1000

[Alpinfox]

This is my 1000th post on www.cascadeclimbers.com.

 

In recognition of this dubious milestone, some reflections:

-I never thought I would become a bulletin board adict, but here I am.

-I have wasted a shitload of time on this website.

-I have met some great people and great climbing partners.

-I have laughed my ass off.

-I have been inspired and entertained by some of the best climbing writing and photography I've seen anywhere.

-I have learned to love emoticons/graemlins

-I have been educated by some of the incredibly knowledgeable and intelligent people that post here.

-I have gotten pissed off and probably pissed others off

 

Overall, I'm glad for the existence of this website and I wish you all well.

 

In conclusion, to all my friends (virtual and actual) on cc.com, a toast:

 

"Here's to you and here's to me,

The best friends that shall ever be,

But if we should ever disagree,

FUCK YOU here's to me!"

 

 

 

 

p.s. Jon and Timmy, you can expect a check from me just as soon as I get a job.

Just in posting (not including reading)...lets estimate 1 minute per post....that is 16 2/3 hours of your life that can't be recovered. And it is probably 10 times that at least in reading. Solid hours of your life, down the tube. Good work, here is to 1000 more!

word.

 

 

but hmmm.... it seems the cc.com post-counter is fa-schnizzled. with that last post, AF, (two above this one), the 1000s-place counter flipped, when the 1s-place counter should have, moving you from 1000 to 2000...

 

not fair!!! why can't that happen to me!!!

i wanna have a high post-count!!

Oh...and here is to 3000.

But beware...I'm catching up! Soon they'll have me locked in a rubber room...just as long as I have a internet connection, I'll be ok! Oh...and the 11 essentials.

Double_E: don't be a mome. Look again.

 

Some numbers: 1,000 posts in 250 days = 4 posts per day. Good job, Pax...I guess.

[Double_E]

what do you mean klenke? AF said he's at 1000 posts, but his counter says 2000.

 

and what the heck is a "mome"? someone whose HTML skills aren't advanced enough to write a script to put a browser into a continuous-refresh-loop?

[olyclimber]

Put down the bong son

 

Double_E: Check the date he posted that he was at 1000 posts. 04/20/04 02:39

[Dave_Schuldt]

Shit, 1,000 post is lame for someone who doesn't have a job!

[klenke]

You'll figure it out someday...maybe by Fox's 3,000th post.

 

Would you rather be a lurdane?

 

Oly: why make it easy for Double_E? Make him figger it out all by his selfsome.

[Double_E]

oh... ahem.. right.

 

now, the question becomes tho, did Pax schedule the whole thing last winter/spring so that his 1000th post would be on 4/20?

[Duchess]

Not to belittle your achievement, but

 

*AHEM*
