It seems to me it's a little like a small town here, (and I've lived in my share of small towns.) We have this thread celebrating the 2000th member and another thread complaining about the food conversations. (Which to me is very small town) I think it's a really great group. And just like a small town, the better it is the more people want to live here.

I tend to agree Ladymoon. But my beef with the sandwiches  is not the topic per se - I just hate to see the same stuff over every thread, no matter what other people are trying to talk about. By and large, it's a very happy little town.

Unfortunately, we can no longer compete in the Talent from Towns Under 2000 contest anymore.

So in honor of the 2000th member, you're all invited to my house for a feast (with lots of non-starchy vegetables for the diabetics). Where I will feed everyone to the point they won't even want to think about food again. Thus killing two threads with one bird.
This providing you can get here because I'm currently snowed in and waiting to be hit with the next CA rolling blackout.
I'm going to give up on the spellchecker, It suggested diabolic for diabetic.

Poster: Marianna I notice the magic number of registered users is 1999! One more to go, folks... and my question is, do we find out who exactly is the 2000th person to register?
Marianna has a great question here folk! Who, indeed, was the Poster 2000 Child? Would Anu know? Would he tell? Let us all face towards Columbus and invoke The Great Muse. wow

I'll do it, but you'll have to tell me where he's buried!

Some say the explorer is buried at El Faro Colon in Santo Domingo in the Dominican Republic. Others say he rests at the Seville Cathedral in Spain. Mysteries, mysteries.

Most evidence points to Columbus still being buried in Santo Domingo Cathedral, and some people say it was his son's remains that were transferred to Havana and then back to Seville. Given the confusion, let all and sundry face towards Madrid and its central Plaza de Colón, where there is indeed a most famous statue of the great traveller, arm extended, pointing -of course- at the Americas.
