Just got back from date night with the wife, and we saw side effects. It was pretty good, and Hitchcockian is probably a pretty good description.

We really need to celebrate when we reach post # 100,000. I think that we all should meet at a spot in the middle of the United States and have a party. Wouldn't that be the coolest thing?
 
I couldn’t agree more. That would be a great way for me to be presented with my 100K Poster Pin.

Well, your house is probably closest to being centrally located for most of us. And you have the space
 
Maybe there is a Chick-Fil-A nearby.

I'd come, for sure.
 
There used to be quite a few boards sprinkled around Edmunds that had the spirit of comradery that this one exhibits, but owing to a big Edmunds philosophy change several years ago, all but this one are gone, so far as I know.

How about Earth City, Missouri? Check it out and you will see why it is a great location?

Try telling that to Houdini, Isellhondas, Michael, Gogiboy, Snake, etc. Besides, I wouldn't get to take a road trip if you came here.
 
Jmonroe: I agree. Edmunds should give us our 100K post pins. I'll take mine as one large round diamond surrounded by a cluster of rubies. In fact, Edmunds should set us all up at a five star resort for a week. This should include a wide variety of automobiles for all of us to try. At the end of the week, we each take home the car of our choice. What is it that we always say? If you don't ask, you don't get.

We have a brand new one here in town that opened in December.

For the big get together I would suggest the hometown of our wonderful HOST, KIRSTIE.
 
Columbia, Mo is right in the middle of the country, plus Kirstie would be there to do all the work, etc. I am sure she could put quite a few of us up and I bet she is a great cook.
 
I nominate Richard to work out all the details with Kirstie and report back ASAP. What a wonderful surprise this will be for her!

Yes, now the "experts" are devoting their efforts to running off everyone who used to post on the Inside Line blogs; some Long Term Test blog entries would generate over one hundred comments. Since the suits rolled out the "New and Improved" version a blog entry is lucky to get five comments...

And in this case you do ask and you still don't get.....
 
No worries about me going out and shoveling snow. I had stopped a year or two ago, then had the transplant and am now rehabbing a strained right rotator cuff.
 
Reading is a good thing.
 
We also have a new 46" Samsung LED TV that we just picked up but the pitchers and catchers haven't arrived yet.
