I was born in 2/76, which is pretty darn close to 4/76. Not a lot of people realize that 476 is divisible by 4. If you add up the digits of 476, you get 17. I was 17 years old ten years ago, so I don’t think this is a coincidence. I’m averaging almost 3 posts a day, so watch out Q.E.D. I am coming after you. I think if I continued with the same average, and Q.E.D. never posted again, I would catch him in about 13 and one half years! Much ignorance has been cleared up in my mind in relation to: Chocolate Jesus, Death Rays, Batman’s fighting ability, Goat Felchers, Certain posters bathroom habits, and even the real identity of Cecil Adams. Sorry to all of you who opened this thread hoping for a Jack Handy reference. ---

**moejuck** , you’re putting way too much careful consideration into this. Don’t think – just do it! As you can see from my posting history, it works for me. 🙂 What? ---

Hey, my post is a tongue-in-cheek stab at the ridiculousness of people who make their “Thoughts on \_\_\_\_# posts” threads. Sorry if you didn’t get the sarcasm.
