thinksnow turns 2000!

Well, why not? The jury is still out on what the bar will be for post parties, but a small consensus seems to be leaning toward 2,000 posts.

So, congrats, thinksnow. Congrats for not only attaining 2,000 but also for providing the board with some truly well-considered, intelligent posts.

I raise a glass to ye! And for the rest of you heathens, there’s plenty of debauchery to be had! Topless women! Bottomless men! Donkeys! Tequila! Pampers! Ducks!

Happy 2000 thinksnow!

I hope you enjoy your party a great deal. I brought my hot tub, and set it up on the deck. I will, however, be retaining my top thankyouverymuch! :slight_smile:

Scotti

Um…ducks? Oh, NEVERMIND…I don’t think I want to know!

ahhhh, thinksnow when I think of all the times we’ve share, you and your slug… hmmmmm, I am always reminded of your **big

strong

manly

hands.**

[sub] wha?!?! [/sub] :smiley:
congrats kiddo

Good for you. :smiley:

I still haven’t quite recovered from the thought of thinksnow in the hot tub so I’m gonna restrain myself.

:Mermaid gives thinksnow a sincere and heartfelt hug and pat on the back and oh what the hell…an even more sincere and heartfelt smoooooooch and a pat on the bottom:

Congrats you big hunk of burning snow. :wink:

[sub]Hey at least he’s got his pants on now.[/sub]

Wow, thanks, dan, though I think you might have me confused with someone else:

I think my favorite thing about this board is actually meeting some of the people.

I’m gonna talk for a bit, so if you’re just here for some glib-ness, etc, skip on down to the next post (hopefully there will be a next post.)

When I first thought about meeting some people I knew fomr online, I was wary. Who wouldn’t be, the only time you ever hear about online meetings is when they go horribly bad. My first meeting was in a jazz-kinda club in Columbus, OH. I met idiotboy and saw his band jam some really good ska. A few months later, I met a small group in Michigan. I’ve been to Chicago a few times and Spiffled and Flint and am planning on heading out to Cali this month.

See, I move around a lot. I’ve moved, essentially, three times since March 2000 and it’s nice to be able to stay in touch with a large group of people consistantly. Sure, I stay in touch with many friends nationwide, but I certainly don’t have the interaction, the rapport, that I have here. I don’t know if that plays into my like for the board and it’s visitors, or if it’s just the board itself, the banter, exchange of ideas and everything else, but I know I like it. Some Dopers are more dear to me than others. One or two in particular mean very much to me, and that never would have happened through the randomness of meeting in person, but it did happen after meeting here.

Anyhoo, I’ve lost my train of thought, which seems to happen a lot these days. 'Course, today is a special day, for I’ve publicly spoken out, somewhat gently, but contrary to the moderation, or specifically, a particular instance of such, of this board. Such is life. Thanks for reading, sorry for rambling.

To a certain special someone, I still wish you all the best.

I believe I would be the afore-mentioned glib-ness.

Congratulations, thinksnow.

Having had the pleasure of meeting you twice now, think, I can honestly say that…well, it’s really been a pleasure. And an honor. And I hope we’ll meet again.

Congrats, my friend, and I hope you’ll stick around a whole lot longer.

Love, Cristi

Pay no attention to me, I’m just stalking Persephone. :smiley:

But while I’m here, congratulations, thinksnow, you devil, you.

Hey thinksnow, I think I still have half a pink peep, if ya want it…it’s been on the ground though.

Seriously…congrats on wasting so much time here and seriously brightening many a day and night for me with your intelligence and wit. I am also lucky to have met you in the flesh, and find you to be a shining example of American masculinity. Now go get laid or whatever ya do for a post party of this calibur.

Scotti was wondering about the ducks, but I was wondering about the Pampers…

I didn’t know you had a child… or did you have some sort of… um… problem? On second thought, don’t answer, I don’t need to know. :slight_smile:

Anyway, congrats on 2000.

What comes to mind when I think of thinksnow?

“Is it thinks now or think snow?”
“So did he ever get that Prince Albert?”
“That’s the dude that shaved his balls.”

Mind you, these are all Good Things. :wink:

Happy 2k think!

[sub]All my best to that certain someone too.[/sub]

I thought he shaved Prince Albert’s balls! :eep:

Oh well, either way. Happy 2 tthhoooooooouuuuusand.

:eek: :eep: Same difference.

I want to once again thank everyone, it’s been a pleasure to get to know all of you and I wouldn’t stick around if y’all didn’t bring a smile to my face. That being said:

Thank you to each and every one of you, and those that might post later. Thank you, friends.

What can I say? I was so concerned about getting the coding right, I screwed up the paste! Well, I guess I’m an idiot.

They say that the memory is the first to go. See, every day thinksnow takes a pill to increase his memory, then another for energy, then a pill to increase his memory.

so, it was a big bottle of pills in his pocket? :eek: I thought he was just glad to see us. :smiley:

I always think of thinksnow as the man who owes me the rest of a hand massage.

If only a can of guinness hadn’t gotten in the way! ::throws self down on bed, weeping::

Next time, bud. Congrats on 2000!
