Ah but I could just register a new ID and stop the countdown in its tracks.

Oh yeah.
But it looks like a nice day for some flying  ... and the forecast for tomorrow and the day after tomorrow is looking pretty good as well.
Do you have any technical problems that could result in a stop of the countdown ??

Ah but that's kind of out of my control. I'll only post if someone asks a question for which I have half an idea I might know a bit of the answer
(u no hu - keeping the countdown at 7 for the time being) |

| Well, if Cliff could just reach his usual posts/day we'd have this thing done and over with at midnight or so (UTC). He's really teasing us now! I have a piece of cake tuck away in the fridge for the occasion... |

Oh, the tension, the tension... Muse come to me:
There is a top poster from Finchingfield
His postings per day has the highest yield
The rest of us wait
for the special trait
when Cliff Lawson touch down in 10K-field
A bit of a cheat with that last rhyme, I know... Le'sse...
There is a top poster from Essex
Whose post-rate per day makes you perplex
He has us on hold
although he's been told
to reach 2710 posts (counting in hex)
So now there's a problem with the rythm in that last line... Hmmm...
There was a young plummer of Leigh
...
Oh, that's been written already. Bummer! And it's not about Cliff.. (or is it!?!)
There was a top poster, a real 'freak
Whose postings where just about to peak
when he strangely fell quiet
A sudden post diet
might stop him from 10K in this week
So now there is no geographical name as the last word of the first line. I give up. Come on Cliff |

Johan: Have you been copying from Vogons?
Haiku:
Cliff, you post a lot.
Your boss must be tollerant.
Live long and prosper.
Yipes! I'm terrible. |

I am the boss.
(OK folks, there's another post for you, T-5)
PS ....5....
"Houston, we have a problem", countdown paused, Cliff going to Venice for the weekend to drop his mother-in-law into the Grande Canal - I kid you not!
BTW I think Johan's limericks were BRILLIANT! |

It's RetroCliff!
As Cliff came up to the abyss
His consciousness gave quite a shift
One part said "Go high"
While the other "Deny"
And the split gave life to RetroCliff |
