ever drifting,
sometimes doting
over things that mean the world to
Doctor Michael Rowlands
In the tank he's grooving,
ever sifting, sometimes smoothing,
of the things that mean the world to
Doctor Michael Rowlands
(Are you still floating Doctor Michael Rowlands?)
Drifting as the time goes by
Across the inner cosmos he is calling.
His tank is isolating.
In his mind, he's elevating
All the things that mean the world to
Doctor Michael Rowlands
(Are you still floating Doctor Michael Rowlands?)
In the liquid he will ride,
Rehearsing for the final act of time.
(Oz is everfloating)

I'll be dropping by tomorrow twice. Once at 11:11am and once at 11:11pm Florida time.
The one at 11pm might be tough since it's past my bedtime but I'll make the exception for this historic occasion.
Unless of course I forget.

Oooh, thanks for the reminder! I'll be at work in the a.m. (more's the pity...) and NaNoing in the p.m., but I promise to check in at least one of those times.

I'll be at a meeting in the morning, so I may remember or forget. The evening is out of the question, as it will be the Sabbath and I will be offline.
But anyway, happy 11-11-11.

Meh -- I'll be happy if I hit "submit" somewhere in the vicinity of 11:11.

LOL!
100 posts and a month of residency when many have been here for almost a decade and are cruising towards 50,000 posts!
Still, that doesn't seem to matter so much here and the fact so many of you have been around for so long speaks volumes about the spirit of the Watch, as does your welcome. I keep expecting to wake up to a sea of n00b flaming, realizing with sadness the welcoming nature of this place was all a dream. In the meantime...

Then, again, some of us have been here for at least a decade (if you count the original board) and aren't even close to 50,000 posts.Shaun das Schaf wrote:LOL!

I was lurking here for about 3 years before even registering, and see how "productive" I've been since then - considering that I've been here almost every day when work has been slowish...Shaun das Schaf wrote:LOL!

I was actually thinking of at least taking a photo of my wristwatch or something at 11:11:11, but a stupid phone call at about 11:05 ruined everything.
