Here you go. A special little place to post the CNN news and one liners to boost the post count.

You may post when ready Gridley.....

NEWS FLASH:

Right now I am eating cheese...it is very good!

As a side note I see that you are almost up to 5000 Mook, maybe with this thread you can get there by later this afternoon! Perhaps 5000 is the illustrious 6th star!

That's quite a scoop! I didn't see it on CNN or anywhere.
Maybe they'll pick it up later.

Not a bad idea. Just happen to have one close by - wonder if he would like to go for a walk!

But you would think as important as this forum is to all of us, they would have IT staff on 24/7. We work on it 24/7!
