Was silly fun, wasn’t it?
It was terrific to have so many posters simultaneously enjoying the laughs and the zaniness of the moment. No griping among one another, no tearing someone apart. Just a crazy time that happened because of itself. The result was one Minnelli relative after another, in rapid succession, being identified and connected and giving birth to another.
The OT board very quickly became overly cluttered and overrun with threads that contained nothing but a Minnelli title, crazy as they were. Some posters who weren’t on the same plane (i.e., crazy enough) to partake of the madness, felt a bit adrift. Even those who were participating were exhausted by the humor building to a crescendo. I had to step into the “Mojito” thread for a drink and to catch my breath.
All good things come to an end. And BWW management felt that the madness needed to stop, and so the craziness ended as quickly as it began.
For those of us who participated, it was terrific to laugh together. For those who weren’t there, or didn’t understand what was going on, well, you just had to be in the moment.
It was an invigorating melding of diverse personalities and lifestyles and ages and points of view, all riffing on the magic of the name Minnelli.
Keep humor in your lives, it's as important to life as breathing.
