Locomutt is seeing RED
Posted by louisnash on Wednesday, March 2, 2005 6:02 AM
Congratulations to Locomutt hitting the rank of 5 Star General with his 2000th post.
He is one of the elite and I'm jealous.

Thanks to him for all his contributions to the forums and all the kindness he has shown me in our emails back and forth. And especially all those SURPRISES that have been showing up.

Congratulations mutt, on reaching 2000 posts. I knew you'd get
there. But I'm NOT calling you "General" Locomutt[}:)]

Maybe "general" something else?

Thanks all,I couldn't have done it, if you all didn't post anything
for me to comment on.

No need to call me "General",When I was in the military,was only
enlisted,not officer. Just call me 'Sarge'.

Mook; tried to wear a collar with 'stars on it,but like chevrons better.
Besides,I don't like anything that's tight around my neck.

Larry; YOU HAVE no idea;(hmmmm,maybe you do.[}:)]

Brian; Thank you,you'll get there.[:)] (don't be green )

Congrats to "Loco" on a fine job. I am personally closing in on "Gold Stars" territory and hope to join the semi-elite group soon.

Wow! Congratulations!

I'll never catch you--I'm only two-thirds of the way there (or thereabouts). Maybe I can blame it on the weather.
