I’ve spent today wondering about what to do with my thousandth post. Some of the ideas:
[li]Another thank you note (already did it for #100)[/li]
[li]The ubiquitous post party[/li]
[li]Celebrating at my “Ultimate Recipe Thread”[/li]
[li]Starting a Thanksgiving recipe thread.[/li]These are some of the ideas I’m considering. Most of them center around posting my killer Triple Sausage Red Wine and Sourdough stuffing recipe. I spent an hour or more today formating it for the SDMB and I think it would make a dynamite holiday gift to everyone.
Anyway, I was just curious…
Of course I’m sure there are those who would suggest that I avoid the entire dilemma by ceasing to post at all…

LoL… You know what **Zenster**? From reading your posts sometimes I think this.
Just because you seem like the type of guy that I hated in high school. The guy that always knew what to say, and no matter how hard I tried, was always going to score better than me on that english test.
I have no animosity(sp?) towards you, don’t get me wrong. It’s just that you always reply to many posts with what I wanted to say, long before I can, only saying it so much better than I ever would.
I realize this prolly sounds really silly, but I thought I would share. Hopefully you take this as a compliment. It’s meant as one.
The 1000 recipe post sounds like a good idea. But I’d be there for your post party. 🙂

I assume this really IS the post party? 1. Congrats.
2. Where are the naked dames?

Whatever you do, I will be there to congratulate you. You are one of my very favorite posters (even though I am jealous of you, because you cook, apparently very well). And I will bring party hats for everyone, if you would like.

I am slightly confused here, because~
A) You haven’t GOTTEN to 1000 yet
B) You seem unsure if this is your post party, or just a thread asking for ideas for your forthcoming 1000 post party.
C)I am just generally confused, anyway.
So whatever.
Congrats on 1000, whenever and however you celebrate it!

Alright, **Zenster** , since you’re well stocked on edibles and drinkables, I’ll refrain from abusing you for screwing up the page with your thread title. (Who says I’m not a nice guy?)
Happy thousand, a little early.

Congratulations to you, Zenster!
Even if I think of your Ultimate Recipe thread every time I prepare my special “DRY Kraft Macaroni and Cheese surprise” (the surprise is if I don’t mess it up) and blush.
Best wishes on your next 1000! (How many will be recipes?)

Not often, Daniel, but if I eat much more of this glorious food I won’t be leaving any time soon-I won’t fit through the door!
Now about that chocolate…

Everyting sound so delicious that I’ll have to try some even though I can’t have over half the beverages(wine and suds) because I’m underage. I wish I had something special to say for the thousandth post but I don’t so I’ll do the classy cover-up _puts out verticle open hand_ put ér there pal and congrats.

I was just over in the gravity thread explaining how objects release work performed upon them when I noticed the time…
[/professor whoopie voice]
Thank you **Spider Woman** for the fabulous party hat. I feel like Bartholomew Cubbins\* with it on.
That said, welcome to everyone else. Today is going to be a lot of fun. The gift giving is about to begin and my stuffing recipe is about ready to hit the boards. A special thank you to **Eutychus** for repairing the marquee outside.
So, dig in folks the party has just begun.
\*Special door prize for the first person to get the reference.
