Good Lord I also made 1k

Out of the corner of my tearful eye I noticed that I made my post #1000!

I am elated, exhilarated, jubilant, overjoyed, ecstatic and happy!

Time to get that 12 year old wine out of the cellar.

And you overshot by 2, guess you'll have to post another 998 times.

congratulations - just noticed I did it too and I don't even know which post it was. I am going to buy that 60 year old port myself - I am the same age as the port (I bought a bottle of it on my 40th - it was soooooo good). Unfortunately, I cannot afford the US$1,200 that it now costs.

so I am taking donations -- Help a poor old man buy himself a drink

donate now!

Congratulations Grim and Henri, a fantastic accomplishment only a few posters have achieved! No wine for me, just a couple of microbrews.

Grats. I'm counting every post now till my k.

That's possibly because I don't post much at all.

Well, congratulations. But keep in mind that it isn't how many posts you have, rather what you've done with your posts. For example, I respect Ancient Dragon far far more than, say, christina>you because his posts are focused on helping people while hers are yapping and playing posting games. Both have a respectable post count, but AD has used his posts more productively, in my opinion.

Not so fast, bumsfeld's first name is Henri. Read that in one of his posts.

Judging from your avatar, you must be one of those pinkos?

Even a blind chicken hits a kernel of corn from time to time. Which makes think your problem is not that you are blind.

You are right, I am just color blind, but you are obviously not.
