Um,just wondering,why'd you both post pics of planets?

I did it just to illustrate the float of time.... :-)

Although it takes only 27.322 days on average for the Moon to complete one orbit around the Earth (the sidereal month), as a result of the Earth's orbital motion around the Sun it requires about two additional days for the Earth, Moon and Sun to acquire the same relative geometry. So on average the number of days between two similar phases (e.g. between one full moon and the next full moon) is about 29.531 days. This period is referred to as a lunation, lunar month, or synodic month.

The moon is a moon and the sun with all its splended little solar flares is a star. Neither are planets.

In reality, one more month really does matter to some people....... 8-|

I assume you mean the flow of time....

I meant that time floats upon the sea of our very own thoughts impacted by our wishes and dreams.... X-D

Faded ideas float in the fancy like half-forgotten dreams.

Ah I see. Well in that case;

I wasted time, and now doth time waste me;

For now hath time made me his numbering clock:

My thoughts are minutes; and with sighs they jar

Their watches on unto mine eyes, the outward watch,

Whereto my finger, like a dial's point,

Is pointing still, in cleansing them from tears.

Now sir, the sound that tells what hour it is

Are clamorous groans, which strike upon my heart,

Which is the bell: so sighs and tears and groans

Show minutes, times, and hours"

"Time is a character

It does strange things

Moves in Strange Directions,

And at strange speeds

Don't trust Time

Time will always get you in the end"

Grant Naylor, The Last Human

[sorry, just my contribution to the time-related poetry and discussion]

That's a nice (piece of a?) poem, captain tau, I like it. :-)

It's already here looking much for the night of the poetry (festival in Holland once a year)

I don't know if the moderators also liked this

It's actually the introduction to a novel. The first line should actually "Time is a character in this novel". Inthe novel, time is a constant background, hidden, character. I thoughly recommend the Omnibus of Infinity Welcomes Careful Drivers and Better Than Life - they're brilliant and incredibly funny.

Thank you, I don't know if Grant Naylors novels are sold in the Netherlands, but I can look for it.

On this moment I'm trying to read all Discworldnovels from Terry Pratchet by the library. I have read now +/- 15 of the +/- 30 books (hey, that a good idea for a license 8-

I think between us, we probably know quite a bit about Star Wars.

We'll start with the basics. It was originally a trilogy of films, revolutionary in their time, telling the story of a farmboy who realises his destiny to become the galaxy's saviour through a journal toward knighthood of a religious group sworn to uphold peace. The three films expanded into what we now know as the EU - Expanded Universe, which includes novels and video games.

In the 90s, the three films became six with a prequel trilogy that told how an innocent slave boy became the main bad guy that we see in what is now known as the Original Trilogy.

Does that help?

It was originally a series of 9 films that started in the middle because it would "sell better" and he needed that to get the series off the ground. However due to monetary issues and time constraints the last three movies (episodes 7, 8, and 9) were compressed into episode 6. The last trilogy was originally going to be about Luke searching for his sister (who wasn't originally Leia) and confronting the Emperor. Also, C3PO and R2D2 are the only characters to appear in all 6 films (Obi doesn't count). It was originally about THEIR adventures, but that changed. Later after Lucas lost his mind and made the PT out of nowhere, he made the whole thing about Anakin.

Also, lastly. Never ever believe anything on supershadow.com

It's a joke site.

An AT-AT you say...

Hope we will hear something more about this soon then.

Minifigs, pieces and etc. I personally think it will be a good set.

The previous one was awesome!!

And the history so far is that all remakes has been good latley...

...or I can strech myself to even say ALL remakes has been good!

Until otherwise has been proved.
