First, I deserve 50 lashes with a wet noodle for not doing this sooner. I meant to do it when it was a bit more current but life was hectic. No excuse, I know, but I never claimed to be a great friend! However, enough about me. This thread is for **Weirddave**. The man just passed the 2000 post mark (And it only took a little more than two years! ;)) and he deserves a little recognition, folks. _Recognition for what?_ you ask? Well, let me tell you. Dave is a great guy. Not just in that generic, “He’s a great guy” sense but truly a great person. He’s sweet, funny, charming, witty and he has a fantastic ear for listening and a wonderful shoulder to lean on. (I know I’m not the only one who has benefitted from some “Dave advice”.) He’s quite straightforward–a little disarmingly so, at times! 😉 He’s brutally honest–even when you don’t want him to be. However, he’s also very caring and friendly. He has great taste in movies and some very interesting musical tastes, as well! I think the world of Dave and I’m probably not the only one. Feel similarly? Please post! Tell Dave you think he’s the bee’s knees. Tell him you think he’s peachy keen. Tell him you think he’s all that and…whatever. Just tell him. Anyway, enough about Dave from _me_. If his ego is going to swell, everyone else who wants to come and gush about him can be held responsible! ---

**And** you’re peachy keen! Just kidding. Thanks for being there for…everyone? Don’t know you that well, but after talking with you through IM, you seem like a very big hearted person that anyone can get close to. Awww…bear hug! {{{weirddave}}} Congrats on your 2000 posts. Hope you post many more in the next two years. ---

Having met Dave, I can honestly say he’s a cool cat. Congratulations on 2000, and here’s hoping you survive our upcoming drinking contest to have 2000 more. 😉 PS. People named Dave are cool, I must say. -Dave 😃 ---

I have a picture of Me and Dave standing beside a sign that says “Mixed nuts” that will always make me laugh when I see it. Cheers Dave, I promise I’ll make Baltimore sometime. ---

Ah yes, Dave. He’s so very Dave. I wish I could describe the very groovy Dave-ness he exemplifies. He is so Dave, he’s damn near Jake. Congrats on the posts, Dave. Cheers to you. ---

Most people get a post count party with lots of beer, whiskey, pillow fights, scented oils, hottubs, debauchery and lots of doper women getting naked. I like this better. Thanks to all of you for the kind words. Although…now that I think about it, tradition and custom are the cornerstones of society, and I hesitate to mess with them, so any doper women who want to get naked and jump into this vat of jello, have at it! “Fast cars and explosions Party hats and motion lotion Let’s go down to the ocean And break out the tits and whiskey” -Mary Prankster ---
