Great idea !

[cherokee woman]

Joe, that's o.k.: Sunflower deserves a day off!! We'll just use our dog, Winter;
and Jim's dog, Duchess!!

Brian, I agree wholeheartedly with you: let's let our illustrious Diner owner,
Jim, be the 10,000th poster!! And if not him, maybe Nance69 and Bob can
come into the Diner.

[JoeKoh]

stay safe
Joe

Brian, that's a nice gesture. I'm down with that.
I'll have an apple-cinnamon muffin with a coffee. Gotta save room for the roast beef![dinner]

8 TO GO!

We're in the final countdown- hopefully I'll be here to see it, but church beckons, and if I don't get blown away trying to get there and back, I'll check in later. Happy Sunday, everyone.

...Overnight wind and rain here for us....not bad this morning and rain is past over in Ohio now.....But leaves....!!! Neighbors trees put them down too and some are Tulip Trees also...Hence our street is named for them. So it's more leaves to clean up {from western neighbor's}...as ours are all evergreen...no leaves, none....On purpose.
56 degrees here this morning....Not bad for mid November. Have brand new temp. instrument {wireless}, that tells me outside temp too...Great. Believe rain is finished for now....

[JoeKoh]

good morning
juice and coffee are ready to go.its going to be a hold on to your hat day today as we have a wind advisory.i've also got pics ready for the trains photo contest and now am working on pics for the calander for csx.
stay safe
Joe

[CShaveRR]

I thought we'd be over 10K by now, for sure! I'm looking forward to steak for dinner tomorrow--hope I'm not disappointed.

Sarah, we picked up another seven bags of leaves this past week--and with today's wind and rain it doesn't look like we did anything. We still have one maple in the back yard with green leaves mostly up on the tree--and our backyard neighbor's tulip tree will wait until everything else is raked up before dropping those huge leaves. I'm just glad I don't have a pond to contend with!

Had some yard work to do today, so headed for the home supply store for some mulch. Got the mulch down, but a lot later than planned. As I was on my way home one of our local fire departments was dispatched for a broken gas line. At the mall. Had the potential so I turned around.

The entire mall was evacuated, probably 1000+ cars, through two exits. I spent an hour or better directing traffic, keeping people from going in and helping move people out. Most people were like "The Mall is CLOSED?!?" A few had valid concerns - they had dropped a kid or an employee off at the mall and now I wasn't letting them in to find them (the road I was working was downwind and had a smell of gas). Shortly after the last car left the parking lots, they got things fixed and reopened the mall.....

Then on the way home, I encountered an accident... Some days.

CW, how about a couple of slices of pepperoni and a root beer float to drown my sorrows? My local high school, which my mom, my siblings, my niece, my nephew, my daughter and I attended/are attending, made it to the state finals for football for the first time since 1968. They lost by two points after a field goal in the last 15 seconds by the other team. At least it wasn't a blowout. I had to work so I listened to the game on the radio and got pretty steamed at the announcers. Two plays before the field goal, my team was penalized for pass interference. In the pros it would have been waved off as an uncatchable pass but in high school Federation rules it was a valid call as a penalty. I spent nine seasons as a Federation official so I knew the difference. I was screaming at the radio for the announcers to stop calling it a blown call. It was a tough break but the right call. Sorry to turn this into an off-topic rant[soapbox] but the radio station had no one answering their phone today.[:(!]
I'm still sticking around for this party! 13 to go!

[cherokee woman]

Well, I'm working on getting all the food ready for the celebration. Got
Mutt working on the decorations. This Diner/Coffee Shop is going to
be "looking goooooood"!! And I've baked , iced and decorated more than
two cakes for this auspicious occasion[C=:-)][C=:-)]

[locomutt]

Jim,The meatloaf here is the best anywhere,along with the
potatoes;but I'm afraid you'll have to settle for something else
to drink besides the Sam Adams.......owner says no alcohol.

Besides the advice that CSXrules4eva gave you;here is another
GOOD ONE to remember : DO NOT MIFF THE CAT !!

