Out fishing with Annie on his lap, a cigar in one hand and a ginger ale in the other, watching the sunset.

Hey, thanks for resurrecting it from the dust bin, where it probably would have stayed had you not decided that the world needed saving!

I just want to thank everyone for confirming that I am the KING OF ALL FREDS. Not like everyone didn't already know that, but hey, thanks to positron I can sing my praises to high heaven, cuz that's just the kind of guy I am!

Hi Chip,

I ressurected nothing, that is the point. Its a 'sticky', meaning its not going anywhere from the top until its unstuck. This has nothing to do with saving the world, I am quite unsure what you mean by that. I neither know what a Fred is, nor do I care, but congratulations; I'm sure your mother is proud.

All I am asking is that pointless, and now outdated, threads be removed from the top of this particular forum lest we end up like C and V where one has to sort through a mountain of crap to see whats being posted.

Best regards Fred,

Best regards Fred,
somebady has their panties in a twist... I am glad for the Fred posts, I never knew what fred was before and now it makes me happy to know that fred is kind of like a zen philosophy... it is only what you make of it, live and let live and stay true to your inner Fred...

... take a deep breath Positron and step outside to smell the roses, they are much more interesting than these forums anyways...
