Well, once again I have achieved another milestone in my short bikeforums career. This will be my 100th post. While I may not have reached Sumo cyclist status it does mean that I've spent far too much time in here. ;)

Okay, I should probably get back to work now.

Thank you Cheryl...
Well I've met many great people in here from all over the country and the world. That's one of the great things about the internet, you get to speak with people from all over the world.

One of the great things about Bikeforums is that you get to experience people's daily adventures. Where else can I go to experience Pete's ramblings, Howard almost getting run over by a car, and failing...I mean passing Poptart's quiz. :o

Oh yeah, I see that you are only 2 posts away from Senior status. Post away....

Hey Badger...

I don't really do much road riding but that will probably change by the end of the year. I'm planning on buying a road bike sometime in November or December. My main passion is dirt but I think it would be fun to change it from time to time. Plus my body tends to get beat up riding 20 to 30 miles off-road 5 times a week so it would be nice to put some miles without the pounding.

I wonder how Johnny Bravo would do on Poptart's quiz?

That's a good idea Joe. I think Johnny will take that quiz!!!! ;)

Grinder, I read your answers to Poptart's quiz as Johnny Bravo. Very impressed. Is he your alter ego?

Badger,

Let me know when you are coming into No. Cal. I'm sure I can get my hands on a road bike. Have you ridden in the Bay Area before?

No, not my alter-ego. Just think he's really funny. He's so opposite of how we're supposed to be.
I grew up with two sisters, no brothers. Now I've been married about 10 years and have two daughters. Even the hamster's name is Snow White! I'm doomed I tell you, Doomed! Maybe I'm repressing? :)

I'm just glad none of the girls were offended. ;)

Congrats, Joe!

By the way, yes, you are doomed!!!! There's no turning back...yes, even when you go to the "dark side" (marriage). ;)

My alter-ego is SpongeBob...although one of my friends calls me "Kato" from the Green Hornet...

Geez TechnoGirl now you've scared all of the guys.

By the way, I'm a closet SpongeBob fan. Shhh...Don't tell anybody. I have to maintain my image.

But, really, we need to get Dirtgrinder out of his fetal position!

Put this milestone to use! At 100 posts you can pick your custom user title :) (its in your profile)

I need to come up with something witty to put as my title. I'll have do to some thinking about this at work. Maybe I'll call a meeting and have a brain storming session.

Nah, that wasn't ME that put him over the edge, was it? ;)

yeah, I figure I can kill a couple of hours in the meeting throwing pencil at the ceiling. Of course, I too will probably get fired once my Director figures out why I called a meeting.

I'm eating a whopper while I type this. This is the first time I've had a hamburger in six months. Man does that taste good. Sorry, I could never be a vegetarian. I need to find a Fuddruckers around here.

I can feel the pull of spamity....
BFC law of mindless threads:Large bodies of totally off topic posts attract newbie's and junior members seeking 100 posts. And where there is off topic nonsense, Pete Clark is very near.

Yeah, Fubar, but Pete's soooooo good at being off topic! :D
