Hey g. You have done a lot to get this place up and running, post-wise. Just thought I would give some recognition where it is due.

Time to fire it up.

g, you still have 13 more posts than the next highest posting member.

So much for taking a break. Don't worry about it though... just leave for a while some OTHER time!

eh, people will catch up to me and surpass me in no time...

i have no doubt about it as i know my strengths (few) and the strenghts of many of the other posters here (massive)...so i see it as this:

the people with the big and juicy brains will post helpful tidbits to genius bar and current hardward and OS X and will actually be of help to the people coming to ai.org looking for mac answers and clues...their post counts will grow and grow with each and every useful reply

i, on the other hand, will run out of all these mildly witty things to say

or will be hit with a ban stick for saying something stupid like, "good thing brad is so good with computers because, as a poet...." well, perhaps i shouldn't be trying so hard to be hit with that ban stick

It's not Brad's fault that nothing really rhymes with 'surgery'

Don't feel too bad about your post count, at the old AI I averaged .95 posts a day, over here I'm at 10+ a day.

Nerd!

It's a good thing that my job has bad hours otherwise I too would have a ridiculous post count.

Did you write those down in bed, or did you have an urge to get up and post them? I'm hoping you laid in bed next to your wife writing down words that rhymed with surgery, convincing her even more of how insane you are.

i thought i used to have a signature

ha, no, i should have.....

just ran them through my head a couple of times to remember them, then fell off to slumber and posted the next day...

i'm not that crazy to need to post at 1 am just to taunt brad into banning me for making fun of his poem

and i don't need to sit up at night writing insane gibberish just to convince my wife that i am slightly "off my rocker"...she came to that realization years ago

Well, I sat for my exam last night (90% - online... not too bad)
I still have two assignments and ALSO a program to write by the end of the week... but I felt compelled to make my 100th post here!

I'm glad no one decided to take a break, cause this place might die without y'all.

And 350+ isn't even close to as bad as the 2500+ I had at .com in only like 6 months. What a geek.

Come waste your time with me
