aaooowww!
So this entry is your 200th post? That seems like cheating. I wonder what Daniel Boorstin would think of it?
(I keed, I keed. Congrats, and keep them coming!)
"Nobody does it better. Makes me feel sad for the rest. Nobody does it... half as good as you. Baby you're the best!"
Damnit! See there. You've made me pull out the Carly Simon. I will never forgive you for this. NEVER!!!
Congrats Babe!
Why don't you do what every sitcom does for its milestone episodes....
Clipshow! Your favorite quotes from the previous 200 posts. Something to make us laugh a little, cry a little....hang our heads in shame when we realize we inadvertantly quote Bette Midler a little. Crap!
....anyway, congratulations on 200.
