. It would be what, only about 2:00 in the afternoon (14:00) on the 13th in Hawaii when Max posts at 9 in NZ

I think that's going to bethe weirdest part of the whole exercise, posting into a void. I'll probably have to post around 08:00 NZ time, as I'm going out later that morning, so I will have to post, and then wait hours for any response, except perhaps from Capital Kiwi. Even the West Islanders will be posting around 4 or 5 hours after me if they wait until 09:00 their time. The idea of my poor pathetic posts exposed to such prolonged silent scruitny gives me the screaming heebie-jeebies!

When I can't spell "scrutiny"? I don't think so!

Don't worry, Max. I'll be waiting to see what you say before I do my post ...

At this point I haven't the foggiest notion of what I'm going to say. But I'll wait for the scruitny of others quite happily. If I can't have the last word, I'm not going to regret having the second!

Seems that Max and CK have created a new word for looking closely at things.

No, no, Max, she said, writing for a weekly newspaper, not editing for one. Always blame it on the editor, didntcha know that?

she said, with cold and trembling fingers. Just sent this:

Dearest of Anu's,

There will be a thread begun on March 14th, in Information and Announcements, that you should check out, Dear One.
It will be started by Max Quordlepleen.


Love,

Jackie

In reply to:

It's done, she said, with cold and trembling fingers.


Someone get this brave woman some warm ointment and mittens to warm her wonderful, courageous hands!

Thanks, Jackie - I am sure we are ALL grateful.

Now, here's hoping he will actually take a look!

Ya know, not to downplay what we're doing or anything, but it seems to me that Anu kinda stole our thunder by mentioning the septennial in this week's theme. He might think we were copying his idea. 'Course, on the other hand, maybe that'll get more people to look at our thread.
