Don't wet yourself just yet. I've been here just as long before the meltdown and spend my 500 post on your celebration. Congrats! In the last ten years here I've lived in four countries, worked for a select fortune 50 companies, been broke and destitute on the streets of Loundon, traveled to countless counties, dated women twenty years my junior, married a very beautiful russian woman, spent $250k on whatnots (can't remember), and now somewhat settled to a managed role with one DBA report.
Fuk dat! Geten dis dagen fra. Um retorie esplanonis.
Cheers,
Jon

If that will cause you to stop posting, I can fix that problem! 
I like having you around... I like to abuse the elderly and if you leave I'm pretty sure that I'll be the oldest one left around here!

Everyone needs a cover story. By Everyone I mean Brad Pitt in a character role.
