I have learned the error of my ways and do embrace patience in all things hog-washy. Therefore I must protect the identity of our fellow AWADer who has not yet voted. I will reveal that his initials are "Bingley," but beyond that my lips are sealed.

I understand that Bingley has left the comforts of Jakarta to make his annual pilgramage to the Old Country, where, if I remember rightly, he does not access the internet. Don't know how long he's away, Alex. Maybe give him another day or two, so we can have our se'nnight, yes?

Maybe not.
But he's been visiting his Old Country for more than ten days, so where is this Old Country...on Mars?
Patience, Dear Hogmaster, is not a virtue when hungry wolves are at your heels. We people have places to go and ditches to dig and we have already waited a se'nnight plus two.
Look, I don't want to seem unkindly, but waiting on Bingley to return is like watching a four hour Fellini film without any captions.
Even good ole Bingley himself (if he were here) would be embarrassed at a Hogmaster's failure to call "time".
So please, stop the madness. Invoke the "endgame clause" of Consuello Hogwash rules that requires the public disclosure of Bingley definition and then call "time".
It is the right thing to do.

So, Dear Hogmaster. Damned if you do and damned if you don't.
And, Milo, where can I get a DVD of that Fellini film?

Don't wait for Bingley this time, Alex; he'll be away a couple more weeks. He may occasionally get on the internet, but don't count on it by a certain time.

Hello to the AWAD crew!
I have been gone for a couple of years and I am amazed to find you all still posting away. Bravo!
I am trying to find a Christmas story I posted here a few years ago (2003 or 02?) and I couldn't find it using the search. Does anyone know how I might navigate back to it (maybe it was in miscellany?) or to whom I might inquire to try to retrieve it (Jackie?)
Anyway, Merry, merry to all of you. It is great to see the familiar old names.
Be well,
Magimaria

Since the software was updated, I too have been unable to retrieve old threads using the search. The search engine will discover the threads, and display links, but when I click on them I get an error message.
