This is it! My 2,000th post!

[PrinceMyshkin]

Do I really have any more to say
than I did in my first?
Or my 50th, my 500th?

It was always, I am here!
Can you see me?
Do you like me?
Will you be my cyber-friend?

Oh Lord, I get so lonely sometimes
I think I must give off the odour of it,
causing people to shrink away from me
in cafes, in supermarkets or even

in the adjoining lane of traffic
as their cars veer away
and crash into each other
to avoid my noxious stink!

CONGRATS!!!!
and, I feel that way too...that cars are veering away from me- even though I hardly care..

Dude! If they're veering away from you at the same time as they're veering away from me, we're going to be the cause of a lot of smash-ups.

I think everyone feels that way at least a little. 2000! Wow

Wordy little devil, aren't you?

Congrats from a fellow stinker. ;)

You got the, um...guts to meet me in a challenge: total number of words I've posted divided by 2,000 vs total number of yours divided by 1,316?

Ha! This being a literary site you would think they would have a word count for us, huh? ;)

OOoooo.....I'm wondering if something miraculous just happened to you as you posted your 2007th post in this, the year 2007?

[Shurtugal]

so far no cars have swerved away from me, but that might be 'cause i don't drive. though i must admit i do scare most of the kids at my choir away.

Anbd how did you contrive it that your last three are all numbered 1,323? Does this mean in fact that you have actually posted 3,969?

[amanda_isabel]

Yes, yes, and yes!!!

Congratulations on this momentous milestone, my fluent friend, my articulate acquaintance, my chatting chum, my prolix pal, my cogent colleague, my multiloquent mentor....

May the run to 3,000 begin!! :D

[firefangled]

Congratulations, my cyber friend. :)

You get a free tattoo from Lit-Net. :lol:

[kiz_paws]

LoL, what is with cars crashing lately.... :lol:

But congrats on the big 2000, and many more. :thumbs_up

Any ideas as to what the tattoo will say? :p

[Pendragon]

Congratulations! Quite an accomplishment that is!

Oh no! I never look at my post number. I have a thousand to go. I don't have that many words left in me at the end of a day. :(

Here are a couple (notice how loosely we use that word these days) I wasn't planning to use, that you're welcome to:

Verisimilitude pulchritude débruilliard autochthonous lightwood euonymous heiligenschein palsgravine deathcamas

Don't use them ALL up in just the one post, though, or you'll never make your 2000th.
