Thanks for caring that much.

As for profound things to say,

well,

I'd like to say a few words about soup.

3. See, you wasted it about soup.

On my 1000, I wasted it in the Lounge or something...
:-)

Congrats.

13. Can talking about soup ever really be a waste? Actually, that was a bit of an

homage to "Scrubs".

5. Welcome to DU, my dear StrongFRONT22!

6. A bit. But welcome to DU anyway.

Some advice.

If you are going to post in GD much, get ready for some real skeptics.

If you post something that has ANY small fact wrong, you're going to get called on it.

This is not a bad thing. It's why most of us are here.

There is more truth here than in your average nightly newscast. There is also some bullshit. If you learn to tell the difference, more power to you.

Again, welcome StrongFRONT22..

PS...(on edit) One can wander around for hours on the various forums. Read the rules, the history. (Oh, and BTW, if you like, donate, it keeps this going.)

16. Welcome Strong! You're not behind... You're fresh and spicy! As for advice, well,

all I can tell you is not to let any someone, or even any group of someones get you down. There are people here who live for the attack and who are waiting for you to say something they can construe as offensive. That said, the vast majority of people here are the finest I've ever known and I'm proud to be a member here.

See ya around...

12. Welcome StarryNight

You will get there quicker than you think. it goes pretty fast when you post on every thing that interests you.

[poverlay]

14. You're going to be there before you know it. Then you're going to click on

someone's profile who has 10,000 posts and you'll feel small again. It is nice to be over the 1000 mark though. Feels like I have more cred.~ ya know?

18. Hey congrats!!!!!

:hi:

And I want everyone to know that Poverlay proudly displays his DU bumpersticker!!

I have to run for now - the nephew's b-day party starts in 10 minutes (we're running a little late!)

[poverlay]

19. Give Wyatt our love. That little guy deserves a good party. ... Also, I would like everyone to

know that I wouldn't be here if it weren't for the mad recruiting skills of Coventina. She introduced me to DU when all I knew was MSNBC and ZNET!
