Umm, I've come up with a really catchy strapline that I think dovetails nicely with my new num.

Any chance in getting the strapline changed? Ok, if not. I'm just not quick on my feet at times.

Cool, Demas. Envious, am I. Thanks for the opportunity.

JB, you stir up a scrap of patriotic emotion.

umm... I think I said this somewhere before but I'd like a different strapline (one in fitting with my new number) as well. I had to try the new one on for size [Biased] ) so I'm hoping it's not too late as well. [Hot and Hormonal] [Hot and Hormonal]

Good point - it *has* been a few days now - we'll do it tomorrow (Friday).

So ... last chance to check your PMs (then disable them), see what happens with your post count and leave a forwarding address somewhere in your profile.

We'll be round tomorrow to collect the keys.

I saved the one that Kelly wrote me when I first posted on the ship for last [Axe murder] .

Indeed. I wonder when Simon will sell it off?

1143 is, after all, the date when Afonso Henrique was recognized as the King of Portugal by the Castilian king, Alfonso VII, Celestine II became Pope and St Malachy issued his famous prophecy about the number of Popes left before the end of the world.

While according to timeline 1143, Abraham Lincoln went for a post mortem trip.

The foundation of Portugal in that year is an event I commemorate, frequently, with a glass of the appropriate tipple. [Smile]

I was feeling a little bit odd about it because, while I have been a part of many denominations in my life, I've never been a Looteran.

But, hey, I'm rolling with it. [Biased]
