You're killin' me, Smalls. I can't stop laughing either.

Sometimes the variants end up being pretty good, though.

Clearly anyone with over 50k posts is a post whore. That's why I'm keeping my post count so much lower.

Pluse 2 extra weeks of vacation and the code to the pool.



When you hit 30k, you really know you've "made it."
