Hijacked

Ed, thank you for your comment. We have investigated the thread you referenced, and we can verify that there is indeed a lapse of content unrelated to the legitimate home repair topic.

At this time, content enforcers have been sent to interview several of the authors, and I can assure you that all steps will be taken to assure that this never happens again.

Again, thank you for bringing this situation to our attention.

But wait! There's More!!

It's the Internet/usenet. Deal.

Oh, I thought that was the purpose of NG's...???

You posted this to the wrong newsgroup. You need to go to alt.home.snivel.

Beware of us agent provocateurs, we will set you up to make you violate the rules so we can take you down.

=3D=3D "Hijacking a thread" is common operating procedure for UseNet...just read backwards until you get to the original subject. =3D=3D

Ya, love Vetting, I have a Vette, my brother has a Vette. We drive to the monthly Vette club meeting and swap Vette stories. Anybody else drive a Vette? Huh, wa, oh, that's not what you meant? oh, that is what you meant. Mike

I couldn't agree with you more. Thanks to the misleading subject line, I was unaware of the smoking discussion.

I've traced the problem back to the OP. If he didn't know what the thread was supposed to be about, he should not have posted.

They just busted down my door. I've been sentenced to lose my Johnson at the public square for all to see.

Lets hijack this thread and turn it into a car thread! Vettes suck, AC Cobra all the way! ROTFLMAO

TDD

Will someone please post the pictures on YouTube for those of us that can't make the event...

Oh, gosh, that's wild. I have driven Chevrolet for a lot of years. I don't want to get Onstar, and have someone else make all my decisions for me. "Oh, should I stop and go pee? I'd better press my blue button!"

I've said much the same thing, several times. No one appears to pay much attention to me, either.

Outdoors, I've smelled a lit cigarette within a minute, at over 100 feet, on a calm day.

I hope these Usenet Violators are sent to one of the usenet concentration camps to be beaten and tortured, and later they face the firing squad. According to the authorities, there will be at least one of these camps in every state in the USA, as well as other countries by July of 2010. It's about time!

If you read the subject line, it clearly shows that part of the thread that continues on about smoking. You don't have to waste your time reading anything, or waste space with YOUR useless message.

Whew! Finally! Something else to do other than read Usenet drivel :o)

I think Obama wants to send them to Thompson Illinois.

You raise a good point here. I was thinking just yesterday about the pros and cons of legal abortion, of federalism versus a strong central government versus a weak central government with strong state governments.

Also the state of international law, self-reliance, unwed mothers, vaccination scares, and genetic testing.

And of course, how all of these relate to home repair.

I'm interested in everyone's opinion, so come on y'all. Join in.

Sir,

The above mentioned thread was not Hijacked. Closer attention demonstrates that the OP found his solution to the drill problem and posted back in the thread.

After that! It is "Katie bar the door".

Sincerely,

Hall Monitor

Even my opinion? Being a smoker, I have an inferior IQ it was said. But at least I'm not dumb enough to say such a thing. My shoes all have TGIF on them as a reminder...that Toes Go In First.
