I do not know why you tried to stop the thread. Just make believe it was an innocent thread.

Hi zcaveman,
I can get pretty silly sometimes. I know that. Especially when I type late at night.
Anyway, what happened is that I was trying to give directions on how to find an old thread, from way back in March. At that time, I had just gone to see "The Bank Job" in a theater. After I returned from the movie on that March night, I guess I looked in here and saw the thread where somebody was wanting to know if there could be a movie forum. We did not have one at the time. There was a little discussion in the thread and then I got in it and wrote a little post about "The Bank Job."
Anyway, last night, when I saw that "The Bank Job" was on DirecTV, I thought I would go back and find that thread from March so that I could share the info with anybody who might want to watch the movie now on television.
But when I started to bump it by hitting "Reply," a red warning came up and said the thread was old and did I reeeeeeally want to bump it or maybe should I just start a new one. (Or maybe the red warning said I was old. Oh, I don't know.) But anyway, I thought that I would start a new thread with an explanation about the old thread. And I had written a little something about how I had found the old one so easily. Directions about using quotation marks around phrases and all. It was actually quite a tedious post.
Long story short -- well, not exactly I guess -- I decided to forget the whole thing and go to bed. So I tried to just delete the incoherent mess I had written. But it was the first post in this thread and you cannot delete the first post in a thread that you start.
So now, I am just going to link that old March thing right in here. It looks kind of weird because now we have a movie forum. But if you want to read what I said all that long time ago about a movie I had just seen at the theater, scroll down and find my post about "The Bank Job."
Hey, is this what they call deja vu? -- all over again.
Or is this actually a Seinfeld episode?

This is getting so silly. I can only hope that in tonight's big move, all my many, many, way too many posts will be lost. It was a long, cold winter in Ohio.
