Right now, bystanders Posterometer is just 3 short of a -fifth- digit. Then he goes back to -1-, with 4-nothings following. :lol2:

<<Didactyly (from Greek di-="two" plus δακτυλος = "finger") or bidactyly is the condition of having two digits on each limb, as in the Hypertragulidae and Two-toed Sloth, Choloepus didactylus. In humans this name is used for an abnormality in which the middle digits are missing, leaving only the thumb and fifth finger, or big and little toes. Cloven-hoofed mammals (such as deer, sheep and cattle - Artiodactyla) have only two digits, as do ostriches.>>

Just a little while ago, he had 9997. Now i see he has 9999. By the time you read this, owlice, you should have heard a tremendous KA-BOOM, as he goes thru the 10,000 post barrier. :mrgreen:

OOPS, He just beat me by a whisker. But i didn't hear anything. Bummer :!: :lol2:

10000 posts. Wow. What a sight the number is. It smacks of perfection.

I don't know, when I see that number, I'm reminded of those ancient astronomers who thought that everything that orbits in the universe (excluding the Earth, of course, because the Earth was supposed to be center of the universe) followed perfect circular paths. It's so perfect you can't believe it, and precisely because of that it must be true.

Of course, to uphold his perfection, bystander should stop posting now. Let's hope he thinks more about our enlightenment than his own round-figure perfection.

That's a new definition of 12-21-12 or just possibly the end of the world! :shock:

But I'll be in pretty bad posting shape during the upcoming weeks. These last few weeks of the "fall term" is murder for us teachers. :(

<<The 500 Hats of Bartholomew Cubbins is a children's book, written by Dr. Seuss and published by Vanguard in 1938. Unlike the majority of Dr. Seuss's books, it is written in prose rather than rhyming and metered verse. Geisel, who collected hats, got the idea for the story on a commuter train from New York to New England while he was sitting behind a businessman wearing a hat. Set in feudal times, the story begins in the Kingdom of Didd, when King Derwin is riding through a street past Bartholomew Cubbins, a poor boy in the market. Bartholomew removes his hat, according to the laws, but another hat mysteriously appears; when he attempts to remove this one too, another one appears again, and this continues, even as he removes more and more hats, each growing in extravagance and beauty from the 451st hat onwards. Eventually, as Bartholomew is being threatened with death, the 500th hat, studded with massive gems and gilding, comes off and Bartholomew's head is bare again. Stunned by the beauty of the hat, King Derwin grants him reprieve and trades him 500 gold coins for the 500th hat.>>
