But I’ll acknowledge your somewhat above average mediocrity with a smile and a regal wave. And if you step a little closer, I’ll give you a chaste peck on the cheek… \*\*

Um, when you’re done with him, howsa bout me? 😉

And since I still owe you a back rub from before, well…I’d have to say that the floor’s looking mighty good right now. 😃

notice how most posters posting here have more then 1000. It used to mean something but now - who cares.

let us know when you reach 10,000 - now that’s worthy of a party.

I’m with you, k2dave. I passed 1k a while back and didn’t even notice. I probably won’t notice 5k, either.

So damn you! Damn all of you and your post parties! If you could bend over and orally pleasure yourselves, you’d do that too!

**hardygrrl** , keep up the good work. There may be a career for you in the cleavage-showing beer-wenching industry yet. Now just let that line plunge a li’l lower and I’ll guarantee you a job.  
\*_Odie_, thanks. Did you by chance book the reservation for us under the Presidential Dining Suite? I told **msrobyn** and **chique** it’d be a classy dinner.  
**Elenfair** , you mean it? I can be the Happy Fun Squad Protection Team Gardener? Awesome! I get my own weed wacker!!  
**aha** , it’s never to early to have a beer. Help yerself to the bar.

Now someone just needs to get their damn horse outta the house so we can let the strippers dance!!!  
Tripler  
But if **Arden Ranger** and **iampunha** wanna cover for the dancers while they move the horse . . .

I’ve a question.

I thought about starting my own thread, but being as MPSIMS is already swamped with MPSIMS (funny how that works, ain’t it?) I decided not to clutter up the boards generally, just this thread specifically.

Oh yeah, my question. I’m a-coming to it, gosh darnit!

I just hit 800 posts about 5 minutes ago in GD. I’ve been here over two years.

So, my question: just what in the heck are people talking about to hit over a 1,000 posts in a year-or-so?

**ExTank** : Mundane, Pointless Stuff.

Look at my post count. Look at how short of a time I’ve been here. Look at where I am posting. 😃

I’d be honored to attend, but it’s gotta be on the condition that y’all pay my airfare from Texas.

BTW, it’s taken three months to break The Curse of the Turkey Sandwiches (soon to be a major motion picture). 😃
