Well, it _is_ a good way to pad post counts. I still donā€™t get how some people have such a high post count, but I guess if I had posted as steadily as they have in the entire time from when I registered to now (I took a year off from looking at this board because it was too overwhelming at the time), Iā€™d probably be up in the thousands, too. Mmmmā€¦pork chopsā€¦ ---

I never had a post party. I might if I reach 10,000 posts. Somewhere around July 2001. Hopefully the Reader would fly me to Chicago for an interview. ---
