Playing with words and a news story.
April 17, 2017 at 7:11 am
I just saw a news story about an old light house, and one local historian said, " come learn the history about WHAT WENT ON"
I get what she was saying, but it struck me funny "What went on".
No no no no, "what went on", that is something a parent asks the police when they get a call at work about an unauthorized party their kids had home while the parent was at work.
ORGIES AT THE LIGHT HOUSE!
"What went on"..... Gee I don't know, pretty sure people worked, ate, did normal shit.

A lighthouse is a pretty wicked orgy location though...

thinking about those lurid silhouettes being reflected from the clouds ?
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

Are you sure you're not missing a pun or something? Learning about "what went on" seems like a light bulb joke to me.
