Hello Everybody,
"He'll be back."
~ Janis Kracht
Every member of the Fidonet community took it really hard
when one of it's most beloved members left the building. But
Janis informed us all that he would be back, although never
disclosing exactly when.
The other day, Janis informed the Fidonet community that
she would be taking her system down, without specifying her
reason(s) why. Her system is now offline, for better or for
worse.
It has also come to my attention that the British people
have been infected by a virus. A virus far worse than the
novel coronavirus, with no vaccine, and also incurable.
Evidence of this is quite abundant, as reported on the
BBC's "Worklife" site. The story is titled "Why are more
people saying y'all?"
You see, people around the world (not just in England)
are using the Southern expression "y'all" - thus replacing
"you guys" - as a way to address a group.
And you know what that means.
The one who shall not be named is back.
The BBC site reports the news, never fake news. So we
can all trust this source are verifiable truth of the real
news as to what is going on -
"Te distictive Americanism is making its way across the
world and becoming an unlikely favourite catch all term."
Wow! Did you get that?
Many Cajuns spend a lot of time in Paris. I cannot imagine
any of them hearing, 'Bonjour, y'all!'.
Just think of what might happen next. The next thing you know,
they'll figure out the difference between 'y'all' and 'all y'all'
- and start saying that too.
All thanks to the virus that has no vaccine or cure.
What happens next? Maybe upon meeting a new person,
no matter where that person might be, instead of saying
'Nice to meet you,' they'll say, 'Who's ya momma'
There is only one thing I can say to all these new y'all
users - "Well, bless your heart ..."
