Pony Party: Deja Vu

Good morning!!

Due to scattered, random questions about which threads are ‘open’ I’m re-posting an edited portion of a previous Pony Party

Pony Parties should appear in the ‘Recent Essays’ section of your DocuDharma Front Page 3 times a day, 9 a.m., noon, and 6 p.m. Eastern.  They serve as open fora, so feel free to ‘pimp’ an essay, say hello, vent, or throw up a plethora of ponies and pooties.  Basically, the floor is yours. 


They appear in the essay column, and due to their frequency and the additional open fora that will appear on the Front Page (more on that later), are meant to scroll away.  So please, don’t recommend the Pony Party essay.  I know it’s tough.  You’re nice people, and you like to give acknowledgment.  Trust me, we won’t take it personally.  But you know who might?  The person who gets bumped off of the Recommended Essays list by a Pony Party.  Put yourself in his/her shoes.

In addition to Pony Parties in the Essay list, on the Front Page you will see

Also for your chatting pleasure-

Monday – Friday 6 am Muse in the Morning– Robyn Serven favors us with some art and poetry.  This is an Open Thread.

7:30 am The Morning News– I’ll be handling this for now.  This is an Open Thread.

4:00 pm 4 at 4– Magnifico gives us just 4 stories of importance.  This is an Open Thread.

Monday – Thursday 12 midnight Midnight Cowboy– pinche tejano provides some late night thoughts.  This is a semi-Open Thread.

…as defined by our own ekhornbeck, here

.

[editorial note…as you can see, we here at DocuDharma have our priorities straight…we take our art and poetry before our news

And it just wouldn’t be a deja vu day unless we took the way-back machine for a little spin, and took a couple of snapshots of 9/20’s past….(I tried to make the screen all wavy like a t.v. flashback, to no avail.  I hope the standard morning grogginess will provide the desired ambiance for simulated time-travel.)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

9/20/1633: Gallileo tried for heresy by The Inquisition.  (Whether he, or anyone, expected the inquisition is up for debate.)

9/20/1879:  The oldest football club in Ireland, The Cliftonville Football Club, is founded.

9/10/1946:  Debut of the Cannes Film Festival.

9/20/1973: ‘The Battle of the Sexes’ is won by Billie Jean King, who beats Bobby Riggs in straight sets, 6-4,6-3, 6-3. 

9/20/2001: George W. Bush, in a speech to a joint session of Congress, declares war on terror.  sigh.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

As alway, please don’t feed the ponies……..

So, without further ado, the floor is yours… 

~73v, over and out
