For my 27th thousand post on DU.

7. Congratulations on 27k, SW.

I guess I started posting here a little before you. I hadn't thought of our "posting race" in years. I think you won, iirc.

I feel the same way about U, even after all this time. I had it set as my homepage too, for many years, but for some reason changed it. However, with Chrome and Macs, I seem to always have a DU tab open whenever I pop the lid in any case.

I always get a great, warm feeling when I see one of your posts and know I can anticipate wit, compassion, and wisdom when I open it. It's good to know you're in the world.
