Thanks for pointing that out doofer. I do admit to running a load of laundry, then posting. Washing dishes, then posting. Making beds, then posting. It was the hubby's idea to put this damned computer so handy where I had to pass by it all the time.
Besides, I love you people. And my messages are usually not very long anyway.
And I've been posting a bunch of pics for you, too, Doof!!!!!
A lot of Christians wear crosses around their necks. Do you think when Jesus comes back he ever wants to see a fuckin' cross? It's kind of like going up to Jackie Onassis with a rifle pendant on.
Well, once I start training for my new job (forced inter-office transfer, damn it!! I was very happy where I'm at, but their moving my "client" to a different location, and I can't afford to quit, or relocate) I'll probably be posting much less.
I've tried, but I just can't stop. Chalk it up to a massive ego, a fervent will, a practiced talent, a love for Elvis, and an ass-kicking high-speed satellite connection.
My husband convinced me that DSL would change the way I worked on the computer and I never believed him until we got it. I don't know how we lived without it now. I can have up so many windows at one time - balancing a checkbook, paying bills online, and posting on this site all at the same time. High speed does kick ass, Rope!
Okay, just went and had a look, and here are the top twenty numerical posters. Sad bastards us. If it were counting number of words I guess rope would be top!

Actually, I look at those statistics all the time, or at least mine. I make a conscious effort to keep my average posts per day number under two. Somehow that makes me feel like even more of a nerd than if I didn't pay any attention and racked up some outrageous number of posts.
Suddenly I feel all inadequate...I was numero uno before the reptile on the FIRST board for quitre a while but it is really the Shabbster who owns the crown...
Oh jeepers, watch the neuroses fly...! Know what I did to avoid having to hear what my class rank was in high school? Dropped out!! Highly effective....
Message Board Envy strikes again! This is a serious condition and requires compulsory admission to hospital for assessment and possibly treatment. (MHA 1983 Section 2)
"But they can't hold a candle to the reciprical war crimes which have plagued our policy of foriegn affairs."
In accordance with public opinion, I post less frequently. Below the average.
I will change my screen name to "1.645 Standard Deviations left of the Mean" or "sub-Gaussian".
The poster formerly know as Mr. Average and, good forbid, that horrible guy named draperdan (cleverly disquised transpositional code involving my first and last names).
