This man was only third in the balleting. Too bad the cardinals didn't think the church was ready for a 'one-eyed, one-armed, flying purple papal leader.'

That deserves a..........

.......Great thread....If you Opie again please ping me!

Thank you J
LOL! Okay. I'll do that.

On second thought why don't we just make this a continuous opus thread. lol

[Fiddlstix]

Thank you so very much for the great post!

You're welcome J
But I should be thanking you for all you've done here over the years. I read everything you posted when I first came to FR. You do a fantastic job. Your research is the best.

Now, if I remember correctly you collect penguins.
So..........
Here's a Penguin Post just for you J

It isn't an opus unless you mention something about how Jim's "personality change" has disaffected you. Better luck next time.

I'm a little late to this thread, but I disagree. The single most important element in a successful opus is how the newer posters aren't nearly the equals of the good old posters who have left. That's been said since late 1998 by my recollection.

BTW, I've always wondered who the hell were in the perfect classes of 1997 and 1998.:)

Another sad case of "Forgotten, but not gone".:)

We were all perfect back then. The puritans ruined us. ;)

One other element that every opus should include, is the departee.

It really isn't a successful opus unless the departee, participates in the exit thread, taking time to weigh in and respond to the commentary.

I appreciate that this thread's author took the time to at least thank everyone. Classy.

[Fiddlstix]

Thank you for participating J
The response to this Thread has been most gratifying.
(I believe some people got the wrong impression though. I simply posted some pictures of "Opus". Sorry for any confusion I may have caused.)

I may have gotten the wrong idea, since I didn't read the thread, but only looked at the pictures. *wink*

That is understandable as I am known far and wide for being, shall we say, rather loquacious J

I do hope you will be here when the Grand Prize is awarded J
