    Wow, it seems like you have done very well, Dori!

    Hmmm my boast? I managed not banging my head against the wall when I really wanted to do so. Damn it now is that something to boast about?
    I sang of leaves, of leaves of gold, and leaves of gold there grew.

    I would like to mention that I have recently become a God and that you all should not worship me, because gods do not deserve to be worshipped by you commoners.

    Not to rain on your parade, Night, but the search lists only the most recent 500 results in any search. The ones before that doesn't get listed.

    Good luck on the new job, Weisinheimer!

    And Aimus, welcome to the Club!

    I have no parade to be rained on so be my guest.

    You mean since October 2006 the term hasn't been used?

    No I was viewing oldest to newest and so it showed only the oldest 500...


    Edit: there have been 500 posts referring to litnet since the 28th of January this year.
