I hope there's no looming P10K crisis embedded in the forum software...

It won't be a problem until someone exceeds 16777215 posts.

"Will you post a little faster?" said an Owlice to a Chris,
"There's a neufer far before us, and he's difficult to miss.
And see out off before him is a 'stander, half in France;
He is waiting on a barstool -- will you come and join the dance?
Will you, won't you, will you, won't you, will you join the dance?
Will you, won't you, will you, won't you, won't you join the dance?

"You can really have no notion how delightful it will be
When we catch up to the neufer, and the 'stander, you will see!"
But the Chris replied "Too far, too far!" and gave a look askance --
And he thanked the Owlice kindly, but he would not join the dance.
Would not, could not, would not, could not, would not join the dance.
Would not, could not, would not, could not, could not join the dance.

"What matters it how much we post?" his feathered friend replied.
"There is another bar, you know, upon the other side.
The further left of 'stander, the deeper into France --
So throw a kiss, good poster Chris, and come and join the dance.
Will you, won't you, will you, won't you, will you join the dance?
Will you, won't you, will you, won't you, won't you join the dance?

BRILLIANT

[owlice]

Apparently there is no verse I can't make worse, no prose I won't expose to my own special brand of doggerel. Poor poets, and yes, I'm going to my room right this instant.

And Chris, yes, yes, I'm talking to you!

No pushing; I'm going, I'm going...!

Hm! No accounting for tastes!

Poor Mock Turtle and Tortoise.

"You mean: poor Mock Turtle and Gryphon "
said the Mock Turtle angrily: "really you are VERy dull!"

[owlice]

No, I mean exactly what I say, and nothing else! 'Twas the Tortoise who taught the Quadrille to the Mock Turtle.

THE bird whispered in my ear to take a look at this topic, I never hit this one before!

RJN, you are right, these people are what you said!


I am curious, what else do you compare?

You know, climbing up and be on top makes you alone and the atmosphere is thin? Besides from falling down

I am still an ascending MOONlady, far far away from thousands of posts, so till I return back here, your grandchildren will be chatting with me here...
and I will tell them about you, ha ha, so be nice to me if you care what I will tell them about you
