Alright, already.

As much as I have enjoyed the pseudo-commentary and discussion (it's about
time we loosened up about the show), the piteous murmurs of confusion on
this group (like when someone seriously considers the possibility of the
"regional" broadcasts--Puh-Leeze!  Here and I never really thought that the
smiley was all that necessary...), and the rapid approach of the *real*
Episode 2014 bring me to the following announcement, for those stragglers
who haven't caught on:

THERE WAS NO EPISODE ON 1/26/91.

The thread originated solely here, on a.t.t-p, where Rod Johnson cleverly
(and straight-facedly) invented a commentary/description of a non-existent
episode--more or less a biting satire on our discussion habits, not to
mention on the show itself.

For those of you who might have missed it:

(God, I feel like Joe Piscopo's Ted Koppel)

THERE WAS NO EPISODE ON 1/26/91.

Cordially,

M.S. Rooney

P.S.: My favorite posting in the entire thread remains Kathleen Hunt's
      "transcript" of the scene at the end in the Sheriff's office, with
      the llama and the OAM babbling mystically.  "Birds can fly," indeed.
