This thread, one the gayest and greatest, also deserves a revival.

All these zombie threads returning just in time for Halloween! 
Keep up with what I've been watching lately! "Where have you gone, Joe DiMaggio? Our nation turns its lonely eyes to you."

Can they be vampire threads instead? Not because they suck. But because they are alluringly eternal.

Careful with the mummy threads! Resurrecting those might unleash the curse!

Can we get the daddy threads to overrule them?

Daddies don't overrule mommies. When I was a kid, if my mother said "go ask your father", he'd say "go ask your mother." They don't overrule. They just cancel each other out.

In making the selection of threads to bring back, will some be grandfathered through?

Do threads have grandfathers? And, if they do, what happens if they travel back in time and kill them before they sire offspring?

It's one almighty cluster-paradox. That's where the Gods that dwell beyond space and time come in. They're not out there because they're dark or evil. They're out there because they hate the clutter. And nothing causes clutter like a paradox.
So they possess agents to rectify the problem before it occurs, putting everything back where it was. As one of their agents, I'd just like to take the opportunity to say..quit doing it EDE!

The 1953 movie Calamity Jane starring Doris Day featured the song "Secret Love". The 1995 documentary The Celluloid Closet had the same song, sung by K.D. Lang (whose name, by the way, I refuse to write in all lower-case letters, but that's an issue for a different post), sung over the closing credits.

No matter how her name is written, K.D. has quite a good voice.

She does. I just really dislike things written in all lower case. It worked for e.e. cummings because no one had really done it before.

Another E.E. -- E.E. "Doc" Smith to be exact -- was a ground-breaking science fiction writer best known for the "Lensmen" series.

I don't know any E.E.s, but I do know an E.Q. who seems to have a surprising lack of emotional intelligence.

I refuse to write in all lower-case letters But...but thothkins is in lower case for a purpose. No wait, it's in lower case because a cetacean asked me to do it. It's for a porpoise.

Instead of typing your user name, Rocky will address you differently. "Hey you!"

I've never read any of the Lensmen series, but I did read the first book of E. E. Smith's Skylark series.
