Wow, I've finally made it to that elusive fourth star! It's been just under a year since I joined and I remember that when I first started posting here that the only four-star member was Ed. Now we have people getting fifth stars. I suppose I'll have mine too eventually. Right now, I'm just happy to have made it this far!


CONGRATS! I've just posted over 400,and am proud to be this far.

Sask, congratulations. That too is my goal to make it there in under a year, and I'm well on my way, its only been about 6 months. I look forward to reading many more of you posts.

Sask,

Congrats. You are now in the "constellation." A forum elite!

Each star signifies new levels of wisdom and eventual guru status!

Am I blowing enough hot air yet?

Plead read the following posting with a grandfatherly accent:

Why I remember when you young wippersnappers had only two stars....[:)][:D]

Please read normally:

Just remember who helped you on the way up....[:)]

Congratulations,
