if you rename 'saturday' "doobry", then the manifesto's premise to rename 'friday' "poets" should, on the basis of the rationale for 'poets day', actually be "poetd"; which doesn't really sit well at all...
oh well, such is life. love always,

[and i am still waiting for a reply to my advice of my willingness to join the thingites... : ( ]

ooh sorry Astroboy, I try and keep up with all the new applications - I included the new message gadget on the manifesto to amke it a bit easier but occassionaly I just miss them. sorry about that. 
Meanwhile, Yes Poets and Poetd, is one we've encountered before, it works if you drop the idea of Poets being an abbreviation or "Push of Early Tommorw Sat
" and just take it as a name, whole in itself that enshines the principles of P.O.E.T.S (I.E 'Take It Easy. 
)but is not hindbound by awakward and unfortunate letter combinations. 
And on that note:
Astroboy 69 - aardvark mutineer, keeper of the heraldic ants, hereby pro-claim'ed!

Here is your Spork. 
Welcome to the Clan .(at last.)

Personally, I resent having to insert vowels between consonants when they're not already there in the spelling of the word...
