Tom,

If I got this right, you and I have the same post count. I'm going on a trip tomorrow, so you'll be the post leader again, perhaps by a huge amount as I'm going to be off doing some very important stuff and won't have time to post at all.

But I wanted to take this opportunity to tell you how much I've come to admire your mind and spirit here at Hatrack and to recognize, once again, that my higher count is not indicative of higher quality. Not by a long shot.

You are the man!

And I've enjoyed following you for all this time.

Can't wait to actually meet you, and Christy and meet your new little one!

[Hail] Tom

You've passed him, Bob.

Bob is officially one post past Tom.

This is a moment of sublime Zen in the history of Hatrack...

twinky, I know exactly what you mean.

This is very solemn. A changing of the guard has taken place, and even the birds calm and quiet in reverence of the moment.

Zen-like moment? Zen-like moment?!

Look, you two (three, counting Twinky): I had come to adjust to existing in a Hatrack universe where there were certain immutable truths. Things like homosexuality threads, last-post threads, Mafia games, flip-offs, people being devoured, and Tom having the highest fricking post-count!

Well now that's just shot to hell and not even back. I mean, what's next? Will the sun set in the east, and the moon suddenly wane and wax instead of wax and wane?
 
Posted by katharina (Member # 827) on :
 
Rakeesh, love your post count.
 
Posted by TomDavidson (Member # 124) on :
 
I'm perfectly content to pass this particular mantle to Bob. I'm neither the oldest NOR the most prolific poster here, and it's always been kind of a statistical aberration that I happened to be, for a while, old enough and prolific enough to make the charts. *laugh*

I'm glad you're around, Scopatz. [Smile]

Ok, now you're equal again.

It is the eternal battle of Good vs. Evil

But who's evil?

You just did that so you could be tied, didn't you Tom?

Wow, thanks for pointing that out, Katie. Considering my last name is Fore, that was a pretty cool occassion. To think, I blew it on either a rant concerning Israel or Tom and Bob!

Curse you!

*thinks Bob and Tom are just names used by the same committee to dominate Hatrack*

Rakeesh, what a darn shame!

Would that make Bob=kat or Bob=AJ?
 
Posted by Bob_Scopatz (Member # 1227) on :
 
Hat_Bob
or
Bob_Rack

Kristine, could you get to work on the name change?

New logo too?

[Razz]
 
Posted by Dan_raven (Member # 3383) on :
 
If Bob is either, DKW will be greatly disappointed.
 
Posted by The Thnikkaman (Member # 6330) on :
 
Kind of takes your breath away, doesn't it, Rivka?

Dan, how do you think Bob and dkw met? Committee Meeting.

Are Bob and Tom going to leave these shores?

Wait. So who had the third ring?

Yes, definitely the wonderful Anne Kate Ard.

Bob & Tom are the names of the owners of the company I work for. Bob & Tom dominate Hatrack. Hatrack & work dominate my time. Coincidence? I think not.

Back to work, solo! *glares*

What's amazing is that the Bob/Tom Committee actually hired scriptwriters from Days of Our Lives to come up with the current crop of romances, and leaned on them to make the romances come off as warm, lasting, and happy. That's how much clout they have.

Additionally, I have evidence that Hatrack is really housed on a K.A.M.A. 2100, owned and operated by---you guessed it---the Bob/Tom Committee.
 
Posted by Bob_Scopatz (Member # 1227) on :
 
Thanks Christy!

I haven't forgotten how nice it was being held by you during the Midwest gathering...nestled up to your lovely cheek!

Tom's a lucky man!
 
Posted by Teshi (Member # 5024) on :
 
This is indeed a very history-changing thread:

In years to come, people will be asking, "Where were you when Bob passed Tom?"

As far away as possible. Not a pleasant sight.

I was at a play rehersal, completely ignorant of what was happening, where were you?
 
Posted by Suneun (Member # 3247) on :
 
Okay so I really wanted to post this somewhere.

Bob, here's a celebratory treat for you!

Suneun, I'm in Atkins heaven!!!
