When science-fiction meets comedy in a dark spaceport, somebody is going to pull out a plasma cannon and settle the matter...

I have some Irish roots; no Japanese in the mix anywhere, so haiku is not my thing. Are limericks allowed?<P>A crack mercenary named Schlock
At Breya's new implants did gawk.
So "in lust" was the guy,
Though his comments were wry,
Breya shot him down--lock, barrel, stock.<P>* * * *

Hey, am I just confused or did our status as members of the keenspot board change. Now we're "Junior Keenspotters" I can't remember what we used to be, but I think it changed. Is that a result of a new message board, or did someone think we were cool enough to have new titles, or did we all just post alot of things.

Welcome to the new board, Souper! And stayler! Yes, your new status is due to the fact that this board has a different membership database than the old one. Oh well. At least with this board there is a greater variety in the rankings. If you post enough (like a thousand times) you get to be a "Keenspot Despot."<P>Obligatory on-thread poetry:<P>There once was a U.B.B. board
where keenspacers posted in hoards
But Schlock got keenspotted
The old posts were blotted
and new posting tallies were scored.<P>Lost your old status?
Post here! Post often, with flair,
and gain a new rank

It looks like the flaming folder number has been knocked down to 10 too. Well you know what they say, "Change is good"......or atleast they do in lion king. I don't really recall hearing it anywhere else. It's just one of those thing that sounds like a phrase that everyone used to use before I was born, or old enough to comprehend. I guess I shouldn't assume quite as much. If you can understand what I just wrote I'll be glad, cause it's kinda confusing I think.
