Is there a prize for guessing that we'd hit 1000 before 8:30?

Ok ok... going for now.

Just wanted to report that my authentic Mexican burrito was excellent and as of now I am not experiencing any intestinal distress.

Does he have it yet?

We didn't celebrate in NYC... it is too darn cold!! We debated driving over to Camden to get a good view of the Philly fireworks but again it is too darn cold/ or is it that we are too darn old??

Happy New "Classic mini" Year, skillet and to all of my new BFF's on this thread
RJKimbell it is so good to hear that you enjoyed the posts and that you "get it"

Went to the movies and came back to see that the magic mark had passed. Congrats on the prize. I'd be happy to offer up the next prize for the next magic number (I think 2009 was mentioned?).

yeah. I saw "Yes Man" too. It was funny, and yet had some kind of deep inspirational undertone that just kinda makes you wanna go out and do something positive for someone.

Yes, they can be, and I just read where someone had clarified that.

I knew it! What are the odds though Chubby gets the 1000th post. I've never laughed so hard before on this thread.

On another note, how many of you believe in this "Dec. 21, 2012" crap?

HS! We have to keep this going 'til then?!?

I don't know anything about it... at this point just worried about making it through '09.

I do remember that the world was going to end on New Year's Eve 1999. That's why I went to the greatest place on earth- DISNEY WORLD! Figured if I was going to die- that would be the place to be... with Mickey and Friends. The choice was simple... either DISNEY(dangerous) or Peoria(safe). I like to live on the edge.

Does anyone ever remember the X-Files show that mentioned that Peoria would be the safest place to be during that time? (That's why I say that.) I don't remember what the show was about but...

Now don't everyone start booking up the hotels up there ahead of time!

I only wish I was that lucky with lottery tickets or when I go to Vegas!

I got Will's prize boxed up and will try to get it mailed tomorrow, unless it's considered a holiday.
