I should have jumped on that time. Exactly 58 years after the issuance of my birth certificate. I thought that Sunday chat might spur a little spike, though.

Correct guesses from here on are only good for 1/2 of a mackerel slap. Evo gets to choose which half.

Don't worry drizzle. She'd throw her back out (and probably re-break her arm) just trying to hoist that rascal.

I had a dream last night that right before we hit the 200,000 mark, Greg purged a ton of accounts and we dropped back to 138,000 members. :eek:

Actually, my post depicts what went through my mind when I read about Evo's nightmare. It gave me an idea for a way to manipulate the outcome of this member contest by using some expendable income, for selfish reasons of course. :biggrin:

Quite do-able, then. Let's hope that instructors and profs hand out some very tough homework questions today and tomorrow. :devil:
