5000th post.

It's been a slow, long, at times bumpy, but mostly beautiful journey, but after being sent off into exile by a country that lost it's way, I was able to paddle my way upon the shores of AW. I throw a shout out to AquaDan.

And even though the natives and tribal leaders had great worries about allowing me to come ashore, maybe rightfully so, but I knew that my reputation was much worse than deserved, I think it's all worked out.

This is my home.

And I'm happy here. May god bless AW and may god continue to bless the United States of America.
:)

There was no need for you to draw attention this monumental event.

Some of us were waiting in the dark with flowers and cake and party poppers, watching that "4999" number.

But it was your right to switch on the lights before we could shout "Surprise!"

So, congrats.

Three loaves, five fishes. We're all hungry. Can you beat the Iron Chef of Nazareth? Go, man, go!


Oh, not that 5000? Sorry.

"One... two... three... four... FIVE thousand! You're great!" "No, you're great!"

A thrillion congratulations, Billy.

You had me worried early on, Billy, I don't mind sayin'...

But I can't quite imagine this place without you, now. Glad you're here.

Wait a minute--the correspondence that amounts to "campaign literature" for your presidential platform DIDN'T COUNT, because they were all mailed at taxpayer expense. You only have about 43 legitimate messages!!

Just imagine how many posts you REALLY have if you hadn't posted so much in Office Party and TIO, which don't count posts...

Any guess?

8000?

10,000?

12,000?

Slightly north of where I was
I thought you were announcing that a sequel to the movie "300" was in development with a screenplay treatment by you.

But it's not. This is a deeply disappointing thread.

I'm still psyched for that movie tho.
