    Can someone please explain AMOCK?

    With Karen out of the building, I know that there have been references to running amock. I'm guessing that this is in reference to an old thread from before my time?

    I'd like to be let in on the joke if any old timers would be so kind to enlighten me.

    thanks.

    Main Entry: 1amok
    Pronunciation: &-'m&k, -'mäk
    Function: noun
    Etymology: Malay amok
    : a murderous frenzy that occurs chiefly among Malays



    Since we aren't in Malaysia, I think we are safe!

    Divided we fall.

    Click on the Search tab.
    Search by keyword. Type in amok (or amock or amoke)
    In Search options, highlight Other, General.
    Then click on Perform search.
    Several threads will show up. Open the oldest one in 2002, and the rest in order, and you'll see where it all started.

    I just reread them all. Good fun. Even Paul took part in it.

    And Catland, you started one of the threads!!

    I did the right thing by setting you free
    But the pain is very deep.
    If only I could turn back time, forever, you I'd keep.
    I miss you


    I hear you whimper in your sleep
    I gently pet you and say, no bad dreams
    It will be alright, to my dog as dark as night.

    Fur as dark as the night.
    Join me on this flight.
    Paws of love that follow me.
    In my heart you'll forever be.
    [/SIZE]



    How I wish I could hold you near.
    Turn back time to make it so.
    Hug you close and never let go.
