Okay, so after doing some reconciliation, I have determined that this is not the 1,000th post on
HKC.
Believe it or not, I had two posts on what would become HKC way back in December 2003, but they were just content-free tests, back in the day when Blogspot didn't play well with Macs. There was another post in January 2005 that was just a test-link to Flickr, but posting in earnest didn't begin until early March 2005. (I think Wheylona was tinkering with Viva! at the same time, and I went public about two weeks before she did.)
Anyway, I have deleted those early proto-posts, so this is actually post number 997. You'll have to wait a few days for the big celebration. (Wheylona is at 996, so perhaps she'll have some fireworks soon, too.)
Yesterday wound up being the first day in a long time that I didn't get around the lake. What with Otis's schedule, and then recovering the Spectrator, and then heading to LFP to welcome Pater home from hospital, and then the Humpday Dinner's running really late, we just never got out there. It's much better to get it done early in the day, so I will be heading out in a little while, during Otis's morning appointment.
I don't know how it reflects on his qualifications for holding public office, but watching Al Franken draw an accurate map of the U.S. freehand is at least a pretty impressive party piece.
Oopsdate 11:33 am: I forgot that last night some folks requested a rerun of the pirate-monkey-ninja-robot quiz. So here it is!

Hmmm, 1000th posts. I guess something needs to be done to record this happy event...no idea but if you have any good ideas give a shout. If we wanted to be really geeky, we could coordinate our 1000th posts and be all self referential and shit. ;-)
I saw the Al Franken vid earlier today, and it's super impressive given that not many American can *name* all 50 states or ID them on an already drawn map. I say Obama and McCain should have a Map America Off!
I'm a ninja!
