I vaguely remember the owner of Joshua Doore furnitue stores having been murdered. These furniture stores were well know in the 70s and 80s.

Joshua Doors was a made up name. Harvey Leach was found murdered, in the trunk of Hus car with his throat slashed.
A somewhat dark humour response to the original jingle was... "You've got an uncle in the furniture business, Joshua Doors. Not any more."

Somebody needs to grow up, but it isn't you. The so called 'Community Guidelines' are not under any type of law, with the exception or threatening, racist, pedophile and those sorts of posts. Same things that are illegal for a newspaper or magazine to print. Two violations for the same question, with different reasons proves two things only. 1) The so called Guidelines are too subjective and the Trolls know that, 2) The Community cannot police itself without some form of control at the top. Automatic VN's and suspensions can be generated simply by one troll using 2 accounts to 'report' a question. I agree that Yahoo needs to take more responsibility for the conduct on this site and either enforce the 'rules' for all..or none.

Mafia got the owner. Back in 1974, two bullets in the head and left in the trunk of his Lincoln at Detroit Metro airport. Apparently there is a company operating under the "Joshua Doore" name in South Africa. They even use the same advertising jingle.
