It's just too much fun.  Just when you think it's gasped it's last breath...it gives a snort and says no to that coffin.  AB, I think this thread has a life of it's own.  It will never die.  You created a monster.

The question is actually one of how long the mechanisms that keep it going will last.  How long will the board use the current software?  When will PUT mgmt. grow tired of providing a home for it and kill it (long after the zoom thread dies, I suspect).  How long will you and I (and a few other people) keep bringing it back?  Will someone start a Threadkillers II thread that steals the life from this one?  Will those who post in this just give up - either on this thread, the Campfire, or the Arvee Club?  Could a too-hot argument erupt here, causing a moderator to delete the thread?  There are many ways a thread could die, not just because the posters stopped posting to it.

Until then, this is the thread that never dies.

Well, I hope to continue to have fun with it until whatever happens.

This is not fun. Death is not fun. I take this thread seriously as should you;)

Death is serious.  Life is fun.  We are beginning to get philosophical here.  Not sure if this is healthy for the thread.

Well that's as deep as I get. Now back to the fun. What's this thread about?

Whatever we want it to be, but it usually centers around killing the thing or keeping it alive.

This thread just proves that you can't just be a "Thread Killer" on your own. The actual thread killer is not the last person that posted but all of the others that are bored with the topic and decide "NOT" to post on it. They are the real thread killers. It is a combined effort. :)

So you're saying that the poor soul who posts last is either:

1) The one who bored everyone to the point of ignoring the thread,

or

2) The one who failed to figure out that the thread was too boring to bother posting to any more?

Seems to be a lot of bored people here.  Go camping!

This time next week and it'll be one day and a wake up.  for a camping trip, that is.

I am absolutely ready.

dthurk

I'm ready, too.  The snow has melted around the camper, I can now get it out of it's parking area, but that's like salt in the wound.  We have no chance to go anywhere at this point.  Have to wait until Easter.
