Aww, thank you :)

Okay, ThisCat, it's been five days since I started taking note of the numbers and lines in your signatures. I think I'll wait another bit, but I already have a theory or two ;)

I never noticed that.  I think it's probably a poem of some kind?
Hmm...

I know! I'm going to need at least 16 days ;)

Hmmm. Is anyone else surprised by this awkward silence even with ten members currently online? (Ten usually very active members, even)

I used to do that all the time, because our last cat always came running when someone started singing. I usually don't like to sing while anyone can hear, though.

You should do the national anthem though.

Yep.  I'm not really sure what was going on, but it seems to have cleared up a bit.

Oh, that would be cool.  It could go in the music thread!

Oh... IDEA! Wait a second, Eich, I'll edit this in a minute. Or a second. Or any short amount of time.

I'm trying to get some writing done. It's not working so well.

Maybe I will!

I'm waiting for other people to say something, that's why I am silent.

Writing not going well here either. And it's supposed to be the day where we write double.

Not sure if these 10 silent samurai include me but I make an effort to log in and out depending on whether I'm actually on the forum tab. Seeing lots of people online but no or little activity is a regular thing here as far as I can tell.

Oh, that would be cool.  It could go in the music thread!

Or the vocaroo thread for that matter.You should sing the American anthem Eich.

Ooooh say can you seeeee .......... Oh say can you seeee?

I don't remember how it goes.

*Puts on anthem-knowing glasses.* Let's see if I can remember! Oh say, can you see by the dawn's early light what so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming, whose bright stars and broad stripes... er... through the perilous night were so gallantly streaming?

I don't even know what championship it was, but a few years ago Italy lost to Spain 4-0 in a final match. I was at a summer camp at the time, and we had a lot of fun reinventing the Italian anthem ("Fratelli di Spagna, la Spagna s'è desta...").

Your "anthem knowing glasses" wouldn't happen to be "google glasses" would they =P

If I did sing it, I'd do the obnoxious vocal gymnastics that some singers like to do with that song.
Pfft, that's about as much as I remember.  "... banner yet wave... (something about explosions) was proof through the night..."
Yeah.  That's all I got.

Aw, and now my nation has officially declared its shame of me.
