Im thinkin Im gonna be the closest without going over...but I'll send 1 dollar to anyone who guesses who the lucky poster will be!


Um ... Some newbie spammer with some lame story about a girlfriend who doesn't understand him and leaves cryptic coded messages. Can anybody help me solve it so she'll speak to me again? And buy my products so I can give her a nice gift. :-5

You know what! We may to guess at it then! The database tagged that post as postid 100,000 - but obviously - the date couldn't be right.

Will this forever remain a mystery?

Tombstone wrote: Hi Everyone,

First off, thank you! ForumGarden is a couple days past its 1 year birthday and we are just about ready to hit 100,000 posts.

Let's do a little poll to bet on when you think we'll hit the big 100,000 mark!
Boy am I confused. Tombstone started the thread asking when we thought we would hit the big 100,000 mark. It happened on 8/13 around 6:00 PM if I understand it right. The question as to who whould be the 100,000th poster was added later...I think. I thought I had done quite well by guessing the 13th.

After all it's about being "accountable"...right? Then there is the issue of knowing where the buck stops.:-2

and you look out over the tarmac and 500 guys are sacked out weapons all around, body armor, gear duffle bags, contraband that the brass looks the other way about... they really looked READY to me!

Now if one employee step 7 minutes over the clock I have to cousel them on how negative overtime is? give me a break!
Well it seems so logical to me :D . The economy has to be strong and efficient to be sure we have all those people ready. :yh_think
