    well not really more of

    1/2 the package if I win, since I meet 1/2 the qualifications? or just take a long time to make your next 47 posts


    P.s. Before I get scolded.... this is a joke.... I fully understand he set the qualifications for what he felt was fair and I completely respect that.

    Seatbelts save lives, my best friend and I are alive because of them.

    Nobody is ever gone as long as there is someone to remember them.

    Hmmm. I figure I better post 1 for every SLC posts until the magical # of 997. So I may qualify for said observance/prize.

    I think i take exception to the use of the term 'rapidly'. But if i had to guess, I say before the Super Bowl.

    Not only are you guys observant, but you are quick on the draw. Mark, I think I have your addy still, but PM it just in case.

    Aaron, for second place you get to name my next bird.

    Sorry, Godfather, didn't mean to throw you off...I was just congratulating James on getting so close to 1000.

    Man, I tell ya, I actually had to take off my shoes so I could figure this out...if only that lawnmower accident never happened I'd be able to count past 17....sigh.

    By the way, that next bird......Chevy. I always thought that'd be a good name for a bird.

    Well James, It appears that we have a poor fellow is recently out of work, and it also so happens that he has also done an awful lot of things to make this a better community. So, instead of sending them to me, send them out to CgarDan. I think he can use them right now more than I can, and we can both show him our appreciation for all he has done.

    Thanks, James, and thanks Dan!

    Shelby,
    Great gesture, and congrats on post 700.

    And Cgardan, if you want you can name the damn bird too.

    Consider it done. I cannot think of a better way to mark, this, my 1000th post.

    Very thoughtful- Shelby.

    You and Hefty are both winners in my book. Chevy will make an excellent name.
