   You couldn’t be more specific about the moon, Tim? :)

   Brewster: Eyes wide shut as usual, I see.

   And what a fitting name for creatures that live on Uranus.

   Brewster should challenge their king to a high-stakes poker game.

   A royal flush could wipe them off the face of the moon!

   Hopefully, that moon is not Gnastok 7.

    Actually, I LIKED “Gulliver’s Travels”, the further G. got away from Lilliput the better. Unfortunately I’m the only one I know who seems to “get” some of Swift’s humor. E.g.: a certain people doesn’t write left to right like us, or right to left like the Arabs, or top to bottom or bottom to top like some other peoples, but lines askew, corner to corner, “like ladies in England”. For some reason I find that excruciatingly funny. Alas, no one else does. :P

    hey Ray C, that was a great novel, nice comment. And Rakkav, it’s a shame more people have never discovered Mr Swifts political satire. Most people just read it as a kids fictional book without realizing it was written as political satire for the times.

    At least our spleens are safe as the Lilpootians are pretty much the same size as one.Send Winky in with one of Dr. Mel’s whacky inventions.

    Lilpootians of Uranus. Sounds like an embarassing disease.

    Looks like they’re gonna colonicise him.

    Rakkav: Looks like your record is still intact!
    bmwk12ltc: It wasn’t a bad song, either (although the song and the book had nothing in common).
    Charlie: If I made you groan, don’t read Jo Jo’s comment!!

    Rakkav: I loved ‘Gulliver’s Travels’, and found it quite humorous.

    Margueritem: Excellent! Now if you or someone could just tell me how to boldface and underline (italics I can handle)…

    Given the relative size of the (moonlet), it’s probably one of those little bitty ones in the rings around…uh, guys, I think I just figured out why it’s not named.
