When the poet requested it to break break break on its cold gray rocks it obligingly broke broke broke.

Which as the poet was Alfred Lord Tennyson didn't surprise him at all but if it had been me I would probably have had a stroke.

Ogden Nash, 'A Beginner's Guide to the Ocean'

Last week, like every week, I requested that you send Stuff.

People, you are amazing. Boy, have you sent Stuff. Wonderful Stuff. Fantastic Stuff. Stuff that would make the wider galaxy sit up and take notice.

'Hey, would you look at Earth, being all pretty?'

'Get a load of those flowers!'

'Hey, what about the bugs? They're cute!'

'Get a gander at all those old castles and houses and things! Don't you just know there's a story around every corner? You could host a century's-worth of mystery weekends!'

You get the idea. And that's not all. Yesterday, as I was compiling this week's issue, I got a last-minute wonder lobbed across the virtual transom. Some folks FWR knows live in California. And they watched a Space-X launch. From their backyard. And then those lovely people sent us the video. Which you can see on this page. Please ooh and aah, as I did.
That should keep them guessing over in Alpha Centauri. They're probably laying out the best china right now.

In other Post news, we have more stories for you. This week brings the final episode of Paulh's 'Mister President, Nebraska Is Missing!' If you haven't had time to catch up, the link will be available throughout this year's run. Read the stories, folks: there are a variety of genres to choose from here. Imagine: you can actually pick how you want your intelligence insulted. We're so much better than the mainstream media that way.

As always, please read, comment, and share around the planet. Also send more Stuff. All these surprises renew the editor's interest in life.
