    OK, I am going to bite the bullet.

    What has happened regarding the no mentioning of our beloved leader?

    Why is this not sitewide like the no mentioning of a certain events company.

    I am presuming that this is not an April Fools joke.

    I could be wrong , but I guess it's because it's April 1st.

    I certainly thought it was an April Fools joke until it went on beyond midday.

    Brian Cowen and apparently satirical uses of phrases like "Zanu FF" are prohibited also. Reminds me a bit of Singapore which is notionally democratic but uses threats of court action to stifle criticism and effectively maintain a one party state.

    I'm still hoping someone will shout April Fools.

    Brian Cowen, not happy with stuff said on boards, boards no longer mention him (or siteban), guanyin had a hissy fit, got banned by smods, etc etc.

    Still clueless? Happy April Fools Day!

    The use of the word "beloved" is what threw me off. I was sure you were talking about me DeVore

    He said "I am presuming this is NOT an April Fool's joke" - that's why I asked why. :)

    Why are you making that presumption Fred?

    Aaahh ****, now you've gone and got me all confused. One minute it is, the next it isn't.

    Oh well, I suppose rule 8 applies :D
    The Female Rules
    1. The Female always makes The Rules.
    2. The Rules are subject to change without notice.
    3. No Male can possibly know all The Rules.
    4. If the Female suspects the Male knows all The Rules, she must immediately change some of The Rules.
    5. The Female is never wrong.
    6. If it appears the Female is wrong, it is because of a flagrant misunderstanding caused by something the Male did or said wrong.
    7. If Rule #6 applies, the Male must apologize immediately for causing the misunderstanding.
    8. The Female can change her mind at any time.
    9. The Male must never change his mind without the express written consent of The Female.
    10. The Female has every right to be angry or upset at any time.
    11. The Male must remain calm at all times, unless the Female wants him to be angry or upset.
    12. The Female must, under no circumstances, let the Male know whether she wants him to be angry or upset.
    13. The Male is expected to read the mind of the Female at all times.
    14. At all times, what is important is what the Female meant, not what she said.
    15. If the Male doesn't abide by The Rules, it is because he can't take the heat, lacks backbone, and is a wimp.
    16. If the Female has PMS, all The Rules are null and void and the Male must cater to her every whim.
    17. If the Male, at any time, believes he is right, he must refer to Rule #5.
