(What is the name for the ceremony of being made a Pooh-Bah?)
It is an "Elevation" to Pooh-Bah status, much like an Archbishop is "elevated" to Cardinal, and the elevation is conducted by The Enigmatic Anu alone. There are mysteries within paradoxes, riddles, and allusions known only to the Great One. It is a mystery.

to paraphrase something the good doctor said in another thread in this vicinitude, that is a slice of shamanistic effutiation.
you posts your requisite posts and (lo and/or behold) this typically feckless simulacrum totes up yet another digital totem for the amusement of the proles.

.... for the amusement of the proles.
And this prole is duly amused, tsuwm. (I wonder if there's a booby prize for the longest continuous presence with the fewest elevations?)

All I can say is that it must be tough at the top.

Is that why you're leaving it, and heading down to the bottom of the world?

Yep, Maxie-boy, I says to myself, I says, well, CK, you're at the top. There's not many of us up here, and it's getting damned lonely. And it's all downhill from here, so I better get a wriggle on down the slippery slope to the uttermost depths. The only thing to do, see, Maxie, is to start again from the bottom and see if I can't make a better job of the climb the second time round.

I just learned today how many postings=pooh-bah(hood) and I got dizzy! No wonderif you don't post for an hour or so, speculation is rife as to your health, well-being and/or visitation hours. A pooh-bah is in such an "elevated state" wow on top of that digital
totem pole that it is understandable the proles quiver at the thought of a pooh-bah toppling over.
With the knowledge of this incredible feat that you have achieved, let me ask forgiveness for not giving all of you pooh-bahs my proper respect when you each were elevated (kneeling on the ground and bowing repeatedly emoticon)
