And why should I care if it’s 200 or 2000?  
Like I’ll ever reach 20 HA!😃

A truly notable accomplishment. Mr. C has enriched us with 2000 posts, each one infused with grace, wit, and intelligence. Each a veritable…

::snort::

Shit, I can’t keep this up.

Weed out the ones that mention sex, beer, and goats, and whaddaya got? Like, a dozen meaningful thoughts?

Oh, hell…that still puts him a dozen ahead of me.

Happy 2000, ya big lug. Keep 'em coming.:)🙂

This is the best cynical one I could come up with on short notice:

“What should such fellows as I do  
crawling between earth and heaven?  
We are arrant knaves, all;  
believe none of us.”  
–Hamlet, Act 3, Scene i

I left out the “get thee to a nunnery” reference, which is part of that same speech, as being a far cry from either of our preferences. 😉

By the way, I really loved your post in this thread:

My compliments to you!

Someone said you were an ex-college or professional football kicking prospect. Is this true? Please share this with us!

Very true. Before “The Accident”, I could regularly pull off punts averaging 60 yards from line of scrimage. And, to boot, I was pretty damn accurate with the placement, too. But, alas, after being rear-ended at a red light by a lady doing about 45, I can no longer get my leg up as far as before, limiting me at 45-50 yards.

Well…a post party. How 'bout that? Does this mean free drinks? Don’t mind if I do!

Oh yeah…and congrats Mr. C. Although I’m sure your cynicism would frown at this type of spontaneous celebration…ummm, except for Lady Godiva over there on the couch!

Congratulations, Mr. Cynical!

You DO know what they did to the guy who was caught “peeping” at Lady Godiva, don’t you?

I’ll add my congrats in a shameless attempt both at boosting post count and obligating each and every one of you to notice when I reach 2000.

If you’re really that cynical, did you worry this thread title wasn’t typo and you had reverted to 200 posts?

(That’s \*my \* excuse, and I’m sticking with it 😃 )

Have a good time, but just don’t try to put 2k candles on the cake!

Happy 2K, Mr C! Let’s see, you got here about 20 days before me yet have about 4 times the number of posts…

those were 20 VERY BUSY days.

Congrats to our “official” male slut, from your runner-up. It takes quite a man to 'outslut" me. 😃
