I like Apple pie because I'm Canadian, and Canadians think that Apple pie is more Canadian than American. Same with doughnuts, bagels, and chips/french fries with cheese curd and gravy.

At long last, I have decided to reveal how I compute all these statistics. I have a secret weapon... a giant calculator!

It's got everything a math geek could possibly want - all four functions, a Clear Entry button, and it even does percentages!

So now you know my secret. Whew! I feel better now that I've 'fessed up. :eek:

Just to let you know, Doctor Q, I've got the same tee-shirt. Unfortunately for my non-geekiness, there is only one little section on it that I don't understand. *sigh* :cool:

12-Aug-2006: ~Shard~ passes edesignuk
Mr. Anderson, mad jew, wdlove, Doctor Q, ~Shard~, edesignuk, eyelikeart, jsw, iGary, Rower_CPU

Well, you were pretty close there good Doctor! My time away from MacRumors last month no doubt had an impact on this prediction, but it was still very close! :cool:

Your time away was no doubt somewhat offset by edesignuk's time being otherwise occupied...

I've been behind on the forums this summer. Where is e?

He's around...here and there. I think he's been doing a bit of traveling, like many of us have. It's that time of year...
 
It seems like many of the regulars are dropping back there posting rates. I know mine has suffered (is that the right term) in the last few months. It's interesting how this seems to align with the Intel introduction. Personally though, I blame Abstract. He smells like cheese.

Hmm, didn't I just read a post of your saying you hadn't checked your post count in a long time and couldn't care less about it? :D

Cough

Probably, that sounds like something a hypocritical bastard like myself would say.... :D :cool:

Seriously, yes I did check it yesterday and saw that the above event was about to happen... ;)

That's because the 604's are using up all the bandwidth.

Of course, I can't really talk, since a lull in work excitement has allowed me to post a little more frequently here. Sorry. :eek:
 
Only because it's you, emw...

That should be "604s", as in multiple members who are at the 604 ranking, not "604's", which is possessive. Tsk, tsk, tsk...

:p :cool:

That's the nicest thing I've heard anyone say to me in a long time.

My post rate has fallen recently. Well, it hasn't really, but I stopped posting for 2 days, and I went on vacation last month where I didn't post for 6 days (except once ;) ). That probably slowed me down.

You know I appreciate it. I must have been in too much of a hurry this morning... ;)

I'll leave it there as an example to those who read this thread in the future. :D
 
Since people always seem to like bugging me about my post count (including myself) I just thought I'd point out that in the very near future I will be passed by jsw for total number of posts. jsw, I'd like to thank you in advance, just as I have thanked mad jew many times, for making my excessive posting not look quite as bad when compared to yours. :D :cool:

Yes, I would like to recognize all the people who keep me out of the top five! :eek: ;) :D

I'd like to thank my girlfriend for keeping me out of the Top 50. :eek:

Don't be so critical of your performance rdowns, I'm sure she thinks more highly of you than that... plus, women's Top 50 lists are never that accurate... :eek: :p ;) :D
