I'm guessing that's a low-end estimate.

We should pitch in for a trophy for the first sorry bugger who reaches 5,000 (or 10,000).

I'm not bad, I'm just rendered that way.

Wonder,

I've always wanted to ask you this--when do you sleep? It seems like your posts come in at *all* hours of the night and early morning, as well as during the normal 9-5 day. What's your typical schedule?

Just curious...

24/7 that's me. I am just totally dedicated to insuring your internet happiness by going for weeks without sleep so that in the off chance one of you tires of your title or something, I will be there to service you.

Actually, I sleep very little (even less during this recuperative time). I do have two other occupations actually.
I am a balloon pilot. that is why I am usually not here for about 4 hours in the morning.
I have an art studio that is here. Al and I work in hot glass mainly these days and there is a lot of things that I can do while monitoring this site. There is also a lot of slack time waiting for the glass kilns to reach certain tempuratures before I can work the glass and that takes little time to do. The window (pun intended) for manipulating the glass is narrow as it stiffness rather quickly with most of the processes that we use.
Big Al is down in the kiln room right now finishing loading the pieces for today's firing.
We actually have a life too. We just don't wander very far for the most part. We live about 200 yards from a very cool wilderness trail that wanders up into some spectacular country and the creek is 5 minutes away.

Don't argue with me.

*pants enviously*

Sounds like the Maine farmhouse we rented a few years ago, absent the kiln.

In the several months I've "known" you, I've been amazed by how prolific a poster you are.

Eh, I happen to think I have it pretty good. But I also have been at it for a while.
We had a big studio with 5 employees but we shut it down. All we were doing was running a business, never really getting any time to just create. That got boring despite the money being good.
Now we work at OUR pace and don't have to be anywhere at any particular time.

Perhaps I should try to reach this lofty goal as well. Hmm, I could probably do it since I'll be having some vaction time coming up. I get a whole month off during the christmas break!!! WOOHOO! Perhaps, perhaps. My only problem is the fact that I can't really post anything that isn't like a period or something. I feel the need to say somethiing though I know most of you don't care. Oh well, you suck then. Fuck you very much...the end.

I should make it to my first 1k post by christmas of 2001. I think there'a a slim to no hope chance of my posting 362 more times in the next month or so. I'm estimating that I'll hit my 1k post mark Monday March 26th 2001 around the middle of the day, but I might be able to side it in a few days prior to that if I try.

I was all set to catch up to Wonder, but then they took out his gall bladder and gave him narcotics and said "stay at home for 2 weeks".

How can you compete with that?!?

Besides, my ISP tends to kick me offline every hour on the hour, so I can only post in little spurts now.

But SOMEDAY!!!!!!

But I guess they have to be intelligent posts to shut aminal up (like that would shut him up).
Millipedes and centipedes.
Millipedes have 2 pair of legs per body segment whereas centipedes only have one pair.
Millipedes are herbivores whereas centipedes are insectavores, in fact are poisonous and can inflict a rather painful bite.
That is all I can remember in my condition.

Oh yeah, there is a mite that lives around the joints of the millipede's legs that keeps the joints clean by eating the dead skin and other icky things that build up there in the course of the millipede's wanderings. If those little fellows weren't there, the millipede will eventually founder and die. Symbiosis is a wonderful thing.

I'm on a streak here. Personally, I'm shooting for the two-hundred mark, somewhere around Summer of 2001.

Yeah, but red your postings are so interesting that you're well beyond the 200 mark in my book. You're at like the 210 mark!

Ignore me, it's just my meds kicking in. I'm starting to get drowzy, but there was no warning about drowzy on the bottle.

Oh well.

Question 1000 posts by Christmas?

Is it possible for me to do that and *still* have some semblance of a life? I seem to kill threads too... is this some sort of unattainable pipe dream for a sorry little art student?

Tell you what, Am_Sci. You and I hook up, shag like mad, and I'll give you 1000 of my posts. How does that sound? No? Didn't think so.
