Oh AndrewR, I don't remember the taste of cloudberries. But if I did, are we talking european cloudberries or african cloudberries here?

Now that's a question for the ages. Some say they were indeed cloudberries. Other renditions of this historic event put the berries as of the rasp-kind (due to similarity in shape, if not in hue) and the source of the discussion to dock-working seamen, not web bumpkins, as the oldest chronicles of the event had it.
The most popular interpretation, albeit fanciful and self-serving, is that these jam-prone and vitamin-rich fruits were in this case talked of by a small group of travelling book-keepers, notorious for their attention to detail and fervor of getting into debates of all kinds.
As time passes, the chance of ever finding out the real truth behind what went on regarding those "berries" some time back in the early 21st century grows ever slimmer, though it keeps on inspiring thousands each passing moon.
Go to sleep now, child, we have a long day ahead of us tomorrow, those thetans aren't going to steambath themselves out of our bodies.

.....today, I can only move like C3PO. Yesterday I moved all my worldly posessions down a flight of stairs, into a truck and then (after driving acouple of miles) from the truck, into my new apartment.
So....sore...oilcan...
On the positive side, I now have a dedicated artroom.
And new couches....very cushy ones at at that.

Well it's an uneven ground, these first steps. It depends on how he acts upon it, Jason.
- How large was the jar, Andrew? Did it come with a miniature spoon, or a festive ribbon? I'm taking a lot of risks here but this could be the sign we've been waiting for.

So you're finally going to make that dream come true, singing through the whole song "one thousand bottles of beer on the wall".

LOL I fear to answer these questions on the basis that you are going to roast me.
No spoon or ribbon.
