Time to bow out for awhile
 

I'm on the cusp of ten thousand posts ...

... and once there ...

... I think I'm going to ...

... take a break.

Maybe I'll (virtually) see y'all in a few months or so.

Mods: if you have it in your heart, please move this to PARF.

That is a lot of posts...
At least it was started a decade ago.

PARF! Blech!

amateur!

10,000 and you are talking about taking a break. "Sir! you have work to do to catch up."

:D ^ This

pftt, I'll start taking this seriously around when I get to 100k or so posts

That's not so many...you def aren't a mega-poster.
I have almost 14K..but I joined in 2002

There are some here with 3 or 4 times that amount with less years. :D

Just remember, the colitas is a plant that grows in the desert that blooms at night, and it has this kind of pungent, almost funky smell. Help you find your way back:cool:

That's just what I was thinking. You can check out any time but you can never leave.

Good on ya - enjoy the sunshine and the respite! I wish others would do the same. I'm guessing 5 posters contribute 80% of the "content" in OT. A little diversity of thought and comment might wake the place up a little.

10,000 posts deserves another 930 in your life..You're just getting started!

Hi Norm : ]

After 20 years, when I wrote my 10,000th post recently, I got four responses!

I’m a loser. 😂

Well, not really. Getting paid a dollar a post, that was an easy $10,000 you made.

The check must be in the mail…

A few months Norm says.

A few is about three, right? Three months is 90 days.

90 days is a common incarceration term for myriad legal infractions.

Just sayin'. Don't want to stir up no trouble. Just hope he holds onto the soap.

See you later, Norm. Behave, and if you can't behave, be careful

I always giggle at these "Will you miss me, when I'm gone threads.

Why would someone take a break at 10,000 posts? At 10,001 you get a set of steak knives.

Ha! I'll probably be dead before I hit the 10K mark. I've never been a major player here.

I resemble that remark and I'm headed towards 20k.

You get a watch at 25k.

I'm really looking forward to what you get at 50k!

You're close, right around the corner. We're not going to let you off/out that easy. You can't die until sometime after you hit 10k, at least!

Quality I think is more important than quantity. Marv your posts are well worth reading.:)

I could have accomplished in 100 posts what took me 19,000.

Hey! I resemble that remark!

What kind of watch do I get at 25,000? I'm kind of picky about watches, and would like a nice one.

Each person has their own style!:)

It would take me 25 years typing with one finger!

Yep, it took over 20 years to get this far.

Great! I will increase my posting dramatically now.

He gets more responses to his bow out than I get when I need help with something... Just adding numbers when I can.....

I'm probably never to make 10k posts. Is there a participation trophy?

Don't always know what I'm talkin' about
Feels like I'm livin' in the middle of doubt

Steak knives? I didn't get any steak knives. Oh well I'll look forward to the watch.
