Then one week when I had to monitor a sick family member, I caught up all the way back to the start - and still continued to keep up with all the updates. No, not too much time on my hands - but the same way Alex and friends made it all - you read it one bite at a time and sometimes take a few big helpings! :D Yes, I’ve read it all - when I found it, at first I just read what was new daily.

Neatorama took me about 4-5 days to fully peruse; like Emily I inhale 500 page novels in one sitting, so going thru the archives was a breeze.
