"Then B*sh quietly asks, "How many is in a brazillion?"

I wanna take this opportunity to say how much
I really love you all!
I honestly don't know why y'all have tolerated
4999 posts worth of my nonsense,
but I am damn glad that you did!

Some days, Democratic-Underground-dot-com has been
my only reason to _NOT_ just say "fuck this noise",
and run amok with sharp objects.

This place has been my MENTAL ANCHOR,
an intangible island of mirth and news and intelligent discussion,
and, above all, SANITY....
while the whole "REAL WORLD" has seemingly gone batshit insane,
and flown out the window.

Long story short: ALL YOU FOLKS TOTALLY FUCKING ROCK!
And I feel HONORED every day that I remain a member of this awesome group!

Sincerely,
Richard Steele.


And a SPECIAL shout-out to our new 'DU Lounger' RandomAustralian,
because I was spending a lot of thought on the THEME for my 5000th post,
and that little 'Cling-On' showed me the LIGHT!!!
AND, while I was staring DIRECTLY into that light,
Bush asked "How many is in a brazillion?"
