peekaloo

peekaloo's time was 9:30PM on Thursday May 20, which was the http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=389&topic_id=8341278&mesg_id=8346050">closest guess. She wins a fabulous DU T-Shirt.

And in case you were wondering who posted the 50 millionth post, well, it was NYC_SKP (one of our very own moderating team) who somewhat hilariously managed to post it http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=105&topic_id=8358611&mesg_id=9372307">right here. We think he deserves a DU T-shirt too :)

Congratulations to both of you, and thanks to everyone for taking part in the contest.

Here's to the next 50 million!

19. You say you do not get bathroom breaks?

Now let me call ICE on that operation.

(Been doing way too much readying into actual conditions at them sweat shops... true story, kids working at a Chinese clothing shop don't get a break for 14 hours)
