One of my biggest dissappointments in CP history related to a D'oh Boy incident.
He had penned some article that was the usual trash that was posted as a thread here on CP. I penned a counter article and posted it in the same thread. Took me about 10 minutes to come up with "journalism" that far surpassed that clown. If memory serves, I even floated the thought that this is what a good writer like Cowperson could come up with. "Lick The Salt Block" or something to that effect, essentially spoofing taking things with a grain of salt.
It was a funny "article" and received some great laughs.... but when I went to search for it a couple months later as a reference for something... it was gone. Not only it, but the whole thread.
The Mods tried to find it but it was gone... forever... and I didn't keep a copy of it. I have written a lot of stuff on CP (moreso in the past), but THAT one was a piece that I felt had some magic and timing. To lose it in cyberspace really, really pissed me off. And I can only blame Ballistic Diarhea for that one. Well, he and his lawyers....
