Eivind, you need to change the front page from "Postman" to "Poster". A "Postman" is one who delivers the mail (snail mail). A "Poster" is more relevant to someone who posts on Forums (unless you're a large piece of thick paper on a wall... y'know, poster?)

Ok. Time to go back to my Norwegian lessons..... Smile

Congratulations Cliff!!!

Not in the UK. Here a "postman" is one who doesn't deliver the mail, because they're always on bloody strike.

Code:

"The Ugliest Man In The World"
  BoyScout campfire skit
Cast: MC, Ugliest Man with blanket over his head, various volunteers

(MC and UM enter stage right.)
MC: Can I get a volunteer brave enough to gaze upon the face of the
 The Ugliest Man in the World? So far no one has been able to stand the sight of him for more than a second"
Volunteer: I will! (volunteer approaches UM, MC raises blanket a little...volunteer gets horrid look on his face and screams and runs away)
MC: Any other brave men? (this proceeds until everyone in the patrol has been scared off)
MC: Surely there is one brave man in the Audience! Scoutmaster! Come look at the ugliest man!
(Scoutmaster approaches UM.. MC raises blanket... UM sees Scoutmaster and screams and runs away)


AVR Freaks presents a small play "The Ugliest AVR Freak in The World"
starring Lee Theusch as the Ugliest Man. No One has Ever gazed upon the face of Lee Theusch and lived to tell about it. He has been described by various survivors as a Potted Plant, a Chimp, a Pussy Cat and various other critters. Will he reach 10,000 posts and remain unseen?
Keep watching and Find Out!

I think Lee is an automated A.I. program at Atmel tuned to recognize and respond to ineptitude and incompetence, coupled with an extensive knowledge base. The choices of cute animal avatars and Waupun, Wisconsin are part of the diversionary tactic.

They're currently working on incorporating Lee into Anna Konda so "he" can slither around at will, dispensing curmudgeonly pithy retorts to all he encounters.

Congratulations Mr Cliff Clawson,

I came across your achievement status of 10k and am thrilled
that my postings were " < 10 ! " and had the privelege of being
guided by a person of your stature.

Our best wishes from all AVR Freaks and look forward to your
20k and more 10k people.

whopsa, 10k is pretty much, my hat off there, a good value for an pull up! Ill cant afford an stk600 but shares a bear if you'd like, imaginary at least...

But have any ever had the thought in their mind that this brave hart might actually answering his own post?? Could it be that he actually first asks a question using one ID and then answering using his well known 10k valued ID. Maybe the whole freaky forum is populated by only one person talking with him self!!!!! Shocked . WHO AM I.......... WHERE AM I..........

Oh, yes. And my real name actually is D.. - oh! almost spoke it out loud. OTOH, not that it would have mattered. I'm only speaking to myself. Frankly, I'm suspecting that all we are, well "all I am", is a simulation in a server in Norway. Matrix IV if you (uhmmm, "I") like.

There's quantity, and then there is quality.
Cliff has given us both.
