Hope someone is thinking/planning something special/unique for #8000 tonight.
I've been strangely quiet on this thread lately.
Is billy even still here?
If I get the next 8 posts, though, my 900th post could be the thread's 8000th.
That would be pretty cool, right? 900 and 8000 in a single post?
The big question, though, is whether or not there's another big player landmark between here and there for me.
I had to pause for a while to savor the Shane Battier status. What if something similar comes up again?
Only 4 more to go. If I do get the biggie, I'll have to come up with something clever.
Even if the big 8000 isn't mine, I'll still have to wax poetic for my 900th post.
Okay, will it be mine, or will I miss my own assist?
O welcome to the thread so fair
A neighborhood of all one mind
To come and chat is what we do.
There's Bostondevil - playwright and knitter,
Starter of our glorious thread.
Lavabe of lemur fame,
Devildeac, beer's his game.
Earljam pops in to make us laugh,
Random topics are the rule.
From DevilAlumna in the west
To YMo and Billybreen in the east
And DukieInKansas in the country's heart
We'll keep the thread going for 8000 more
And join Ozzie4Duke in watching Carolina go to Hell!
(What can I say. I'm a scientist!)

You are correct. Sorry about that! I did think of you as I was writing and couldn't think of a way to work you in. I was writing quickly. The natural way to work you into the poem would be to add a line about your location. I think I can still edit - let's see what I can come up with.
