The Day of the Undead Zombie Threads

[KD1SH]

  Just a few minutes ago, I opened up AmFone, using my usual bookmark in Firefox, and the Technical forum was filled—pages and pages—with old threads, starting with 2010 and working back in time; each one flagged as "New". I reloaded the page, and they were all gone—back to the expected recent posts. Did anyone else see this? Was it just me? An undigested bit of beef, a blot of mustard, a crumb of cheese, a fragment of undercooked potato? (Apologies to Charles Dickens.)

[Jim/WA2MER]

It must have been the mustard. I had the beef and didn't have the same experience as you.

[KD1SH]

Colman's English Mustard, appropriately. Potent stuff. Didn't hear any rattling chains, fortunately.

It must have been the mustard. I had the beef and didn't have the same experience as you.

I'll bet it was the mushrooms!

[KD1SH]

Oh, you'd lose that bet; I'm certified mushroom free. I've never eaten one of those slimy, vomitous, pustulent bits of fungal putrescence in my life. Yuck!

I'll bet it was the mushrooms!

I didn't have this dreadful apparition on the board, but I have been watching every 'scrooge' / 'A Christmas Carol' video I have been able to find. That title/productions themselves are ghostly as in they always appear about this time of year. I do believe, I must!

Patrick Stewart did a pretty decent Scrooge, too, back in 1999 as I remember.
