Ummm, did it have to do with wrestling naked in pudding at a dopefest? If not, then I’m afraid I don’t know.

Do you think if we renamed this thread “Naked Pudding Wrestling” we’d get new participants flocking in?

C’mon, **lel** , haul out your prognosticating dessert spoon!

And here it comes – _ **post number one thousand!!!** _

I was looking at my last post before this, number 999, and thinking if I stood on my head it would look like The Number Of The Beast. But before it could be confirmed, I fell off my monitor.

**NoClueBoy** , this is all your fault.

I didn’t know they made Vanilla Dr Pepper.  
I’m hoping **AbbySthrnAccent** will explain who Saint Hrn is.

Rumors of this thread’s death have been greatly exaggerated.

It’s lasted over a month, through two seasons, and though it may fluctuate in frequency, IT LIVES!!!

Well done, though I am not Irish.

However, I think this thread is taxing the hamsters, so I’m not playing no more.

Taxing the ham§sters? Does it really?

Also, this isn’t the only current +2K thread in MPSIMS. Last time I counted, we had 4 on the front page.

But, all things considered, this thread has really surprised me. How can you tell if a thread is going to take off? I’ve had some popular ones… toys, airplanes, WWII history, sci-fi stuff… But, some others I thought would last, didn’t.

**fizzygoodmakefeelnice** , where art thou?

Oh how I wish **Abby** would show her pretty little face in here and set my guilt-festered mind at ease.  
Yo **Abby** , my mind can’t take any more festering today.

Through two seasons? Which would those be? (I can think of one very personal possibility, but won’t let you know what it is)

Happy #1000 and counting, **ETF**.

(maybe you’ll post next?)

Darn, I’m 3 pages off. It is, however, the first time ego surfing has ever gotten me anything.

I’m giving up my cool 1666 post count to say that **yosemitebabe** will babe on past here shortly, although I really want **Coldfire** to come in and smack you all upside the head.

Hey, what happened? I replied to your post, **F\_X** , but the board was hanging pretty bad then. Guess the hamsters needed a snack.

Two seasons would bu summer and fall, wouldn’t they, **NCB**?

**Wikkit** , just shoot for a cool 2666 post count!

1…0…1…6. I think this means that **EddyTeddyFreddy** will use her 1016th post posting to this thread right after me.

**ETF** , that’s what I thought after I posted. Maybe I’ve been reading too much sports news. (CFL, NFL, NHL, MLB, NBA, etc. … oh my!)

**lel** , your location reminds me of the word “meretricious.” 😃

Maybe **sperfur** will post next.
