injured.) Nope, it was just the dogs squealing as they swam after the ducks. Then I saw the mama duck fly at one of the dogs as if to bite it. It appeared to me the dog enjoyed it! This went on a few times before the dogs got tired and got out of the water.
