The big 200 !!!

My 200 th post,
What a delight,
If truth be told I am feeling alright,
Now thats a suprise,
As I'm usualy down,
But for this short moment I'm wearing the crown,
an achievment,
success,
A boast,
I am king,
I am the leader,
A real wild thing .
This milestone although,
It may be quite pointless,
Puts forward the view,
That I've done something,
Dauntless .
Brave,
Robust,
And modest aswell !
I must be the best,
Not going to hell .

Every post is remarkable
for no one post is the same
and this very special post,
why, it bears YOUR name!

Well done!

Thanks very much both of you, every milestone means a lot to me, they give me an excuse to celabrate something as I have little else to celabrate in my life .

congrates, I'm trying to catch up to you, first one to 300 wins.  

 After all, what is reality anyway? Nothin' but a collective hunch.

Congrad Angelswings, a lovely poem. I just hit the big 800 last night. I seem to be living at this site. Well just so you all know, I have been chained to a computer with passions permanently on the screen and I can't escape...help me some one. I think I ma in Ron's basement. lol

200 already?  I thought you were taking a break from all this.  You have other priorities you know.

Congratulations!!!  I can remember when I hit 200. . . it doesn't seem like you've been here that long does it??

Don't worry, you'll be hitting 2,000 (like me!!) before you know it!!
