Attention please! Here here! Special announcement by DemoTex. |
|
This is my 10,000th post on this special board. I came on DU in May 2001. I am an oldster here. I have too many friends at DU to count. To you all; past, missing, and present, I raise a glass. If I am not the quintessential DUer, I don't know who is.

If I am ever comin' down that way, I will make sure to bring my Hot Slaw and Tater Salad recipes.
I also make some larropin' Hush Puppies, so I will give you some advance notice, so you can go shoot you some squirrels and get a pot of Brunswick Stew a'simmerin'. :D

14. I consider you a friend, too, Rowdyboy. |

You may, or may not, remember that my gay brother is a radiologist in Atlanta. My wife and I are big supporters of the gay and lesbian movement and we fly the rainbow flag at the mountain house in NC (where I spend 99% of my time). My brother and his partner just bought a $2.5 million house in Atlanta. They also have a $1.5 million dollar place at Grayton Beach, Florida. I say, good for the gays! They have the money now. The fundies don't.

I'm not gonna let you go too many years in NC without getting up that way to meet you sometime. ;-) I'll bring some Allen & Son. You bring whatever passes for BBQ up there. :P

10. And not one of those 10,000 posts |
|
Was NOT worth reading. I've said before, if ever there was a DUer whose every post was something special, it's DT.
I just replied in another thread to your post about the Admiral who'd carry your bags. In case you didn't see it, I said: "I remember the night you posted that. I felt proud to "know" ya. Or at least be associated with you on the same message board."

post counts? I always liked seeing when people were about to hit a big milestone -- and at one time 100 seemed like a big milestone to all of us!
:toast:
So how cold is it Carolina tonight? It's 23 at last count here in the Georgia Piedmont. Somebody said snow tomorrow, maybe. Wouldn't that be nice?

They say 15 in the mountains, but my money is on 10-F.

16. Congrats, Mac! Whew! You're way ahead of me. |

I started posting here in September of 2001, not long after 9/11. I took nearly a year long break from DU when my wife hit the roof over "all the time I was wasting". You may not remember, but you were the first to welcome me back when I resumed posting in 2002.
Anyway, here's to a good friend, and an invaluable DU-er. :toast::beer::toast::beer:
