....maybe that broken throbber never got fixed properly and maybe now he's a bit embarrassed to discuss it?
Don't get me started...
Apparently all the previous discussions of Throbbers (and I'm proud to say my Throbber, albeit broken at the time, was a center of discussion - not to mention all those [and you know who you are] who snuck in just to peek

) is what caused MS to whip out IE7 in an attempt to render Their Throbber to only Throbber. Jealousy. Pure unadulterated jealousy.
Oooh look at MS' 'one ring to bind them' little girlie man throbber...
Hey Billie!
Can your
Ballz swing? Can your Throbber do the
Walkin Robot? Ah hell, I swear by the
Ancients of Mu, you probably can't even get your Throbber to go
Boom.
That's okay Bill. I understand. You're ashamed of yours, so you don't want anybody else whipping theirs out on ya.
Don't make me come out of my stump...
