re: Formal Announcement From The New Self-Appointed Empress Of Mars 

@hummingrain That was intended more as a declarative than an imperative, but hey, if 21st-c. Terrans wanna start rawring at each other now, that *will* probably smooth a lot of diplomatic relations over when we make First Contact! (You all have about 230 years to work on that accent, no offense...)

commonplace book; trivia 

This is the semi-periodic update of my personal "commonplace book." ( en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commonpl )

I offer no guarantees whatsoever that any part of it will be entertaining. It's just a collection of personal notes and trivia. It's offered because it's easy to link to and might be mildly amusing to some-- and because I'd love to see someone else start one and let me browse it someday. 😽​

"it was my understanding there would... be no math" 

Call Graham’s number for a good time. I mean, you, the phone system, and the universe will be dead before you can finish dialing it, but it’s worth a try.

@kobi_lacroix You're VERY close on all of those. Shinty-Six is correct; Twentington is (AFAIK) from a different Britcom with a similar sense of humor. (HINT: ASK DAVE. IS DAVE THERE? HELLO, DAVE.)

Group X, not Band X, but full credit. And correct on cDonald's.

@kobi_lacroix (And a quillard dollars to anybody who can guess the fictional sources of all 14 of those "forbidden" numbers. HINT: The only one I made up myself was "infivenity.")
