Thank you - thank you… While I can never hope to attain such greatness as Esprix who recently celebrated his 5000th post, I nevertheless puff my manly chest out with pride that I have managed to make it this far.

I wish I’d managed to take that long… even taking into account my pre-signup lurking time, it took me less than a year. ---
