Half A Million Served

 

1. I’m starting the day as 499,096th (and 499,097th now that I’ve hit the comment link).

   Gonna have to keep an eye on the meter as I browse the site, I suppose.

2. 499,199 when I passed thru.  Still miss the spy map, by the way.  I liked the way I felt, watching those blinking lights on that map and realizing that our influence was being felt half a world away....

4. OK, Barb! I just pushed you up to 3,668 with two swift visits. Everyone else go visit Barb and find out how you can get your very own “Club Gitmo” t-shirt. It’s all the fashion rage, lovey, in all the right social circles, of course.

9. Stan & Frank: C’mon now guys! No artifically inflating the numbers. Only Democrats do that.

   Phoenix: Yes, the winner gets a tour of the Captain’s Cabin (unless the winner is OCM).

31. Time to go buy myself a lottery ticket!

    Screenshot.

    But I only hit the magic number.  The real story here is the quality of the site that Alan maintains that keeps people coming back, and back, and back again.

    Congratulations Skipper, hell of a good site you have here.

32. Yay, Captain !!  Who won? 

    Look at Argentium’s screenshot:  The quotation is PERFECT:

    “No legacy is so rich as honesty.” William Shakespeare.

    How cool is that.  Very telling for this blog and its members.

    Does Frank get to go into your cabin ?  Humph.

    Captain, did you need something soaped up and rinsed ?

    Imp, pass me an Atlas Shrugged.  Time for a strong libation to honor our Captain.
