Why, dear Phoenix, is this thread titled in my honour?
A long time ago, near the end of the last century, I was working on a cruise ship in the Indian Ocean, and on the evening of the 1st April (April Fools Day) the "newspaper" announced various activities beginning at midnight.
First off was the showing of "Debbie does Dallas" at 24:05 in the ship cinema........... There was a long queu of people waiting to see the (non-existent) movie! ... not realising it was an April Fools joke.
Next morning was "Open Heart Surgery" scheduled for 10am entertainment in the lounge! They were all waiting, with their children to watch the blood and gore!
Later came "Waterskiing off the back of the liner" - ditto the crowd waiting to drop down into the ocean and be towed by the effing great cruise ship!

Wayward .......? You mean Wedward, old Weddy? ... he fell off his balcony while cleaning the windows and his underpants elastic caught on the window three storeys down breaking his fall, so he managed to survive, and the last I heard he was building a retreat for artists to rent converted containers on a farm in a forest up in Austria.
Dunno what he`s been doing for the last 3 years. Maybe he`s dead?
As for the old-timers, there seems to just be me and Conrad left!
I just come here now and again to play my favourite Haloween Pumpkins game, and say hello to Conrad.
