Forum Administrator Arrested

Post by John »

Sorry guys, had a lightning visit from the authorities yesterday.

Not sure if I'll be able to continue to administrate the forum from my new prison cell.

May not be able to hold out much longer against their brutality, being force fed wheat starch paste and zeolites.

Can someone please get a message through to the FAT.....Aaaaaagghhhh.

Conservation Police are in some states in the US have more power than local and county police. It all goes back to when states were territories and the only formal law enforcement was "Conservation Police" an arm of "departments of natural resources" or "fish and wildlife".

"and another thing officer, stop calling me 'mate', I'm not your mate, I have never met you before in my life, can we keep this professional please" (translation = please throw the book at me) "besides, I bought the MDF on the internet, its perfectly legal, it was advertised as plant food. Anyway, i'm cutting down on zeolites, honest. You may think I'm looking at the world through rose tinted glasses, but actually its only a mild pink tint, they are True Vue, I'm not trying to hide my identity or anything, look here is my sticker on the back, complete with a grumpy looking badly rendered image of a middle aged (and middle ages) printer. .... No of course it doesn't look like me.... it isn't supposed to.... no I dont know what the fork its got to do with picture framing, but neither do the people who sold me the rights to use the logo know anything about picture framing either.
I guess they'll throw the book at me and hang me with PT20 nylon cord, wont they"

This kind if religion (Enviornmentalism and teh control of your aire and water etc.) is going on in the states too. It's part of Agenda 21, UN mandate ... all in the guise of "peace"". I don't yet know you but I sure think this kind of crap has to stop. It is only more government red tape. They produce nothing and only destroy. A man or woman who actually produces a product, now there you have it. I'm willing to bet you were not going to force feed your neighbors the MDF. :P
Hope you don't mind me ranting.

"...guess they'll throw the book at me and hang me with PT20 nylon cord, wont they"

And proving that the forum is more widely read by suppliers than you'd sometimes think: today a roll of PT20 cord arrived on Venton's van delivery - it was marked "Warning - Choking hazard". :clap:
nice one :)

This must be an old photo - the Conservation (Framing) Police were disbanded in 2005 and replaced with 'The Preservation Constabulary' due to overcuts in spending and deep tax rebates in the pubic sector.

The good old Bobbies on the beat who'd take you around the undermount and give you a good thumping just for being in possesion of Copydex - have now been replaced by PCSOs (Preservation Constabulary Support Officers) who have limited powers, but can call on higher authority if needed when their nanometers register above 3.5 on the sphincter scale, which replaced the 'blue wool' or 'touching cloth' scale last year.

Some new offences and disorders that have come about since this re-formation include the ASBO (Acid Saturated Board Ownership)
