Steve E Posted December 11, 2008 Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 Does 2008 seem like it's never going to end? There is a reason. According to the Time Service Department of the U.S. Naval Observatory in Washington, DC, a leap second will be added on December 31, 2008, making the year one second longer. So set your watches, Storyists. You don't want to miss those deadlines. -Thoth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marguerite Posted December 13, 2008 Report Share Posted December 13, 2008 **>chucklesAn extra leap second?! Wow! I feel the creative juices flowing already! I could write, like, a whole additional word! Now this forum is quoting fine. There must be gremlins in the feature requests section. (You think we overloaded it with too many posts? ) You can tell I'm writing again, because my procrastination quotient has gone way up today.

If the guys with the atomic clock can't get it right, what hope do I have of ever finding a watch that gets me places on time? IF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve E Posted December 13, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2008 If the guys with the atomic clock can't get it right, what hope do I have of ever finding a watch that gets me places on time? Hope? None. "Hope" was the catch phrase from the Clinton Administration. With Obama the catch phrase is "Change". So change your watch, change the time, change your underwear. (I can't believe I'm actually older than the President. What have I done with my life?) Anyway, maybe one of those watches with a built-in teleporter will help. -Thoth.

Steve E Posted December 13, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2008 An extra leap second?! Wow! I feel the creative juices flowing already! I could write, like, a whole additional word! It should be a short word. I'm planning to use my extra second for several carriage returns. Now this forum is quoting fine. There must be gremlins in the feature requests section. (You think we overloaded it with too many posts? ) Oh no! But at least they're not the dreaded Blue Button gremlins. You can tell I'm writing again, because my procrastination quotient has gone way up today. Happy longest year since 1992 to all, M Writing or not, M, it is always a pleasure. Happy Holidogs Everyone. -Thoth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
