Yep, after 3 months, I have hit the halfway mark.

So, what do I do with post #500?

I decided to Google "500". Got 61,600,000 links. Wow! Popular number! So I decided I was "feeling lucky". And I got this page:

http://www.fortune.com/fortune/fortune500

Wow, is this a sign? Will I be coming into money soon? Things are looking up.

SO I then go to Ask Jeeves, and ask:

What should I talk about for my 500th post on Democratic Underground?

Jeeves told me to talk about this:

http://web.ask.com/web?q=What+should+I+talk+about+for+my+500th+post+on+Democratic+Underground%3F&o=0&qsrc=0&askbutton.x=17&askbutton.y=12

Hmmm... That's a lot!

Let me just say...I can't wait to join Pat and the gang in the 700 Club. Only 200 to go!

1. Yes, and Ask Jeeves wants you to tie those all together into one
discussion. You know, holistically. :-)

Congrats on the 500!

4. In one discussion?
Well, here goes. I'll try to tie as much of all these posts as possible:

hey will drink coffee and talk animatedly about the absurd nature of...Nigeria who deal with issues of sectarian violence seem oblivious to democratic principles of free...female to post in this thread ... from doing it, it'll just go underground in non ... your right ethics is not a democratic...talk show host...with the day on which the talk took ... the post office to entering an office or bank. Prague had a democratic ... jazz clubs are underground...Matthews hits his 500th HR off...George Carlin, comedian

German Democratic Republic: Angelika and Hans-Jurgen Gerbes demonstrate with their children in Berlin, their banner bearing the words, 'We...marking the 500th Anniversary ... honourable Leader of the New Democratic...pygmy cups, but who will talk theory ... Ian Hodder introduced his post...Gut shall be installed underground in consultation ... one way or another, but when you hear how people talk in public...

But wait! I came across this horrifying link on page 2 of Jeeves:

Oh well, hope #600 gets better.
