I shudder to think what he may say

We should all pitch in and get him a trophy
or...
a bobble-head crafted in his likeness
or maybe better yet...
a Mr. Potato Head crafted in his likeness.



To receive this esteemed "mega poster honorary degree"
PhD (Piled Higher & Deeper in grapes)
...i expect nothing short of a university commencement speech.

Our Dearest Heartfelt Congratulations to Sir Count Dr. Serge,
based on the past 1K, i think it's safe to say...
that we all look forward to the next 1K posts... and beyond

Zipz, loved the toy! :)

Craig, I was planning on no hoopla, but now I can't resist and will dedicate the 1000th post to people with
overblown feeling of self importance and underdeveloped and small pontac.

As far as 1000th post is concerned, I have to quote President Bush:
The Constitution is just another piece of paper,
and I can say the same about 1000th post - this is just another number, don't make big deal out of it.

Let's better save the oak trees and the Constitution.


in sum... 1k posts are a piss in the bucket, avoid St. Innocent & impeach shrub?

I am glad I was able to get my message across. In my next life I will become a "Public Speaker".

Status: offline 		Rak, considering this Monumental Event happened yesterday, the wines were:
St. Innocent at the winery- check the thread, yikes!
Proseco for dinner was so-so, I didn't even bother to write the name and the Hungarian Dry Furmint 2004 was just pathetic.

I swear, I'll celebrate 10,000th post next year in more style.

I might have a good reason to celebrate tomorrow,
Citibank and Merril Lynch announced today they will do what I want UBS to do.
THAN we'll drink!

Sorry Serge. Drank too much of the 2005 Lagar de Cervera Albarino this evening!

Here's to another 9000+ posts!

HSBC quietly did the same about one month ago.  No hoopla - but made all their auction rate security customers (including me) whole. 

Just more assets to buy wine with........

Status: offline 		yes, HSBC made this announcement few months ago. One of my classmates work as Financial Analyst in NY, she was happy for her clients.

With Citi and Merril falling today, I expect UBS to fall any day now. They know they can't win in court and they can't afford to leave USA market either.

Buy wine....I am thinking more about buying the vineyard (preferrably NOT in the sky) when I reunite with my dough! Can't be worse than SLARS.
