I have a feeling that a latter poster is right, 23 days seems more like it. This is gonna kill me! (and the thread) ---

Hesitantly, reluctantly, Helen slipped out of a sling, tight-waisted waspy and stood naked in the moonlight before me. Somewhere a clock chimed three. An owl hooted in the nearby copse. No wind stirred the casement window. She stood in the pale, translucent light on the Persian carpet. A minute passed. Then another. Then, another minute. Then… another minute passed. Then another minute passed. And another. A further minute passed quickly, followed by another minute, when suddenly, a different minute passed, followed by another different minute. And another. And yet another further different minute. A minute passed. I glanced at my watch. It was a minute past. This was it. A minute passed. After a moment, another minute passed. I waited a minute while a minute passed quickly past. And then, a minute which seemed to last an hour but was only a minute… passed. That was ‘A Minute Passed’, by John Finlissom. You can hear Episode Nine of ‘A Minute Passsed’ tomorrow night at a minute past. (Thanks to [montypython.net](http://montypython.net)) ---

**fierra** , I’ll have some chocolate Haagen Dazs. I’m not picky when it comes to flavor, just as long as it’s chocolate. For lunch today, tomorrow, or any other day, I’ll have whatever **thinksnow** has. **Mermaid** , are those Big Ass Whupping Sticks[sup]TM[/sup] for sale? I’ve got a customer I’d like to beat the living Thread Snot out of. And congratulations **Cobravert**. Hope you can quit for good. Well, that about covers everything. You can all go home now and take a couple days off. Just tell your boss I said it was OK. ---
