(bowing) Thank yew, thank yew.

Since I have no virgins (nor even sluts) handy to sacrifice, I can think of no better way to celebrate this delightful pagan evening than to post for my 1000th time.

I’d like to thank all of the mundane and pointless stuff that has floated to the surface of my consciousness, scumlike, and demanded to be scraped off and shared with all of you people.

I’d also like to thank you, the Members of the Board, who have conversed with, debated, argued with, spit at, flamed, flirted with, ignored, and otherwise _not gotten me banned from_ this medium, despite my best efforts. I hope you’ve enjoyed dodging my slime as much as I’ve enjoyed slinging it.

Finally, I’d like to thank Dog, whose profane wisdom has fartfully guided my flingers to trype sloughfully, with foreplay and hindthought, these deletable words. In thigh mane I play.

your longhaired hillbilly,  
TennHippie

Have you been through the secret initiation yet?

Does that include the holy circumcision?

Congrats **Tenn**. I’ve frequently enjoyed your wit and wisdom. If it wasn’t against my policy to name favorite posters you’d be on my list.

I thought of a clever new sig line last night, but I forgot it when I woke up this morning.

As a member of the 1k club, I welcome you with open arms to the upper level of Mundania. There is no primo parking spot, no executive washroom key, no busty massuesse named Olga, no free travel mug or t-shirt.Not even a bar of chocolate for you. So much for greatness.

But you have the respect from the rest of us for your wittiness and most of all, perserverence ( or is it chronic boredom?) to post so much on this board.

**Shirley Ujest** : Any chance of a chocolate-stained T-shirt, a busted travel mug, and a washroom attendant named Olga?

Welllll, lessee, I got the chocolate stained t-shirt and the busted travel mug…but you are going to have to find Olga the bathroom attendant on your own.

Hey, whistles, stomps and uncouth cheers of celebration on your 1K milepost.

May I say you are the sneakiest, wiliest, most prolific punster here? Purely by way of wide-eyed admiration of course…

Besides, you were a real gent about it when as a twitching neophyte I accidentally called you “TeenHippie”.

Mischief, wicked wordplay…you rock.
