Whoa Datsa lotta stuff Hopefully some of it was digestible. If not, well... roughage is good also, even if i didn't spelted it corectly. The emotikons help cover up the misstakes in speling.

I think Ann is well over a million words.
Being Swedish she doesn't make many spelling mistakes.

• Her English is too good, he said,
  Which clearly indicates that she is foreign.
  Whereas others are instructed in their native language
  English people aren't.
  And although she may have studied with an expert
  Di'lectician and grammarian, I can tell that she was born
  Hungarian!

I wonder what 171 in " Best Title in the Universe (171)" means

[makc]

Ah, it's probably the number of ckam posts neufer keeps adding to my post count. I did not realize they have deleted ckam account.

Is there any current active Asteriskean who has had a longer hiatus

Orbital's Cygnus freighter reaches International Space Station
By Jonathan Amos, BBC News, 29 September 2013

<<The new Cygnus freighter has arrived at the International Space Station (ISS) carrying about 700kg (1,500lb) of food and other supplies. Astronauts on the platform reached out with a robotic arm and grabbed the vessel at 11:00 GMT. Cygnus has arrived at the station a week later than planned after an initial attempt last Sunday encountered software problems. This left the freighter unable to establish the proper communications and navigation links with the space station. Cygnus was commanded to loiter more than 2,000km from the ISS while engineers developed, tested and uploaded a patch. The arrival mid-week of a new crew at the station then pushed the second berthing attempt back even further. Astronauts will wait a day before entering the freighter to start removing its stores. The current schedule calls for Cygnus to stay at the platform for about a month, after which it will be sent into a destructive dive into the atmosphere.>>

Wonderboy can stay for a month, after which...

There's some new ranks for the list.

There's some new ranks for the list.

It's about time

I was starting to feel like Bart Simpson writing in all those "Commanders."

[Beyond]

Yeah, too many Commanders spoils the Asteriskian* soup The Asterisk* needs various inputs to it's menu, for a well balanced diet that doesn't get and boring.

[geckzilla]

It's really hard to come up with something sometimes. I'm not sure if it's because I'm trying too hard or not hard enough.
