Let's be the one!

Naw ... I've seen Victor around, I think. Don't know about Al.

647 posts on just this thread for the short time it's been in existence.

I did all that work and got a sore mouse finger and then I was in the shower at the big moment. You guys really picked up the momentum at the end. I thought I would be back in time - I probably fell asleep in the shower LOL!! Eleanor

Dang, had a tough day yesterday and was sleeping last night. missed the whole thing :( congrats, Al, you ol' Wisconsiner (Wisconsinite? nah, that sounds like a brand of linoleum). obviously, we couldn't have done it without you.

here's a loverly bunch of dahlias for you

Thanks Jan

I'm fine Eleanor

Good morning all! Thanks Pirl. Did anyone else do the multi-tab barrage?

me...5 of them at once.

Thanks Celeste. That was the kicker that 'kept out' non NE people from getting it.

I just saw this thread. I'll probably be late for work after reading all your posts. Congratulations, Al. I'm really glad it was you (don't tell the others).

I do believe, without a doubt....we took first place this week in post. I could be crowing way to soon, but I would say we have a good lead on everybody right now. It will take a power play a kin to our "4mil showdown" last night.

Agreed!

Amen!

Well congrats to Al for getting the money post! I missed the whole thing darn it all. :( So how long to # 5 mil?

Good morning Successful Warriors! I've been cooking baked ziti until it's coming out of my ears this morning, but I was quite confident that I would find a stellar performance that would make us all proud - including those slackers that went to bed or to shower or to an extended trip to the ladies room and then to bed (yeah, that was my destiny last night) Were it not for having to prepare for the Event here tomorrow, I assure you I would have seen it through myself, but I am quite happy to see one of our own - and actually several of our own if you include the close seconds and thirds etc. like they do in the Olympics!......was the Victor (pun intended, V!) ....Good job.......I'll promise to be there for the 5 mill turning on this thread!

The way we post, it won't be long!!

Hey, Candyce......pretty warm here today....how about where you are??? What's that adorable little Morgan up to today?

Wish I'd been able to hang in here.......but we'll all be there for the 5 mill!! I'll bet I'll be posting from Fla. I hope that still counts....

The weather is great, although I did have to go water the gardens, with little Morgan supervising from her 'bounce-y chair'. Right now, she's taking her nap (a great time for me to be here at DG!!).

Good luck with everything tomorrow, and I hope that new stove holds up really well.

What could we accomplish if we used all our efforts towards good instead of evil?

Are you on the right thread Cat?!!

Yeah - y'all did a major, focused campaign to meet an end goal. I figure that there is a NE Forum Brain Trust here that just needs to be redirected. First, the 4 millionth post - next to ?

Guerilla gardening?

Been there, done that

Funny, you guys! Needed my humor fix before I get back to work here.

I believe my inner child Bart Simpson summed it all up Yank - " I must only use these powers to annoy'

Yeah, what's all this 'Let's use our power for good' stuff??! That wasn't in my contract.

The latent evil in you two is just astounding!! But you aren't fooling any of us, you know that, don't you???

'evil' and 'vile' are not anagrams of 'live' by accident.

Wow, Victor, you're on top of your game, considering the marathon last night. I just panicked that I don't have enough food for tomorrow, so I jumped up and made a lemon cake.....now I have to wait for it to come out of the oven! LOL I was ready for bed a half hour ago. Of course we'll have way too much, but wouldn't it be just awful if you actually ran out of food at a party??? Horrors! Back to the topic of your evil..........I'm impressed.....again. LOL

A friend ran out of food for a party she was hosting. She and the friend who was helping her went to get their dinner and nothing was left. How embarrassing!

That's a nightmare! I'd rather be like Louise and have too much, rather than thinking I had enough.

I'm with you. I enjoy eating the leftovers and so does DH (and Harry).

oooooh, Pirl.........after reading your post, I'm glad I made the extra cake, just in case.....we have friends (from NY no less) staying for the weekend, so it can't hurt to have plenty of food on hand. I would be so mortified if that happened to me!

Me, too!

Thanks Louise. I was at a wedding where they ran out of food!! It was held in a home and it was just plain bizarre, from beginning to end.

Sorry I missed the whole race to 4 mil.
We always have too much food, much better than running out.

congratulations Al!! Congratulations NE forum!!!! We da bomb.

I finally found it! Thanks pirl! For some stupid reason I was looking for a forum called "Let's Do It" - not a thread! . . . .I think I am working too hard . . .

Oh - congratulations to all who worked so hard to bring this great honour to the NE forum.

Well, you guessed it..........way too much food! But we had one couple stay with us until this afternoon, so it was probably a good thing! Even though I was an idiot to jump up and make that cake the night before in a state of panic, in the end I was glad I did. It was the first thing to go! LOL!

We backed my DH's tractor, "Lydia" up to the party area and used her bucket as the "drink center". It was beautiful weather and a lot of fun! Next time......less food! :)

But leftovers are SO good! Glad you had a good time.

I agree, Arlene, but enough is enough! Anyone want any chicken salad or baked ziti?????
