*Hear, hear.  Too bad we can't have a potluck dinner in celebration tomorrow.

I'd bring one of my much-sought-after tater tot casseroles...mmmmm!!!  And I could whip up one of my really yummy chocolate cakes...

Re: 30,000th post! - Yihaa!

It's a great achievement, reaching 30k posts - let's hope we get to 50k soon!

As for me, I backed up the database tonight to celebrate, and did some spring cleaning of the website (deleted 100MB of junk mail and two years worth of log files). What fun! smile :band:
