Well hello there Erick.  For an underweight guy you sure

displayed enormous strength in dragging me into the

bloggerhood...or is it blogger nation??. Actually no

prodding was necessary- for I think it is a great idea!

I'm already envisioning what we are going to do when we

get our millionth subscriber.....balloons, confetti- the

works!  And of course, the lucky winner has to actually

win something of substantial value so I'm thinking 2 new pairs

of shiny red boxing gloves.  On second thought,

perhaps it is too soon to assemble the prize committee

just yet- as all this could take a few months and I

believe that we all need to be a little more patient these

days.
