Default Holy Crap, How Did This Happen??? I Have 4,000+ Posts???

Last time I checked it was just over 3,000. Damn, I really have logged a lot of time on this BBS since I decided to go back to school 4 years ago Prior to school I was rarely on here and mostly just lurked, then I did something which changed my whole computer usuage - I sold my TV. I knew my TV addiction and work/school/other commitments wouldn't all work out, so I decided to get rid of the biggest time waster - TV. Long story short, I was given a TV in December by my brother but rarely watch it as I now spend almost as much time on the computer/internet as I did on the TV (beginning to see the lack of wisdom in my choices here).

Anyway, (I realize I'm coming close to breaking my record for my longest post) it's been fun to get to know you guys better over the last 4 years and I've really made some awesome friends Scully, Jerad, Sammie, Justin, Dan P & Cuz, Pete, Andy, Chris, Wadester, Harry, Scott @ Team Harco, Michelle, Dan (aka xsboost), Dale and all you other ex-cons

I guess that's about a 1,000 posts per year. At this rate I'll have 5,000+ right around graduation time ;-)

Rock On,
Cory

Scary how fast it happens. Figure every post represents about 3 minutes (average) of reading, compiling information, responding, etc. . . That's a lot of "wasted time".

At least I ain't watching TV.

Just for yuks - I think MattH is the current post leader with around 12,000. That's 36,000 minutes / 60 = 600 hours / 24 = 25 days straight of Rennlisting. No pee breaks, no sleep, no nothin'.

Wow man, you're my hero! After you decided to come out of the closet - I've really taken notice of your work. It takes a lot of strength and stamina to do what you've done. We all look up to you for it.

After I get back from my extended weekend (hopefully repeating at POR) I have something for you. Think Benny Hill....