[Anonymous]

Thanks everyone for the warm welcome. [:)]

How's the meatloaf here? I'll take a slice with some mashed potatoes and a large glass of Sam Adams .... and I'm going to blame all of you for my excess winter weight. [;)]

[espeefoamer]

Almost to 10,000[8D].MMMMM,I smell pizza baking.Ill have a few slices of pepperoni,sausage,and mushrom with a large Coke,and some chocolate cake for dessert[dinner] [:)].

[blhanel]

18 to go!

I'll take my usual order of a couple of slices of Supreme please...

Welcome from Iowa, Jim!

[cherokee woman]

Well guys (and gals), the first of the pizzas are now in the oven, baking.

And, as it happens, I believe I DO have a great meal planned for
tomorrow. You'll all just have to wait until tomorrow to see what Dinner
will be.

One thing I will let you all in on: we will skip the usual Sunday brunch,
and there will be a big breakfast in the morning; then Sunday dinner.

[CSXrules4eva]

Jim_White welcome to the Diner and to the forums!!!!![#welcome] I have a word of advise for you don't **** off the cook!!!

Carl if you were to delete some of your posts in the Diner I'm sure both Mookie and CW will be on you like a ticked off CRO after Corn Syrup Cars. lol

I do wonder what CW has cooked up for the 10,000 post mark??/

Well, I did some house work today. I had to get the leaves up from around the pond area out back of my house. I have a great big Red Oak tree over the pond which creates a lot of leaves over the pond and around the back yard. I have too many trees on the property over 20, I love trees but, the leaf patrol isn't fun. Man that was a lot of work, I'm glad to be done with it.

10,000 - 9978 = 22

I think I hear some singing in the background. I hope it is not the fat lady. [;)]


Carl [:)]

I think the 20 posts per page is an average, or possible the maximun number possible per page. But we have to remember, some people (like me lol) have pics in their sig and other icons as well, so that extra room takes away from the max number of posts possible per page. [:0] [B)] [8]

We could hit the big number later tonight. But more likely tomorrow. I think my previous prediction, about 2 weeks ago, was for this coming Monday. (That is if my memory serves me right, I didn't go back and check for the post.) So [C=:-)]CW will probally be up all night getting the final preparations ready.

Sarah was in the diner as I was getting this typed so we may be off a post by the time I post this. That is if she does post.

Can you say P A R T Y ? [:D] [8D] [:D] [bday] [dinner] [{(-_-)}]

GOOD afternoon everyone how is we all doin today fine and dandy I hope well anywho the trees here are almost bare but the funny thing is the temp here today is 64 degrees and but it is going to get colder later on today and we are going to get more rain to and tomorrow is going to get really windy again for the second time this month. But anywho I know it's been couple of days sincre I have written but I have been getting home really late from work the last couple of nights and by the time I get home I'm just really to tired to come into the diner to get something to eat but. Now that the weekend is here I can spend most of my day in the diner to help out and to eat but oh well that's really about it from this end hope to be talkin to you soon so have a good day [:D][:D]

[CShaveRR]

Hmmm...then my calculation is a bit off, for some reason--the 10000th post will be about six items down on page 501.

I'll probably be at work when the big moment arrives, but I'm pretty sure that today will be the day!

(I wonder what would happen if I suddenly deleted all of my posts!)

[tree68]

The counter said 9975 when I checked before I started this post, so we're under 25 to the big moment!

Jim - Welcome to the forums and the diner from another northern New Yorker. Drop me an email off-line if you'd care to share where you are.

Looks like a nice day here - which is good as I have a few things to do outside. Might rain tomorrow, so can't procrastinate too much longer. So, off to the race track! (Actually, the flower garden out front - time to mulch for the winter...)

[locomutt]

[#welcome] to the Forums and particularly the "Diner" Jim;
Always nice to have new people come in for the "cuisine".

If CW's calculations are correct;it looks like I have the
"Dubious Honor" of taking this thread to 500 pages.

OH WELL,Lets go for 500 more !!!![swg]
