Many European countries celebrate the Christian festival of "Corpus Christi" as a public holiday. That's tomorrow, June 11th, this year (it's a "movable" thing, related to the date of Easter).
Why would anyone celebrate a town in Texas?

Too late. From here it's straight downhill for me. But I'm not complaining.

I panicked! I refreshed a few times, e-mailed Alphapheemail, restarted the computer...tried to log on about twelve times, called my dad to see if he was able to log on and then the sever went back up when we were talking.

Please M Turic, don't ever let that happen again, I might loose my mind!

Oh right...that already happened...

Well, I just want to thank Alex for timing the unexpected collapse of the backend at a convenient time for the Downunderverse residents. All five of us (11 if you count imaginary friends) appreciate the consideration. Personally, I was reading the inside of my eyelids at the time (and wondering just who the bloody hell graffitied "U sUX" on there, and "4 a gud time, phone Marc on...". What a cheek!).

Cheers,
Marc

See message #32 above

The rhyme is assonant: sol / Ascensión (both end with stressed "o").
