Okay, this here is my 500th post here at the SDMB. I’ve been thinking a lot about what to write. I mean, do I soil it with a rant, so I go off on some philosophical tangent, do I divulge my inner most darkest secrets, what? I mean, 500s a big thing, no?

But then I saw some other posts I want to post to before they get too long. So, I figured a little self acclimation was good enough.

So I’m off to post something stupid somewhere else. But at least my 500 has a post of it’s own.

Congrats on 500, **El Elvis Rojo**. I’ve hit 500 twice now (lost over 300 posts in the crash) and managed to waste both of them. Maybe I’ll do better with 1000…

Happy posting!

Congratulations, **Elvis**! You may be halfway to 1000, but think of it this way: you’re only one-third of the way to 1500. (which is the next barrier I’m hoping to break ;p) 🙂

Have an awesome time posting, but don’t necessarily be like me! 😉
