Woo! It must be **Mnementh’s** fault. He was… distracting! 😉 And I must say. Till you’ve heard **Esprix** say “Nice titties, babe” (note: not about _me_), you haven’t lived. Thanks for the 5,000! ---

First, welcome to the SDMB, **hematopoiesis**. Had to look that name up. I think I know what it means now. Mind you, I don’t know what the hang you’re talkin’ about, so, I’ll move to say “Congrats” to **Esprix** for the 5000-something post mark. The balloons are on order … should be here by the time you get to 10,000. ---

I only have 30+ posts and it took me 2 years to get there…(no, mabey im the one with the problem…ah, who cares, congratulations anyway) ---
