RIP K-W's: "Mod's Lock This Thread" ....
got locked on post #221 by the "Big" guy. It was a tough and titanic struggle my fellow DUers but we did it...we finally did it. That row boat is sunk, that parrot is deceased, that thread is gone I tell ya... (there were some damn fine gems in there though...)

3. *whimper*
I feel your pain. :hug:

Should we have a funeral service?
I'd be willing to volunteer, as the unofficial chaplain.

4. Well shouldn't there be a "wake" for it first???
Or does that take place after the funeral? This should be left up to KitchenWitch, it was her thread afterall... she should be notified at some point, I hope she does not take it too hard. Perhaps an obituary may be in order. A song also comes to mind: "Ding Dong the Witch's Thread Is Dead"

5. Wake = before the funeral
The idea being to stay up with the dead person until they're properly buried. Then someone thought to bring beer. :)

7. Ah... well I just can not possible stay up a moment longer....
...so the wake is out of the question for me. The thread lives on in my memory and in my bookmarks.
(Didn't know that about wakes btw, that's my one new thing learned today....thank Rev C)

6. I wonder what gets those threads locked.
I've never understood that one. I guess it's another one of those jokes I get 5 minutes later. I'm sorta slow sometimes.

9. The real wonder here Jamastiene...
..is why that thread didn't get locked earlier. Some fairly bright DUers gave it their best shot but alas, I feel in the end, it was a combination of all our efforts to finally get that sucka locked.

I think it was timing, taunting, a challenge, and a dare.

12. I want to start one of those one day.
Is the goal to get it locked sooner rather than later or to be the last to post before the mod who locks it?
