This is 505. I don’t even know what my 500th was. Probably something stoopid. Grrrr… I was going to post something grand to celebrate. Now I’ve to wait another 495. Darn, darn, darn… ---

I’m simply much too sweet ‘n’ shy 😃 to throw myself a 500th post party, so I’ll just join yours … also somewhat belatedly. ---

Happy 500, Warmgun! (and happy 100 to me 😃 I just reached 100 today, and was afraid these count parties were done away with when I wasn’t looking.) ---

(cracks open a beer hands it to Ross) Here! Now sing along, “Happiness is a…” (Takes Ellen by the arm, in a southern gentlmanly fashion, and two-steps to Ross’ singing) “Ellen, thanks, for join the party - and what lovely dancer you are.” (anounces to the room) “Thank you all.” Sincerly, Steven ---

Err, guess I’m up to 2 **2** 5, not 233. I guess it’s a bit early to celebrate, after all. ---

Let me be the first to congratulate you for **600** posts! (I always come early to the party, so I get to scarf all the “irregulars” among the hors d’oeuvre) 😉
