They're not posted on the same day, the first post of the 3rd Teacup is a copy of the 2nd café's opening post. I hazard a guess this is because the 2nd thread was split and so the third had no first poss of its own so it was copied.

The shortest-lasting Café (9th) lasted for a mere five days, but it only contained 450 posts (not sure why) and was renamed the Recreation Room NCC-1701!
This was during an Aprils Fools joke where the Entmoot was converted to a Star Trek board. A new cafe was probably started before the other one was full to start afresh after the joke.

CH... you have too much time on your hands

Thanks for the great birthday yesterday, everyone ^^ And I get to celebrate all over again when I get back home Tomorrow night...

That being said... I must begin to pack!

I'll be in and out today but I won't be around at all tomorrow... I will be in a hire car and then in an airport and airplane and then another airport and then my friend's car as she drives me home....

Thanks all

I will definitely try to travel safe... I just hope the plane has the same mind frame as I do...

It's going to be a full moon tomorrow after all...

Besides, what are the odds of a plane crashing on a night with a full moon? Probably much much smaller than on any other day

Sis, are you seated comfortably? Do you want an extra pillow? Tea? Cookies? *is determined to pamper the hardworking Sis*

Pretty good! I am singing along ^_^
Plus I'm about to start practicing a new piece on my piano. "Country Gardens" by Percy Grainger. I <3 Percy Grainger.
My neck is still dramatic though. I think I need a good massage, but no luck so far.
Ah well, it will go back to normal some day... (I hope )

Tack tack Vargen!

Coffeehouse and the Magical Traffic Light

Everyday when I come biking happily and without bother towards where I live I have to pass a busy carroad which has a cross-over for pedestrians with a traffic light. When I am coming from my University and in the direction of where I live the road goes upwards towards a hill where I live and really I need all the momentum I can get to go upwards without dying of fatigue
Yet every single, time, and I mean, truly!, EVERY single time I approach that traffic light it switches from red to green, sending all the cars on the road to a halt and letting me ride across it like a spoiled kid It's starting to freak me out and I'm wondering if the traffic light has a crush on me or if it generally just likes helping cyclists up the labourous hill ahead. But it seems very unique because in many instances I approach the light and I see people going my way standing there, waiting.. for the green light and then I come along and what do ya know!, a brilliantly green radiation glows upon the scene.

My question: Is it luck or divine intervention by the Traffic God?

Maybe you are lucky to get this divine intervention of the traffic god?

I really hate flying... why can't I just wake up in my own bed tomorrow instead of going through all that annoyingness?
