Well, after this posting,seven more are needed, I’ll be in the 1000th posting club. Whooooo Hooooo. Is there some kind of ceremony? Perhaps a nice watch or something? ---

This just just to notify you that your 1000th post will be valid. I checked the About this message board forum, and you have made zero test posts (unlike others who shamelessly pad their numbers with THOSE sort of posts) 🙂 ---

Wait, so I can’t even have **one** test post or I’m out of the running?..That’s not fair. Maybe some of you guys/gals sprang from the mind of G\*d with UBB code imbedded in your brain, but I gotta test things sometimes… ---

I would like to thank the Academy of Dopers who have no lives and actually read the mundane and truly pointless ramblings of a congential idiot. As many here well know that it is not by Quality, but Quantity of which I strive. If it were not for this Wonderful Board and it’s spectularly sarcastic, glib, smartass,flippant and sometimes, thought provoking, or just provoking, members who consistantly come up with the brain candy questions that roll though my mind like mental tumbleweeds, of which I must answer to validate my existance, I would be reduced to babbling like the village fool to my dog all day, instead of half. I dedicate my award on behalf the “Save The Lemming” Foundation ::::_Orchestra cues up_::: (Raising Voice, eyeing the barbie doll amazon trying to escort me politely off stage) AND THE “THIRD WORD THAT ENDS IN ‘GRY’ RESEARCH COMMITTEE.”…(cut to hemerroid commerical.) ---
