Judging from your post count, you’re not all that silent. 🙂

Hey, Sylence, congrats and quityerbitchin!  
Let’s see, the 50th anniversary is the Diamond, so you’re at 500 now so that makes this…uh, well something a helluva lot spiffier than compressed carbon!

_I’m_ happy for you! And just to show it, here’s some kwik-shop jerky and a slightly cooled 6-pack.

To you!

Bravo, Sy, keep it up, always glad to hear from you. You were here when I got here - were you on the AOL board?

**TVeblen:** Is it Jack Link’s jerky? 🙂

**beatle:** Nope, never frequented the AOL board. Or AOL itself, for that matter. All of my posting (such as it is) has been here.

**SterlingNorth:** I just called. They’ll be over as soon as they’ve finished with the dining room set. 😉

No, I’m NOT just padding my post count. I really am showing my concern for my own number, as well as congratulating Sy.

Congrabulations, Sy!

Now how many do I have?

I brought the cigars. Cuban.

Here ya go, Sy, wrap yourself around this Cohiba. Yep, it’s big. Should last all day if you smoke it right.
