ok all your points are well taken
& i do think you are right
& i agree we have probably milked this for all it is worth

til later in the month anyway


& i will order up the navigational chart
but only after the ends of the earth finally arrive here on cream hill
rather than beforehand
since i dont know if i could stand all that anticipation at once

& this earlier map order has been imminently expected since
tuesday

indeed
any funny thing that may actually keep happening here is as
much while waiting for the ends of the earth to arrive
as it is on the way to menhus

menhus itself has been doing positively yeoman work as a
backup or understudy attraction here & is in fact the only real
multipoint anyone has talked about visiting in any way
for several days
in heavy traffic
hahaha
not since djeret was last mentioned
last tuesday i think
hahahaha

yikes
we must be having a veritable
what was it called
ot
old testament
festival by now

but doesnt anyone care to really try pointing any more

& what is all this fluffing about
