We’ve never met, but I’ve enjoyed all of your stories. Happy Birthday and 1000th ---

July?!?! I read the first dozen posts thinking your birthday was September sometime, so I went out and bought you this HUGE sapphire (Sept’s birthstone) and was thinking how cool it was that you were a Virgo like me. Hell, I don’t even KNOW what July’s birthstone is. And what are you, on the cusp of Leo? What in the Sam Hill am I gonna do with this huge gemstone? _harumphs so grumbingly that she forgets to wish Una a Happy Birthday and a Happy 1K Post Milestone_ ---

OK, this will likely be my last post. But I have to keep thanking those who stop by, so as long as kind people do so… **InternetLegend** - Yes, it worked, I had to post again. But it only works for **new** posters, so eventually this thread will die. (Una is also an "Internet Legend herself. Hmmm…Una is speaking about herself in the Third Person again. That’s not good…) **monster** - Thank you monster, that’s very nice. Love your sig, BTW. Jail! (snort!) **VaHermit** - Well, a VaHermit is just a friend I haven’t met! Hmm…that sounds lame - maybe I need more sleep. But seriously, I will be out in Richmond in a month or so again for Virginia Power… **CrankyAsAnOldMan** - long time no hear from! Well, I would suggest you take the sapphire, and send it to **pepperlandgirl** , since it’s her birthstone. Or make it into an elaborate piece of body art, get an erotic piercing, and send me the pic. 😉 Well, we’ll see if anyone else new stops by. If not, this thread will faaaade away. ---

**Anth** … I don’t usually post at these things, but for a fellow KC’er, I’ll make an exception. Congrats! I see you are almost to 1050 already! You’ve been busy! Seriously, though, you’re good to have around and deserve all the hoopla. You’re the best kind of poster; thoughtful, considerate, blunt when you need to be and subtle when you don’t. Here’s to a thousand more! _:holds up a bottle of John Brown Ale, brewed right here in KC:_ ---

Now someone else posted, so out of politeness I must thank them. Today’s winner is… **sdimbert** - Well thank you very much for posting! However, I really prefer the Boulevard Unfiltered Wheat - it’s probably my all-time favorite beer - and brewed right here in KC to boot! ---

Am I too late ? \ - guess so. Anyway, happy 1000th, coal goddess & ultimate impossible doper crush. Here, have a hug. Very cool posts, except for the hot ones (not that they’re not very cool, too, only at the same time they’re - OK, you got it). Keep them coming. S.
