Maybe the book should be based on the "Why did the chicken cross the road?" epic

eg:

ERNEST HEMINGWAY: To die. In the rain.

MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR.: I envision a world where all chickens will be free to cross roads without having their motives called into question.

EINSTEIN: Did the chicken really cross the road or did the road move beneath the chicken?

RONALD REAGAN: What chicken?

FREUD: The fact that you are at all concerned that the chicken crossed the road reveals your underlying sexual insecurity.

COLONEL SANDERS: You mean I missed one?


press any key - where's the ANYKEY?

Hi there, Moonbird! Perhaps it could be about a couple of characters who decide to make an existentialist investigation into the aforementioned fowl's vehicular dodging activities.

You know, like the Da Vinci Code, but with feathers...

Oh Dear!

That's how we all got started... Wink
once on the slippery slope to stardom!

Next thing you'll posting jokes...or suggesting ideas for collaberation...then the forum will take over your life completely; most of the regulars on here have partners who think they're having an affair!

Wow. I'm impressed, Celia, and truth be told, a little scared. Ten thousand posts? Will you let us in on when you started? You have the biggest, shiniest star of all.

I'm more than impressed - I'm bloody amazed!

In case Celia doesn't come back, Swanny, note that she registered in 14.04.05. That's 179 days to 10.10.05 when she was at 10,140 posts, which equates to 56.65 posts a day!

Assuming she sleeps for 8 hours, that's 3.54 posts every waking hour of every day for 179 days!

What's her real name - David Blane?!

To put that in perspective - I think I'm the saddest poster amongst us regulars, 1708 posts in 126 days - and that's only an average of 13.5 posts a day, .84 every hour.

Actually, that's scary enough ...

My secret is out EekNinja

3 and a half posts an hour is really not much, I'm disappointed at that Frown To scare you even more, I've done about 2000 posts just in the last week, because I wanted the star. And no I don't get out very much Big Grin There's a better one though, at 20,000 posts, it sparkles and spins Eek

Celia, are you going to go for the star that sparkles and spins? I must admit, I pressed your name and saw that you post on a number of forums on this site. Any that you would recommend? Please tell all about your posting methods: steadily throughout the day or a few quickies here and there. And why such a sad footer - Ma famille set me free, throw my ashes into the sea - it seems so forlorn. It makes me want to give you chocolate chip cookies.

Your friendly minor league poster,

Swann

Harriet Miers - what could be more depressing?

I will get the spinny star one day, just watch me Cool

I do get around a lot of the forums, but I did a post in every single C4 forum yesterday, as a kind of symbolic gesture to get to my new star Big Grin - hence why I poked my nose in here. My favourite forum is GD (general discussions) - it's a bit random. You'd be most welcome!

My signature changes all the time, I always use song lyrics. The current one is from a song called 'Haiti' by the Arcade Fire. I'm ashamed to say I don't really know anything about Haiti, and most of the song is in French (which I don't speak) anyway. I'm currently obsessed with the song anyway, and I liked that line, and it might apply to how I feel about my family a bit. I'm not forlorn though, not really. But if you want to give me chocolate chip cookies, then feel free Big Grin
