I think it only appropriate that we all reserve a moment of silence tomorrow in memory of teh NES, because Bergie just pulled the plug on the NES unceremoneously on Tuesday. Little did I know that it would be me who had posted the very last 3 words -"chug, chug, chug", and I only did that because I was "lost for words". It was a lot of fun, and frankly I don't know why the plug was pulled, especially since so many of the other recent Forum topics are so seriously unpleasant and overblown with anger and misinformation. Guess we were having too much fun. <br /> <br />Did you think that perhaps Bergie doesn't care for the UP, and it was the last 'episode' where all the UP bashing crazies were rounded up onto a single train that someone ran off a cliff into the Pacific Ocean? Or perhaps he may have been offended by one or more references to the following: granola, wine, hobos, rabbits, hobos eating rabbits, Martha Stewart jokes, Big Boys, little boys & Michael Jackson, okra, the color 'pink', steam engines, diesel engines, The Rock, not mentioning the great state of Wisconsin, the Civil War, kudzu, Tony Soprano, pizza, New Joisey, decapods, F units, West Virginia, Mama Alabama and her pink pig, or could it be that perhaps he may be just planning on introducing a product called "OkraKola", and wants to avoid any prior claims to the possible ownership and rights to that brand name now used without license by the NES crew. <br /> <br />We'd better watch ourselves and not get too many posts over here, or we'll have to find another place to hang out. Guess we could always just start a new topic and move over there, huh. <br /> <br />It's late and time to chug off to bed. Goodnite folks. <br />BILL
