    Trying to decide...

    I'm trying to decide what kind of witty, sage, monumental, or just plain random words I want to post to this forum to celebrate post number 2,000.

    Any ideas?

    Maybe if I sleep on it, I'll come up with something groundbreaking. Too bad I don't have any cool new finished projects to post...

    Yes, sleep on it. At least you could have a nightmare and make it a memorable post.

      You could post a big flashing 2000. That's not very original though.

                  The one thing that irks me most of this forum software is that the post count is dynamically changed for all your posts, from day 1. So you can never trace back and identify which post was exactly your 2000th! As of now all your 'post counts' will show 2000!
                  It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.

                    I know which one was his 2000th and it was the perfect post. Thanks Alex.

                      That's what I was referring to in my previous post.

                        I agree, there couldn't have been a better spot for 2000.

                          Some things are just far more important than post counts. You're welcome.
