I'm assuming/hoping the forum will be closed again at midnight, when april fools is over.

Its april fools, besides, looked what I posted in there...cause that's all that is ever gonna be in there from me, I saw the topics, no thanks. Not so sure you have the prerequisites to use an expression such as "name of god" when you are godless.

Wrong forum.  Take it to P&R.

It's a figure of speach.  When I say, "What the ---fudgesicle--- are you doing," I don't actually wonder anything about "---fudgesicle---".

OK, it's April 2nd. Things are back to normal(?) now. I'm still toying with the idea of opening up P&R in some fashion but I don't have the mental chutzpah to deal with it right now.

I am going to ask folks to make sure P&R doesn't spill out to the rest of the forum, including personal titles and signatures that I've been slack on previously. If you've got one that's P or R, please change it before I have to exercise my creativity (hint Shmokes)  ;D

The news headline still says PnR is open access, btw.
