How it feels to be a WACKO - 02/22/00 01:26 AM
Yesterday, one of the highlights of the year happened to me. I posted # 50 and became a WACKO. I have showed everybody who has walked into my office that message. I have been advised to post it here so here it is
I'M A WACKO
CONGRATULATIONS TO ME CONGRATULATIONS TO ME
CONGRATULATIONS TO ME,ect.ect.ect
So John, does this mean I get a Cape Hatteres

Jim - If you think John will give you a Hatteras, then you never needed to reach 50. You're already as WACKO as you can get. Congratulations on making it. More WACKO's make the world a better place. Taking that statement a little further, then the more Newbies, the more potential WACKO's and thus an even better world. Keep at it Newbies.

Congratulations Pop!
Cape Hatteras gifts are given by the last person to reach 500 posts or more.
And you'll be responsible for donuts at the next chat.

welcome to the wonderful world of wackodom!
A year ago if someone told me I would be excited about being a wacko, I would have questioned THEIR sanity.... now I question MINE!
Happy Wacko To You!

Congratulations to Jim, Brent and Dale. Welcome to Wackoland!! The people at my work just don't understand why anyone would be excited about being named a Wacko. They haven't caught the bug yet but I'm working on them.

The other day when I finally achieved "Wacko" status, I broke the news to my girlfriend who, in turn, looked at me and said...."I've known that all along...so what's the big deal?" (Side note: two years ago when we started dating, she had never been to a lighthouse let alone collecting HL's)....now she's been to 14 "lights" and has been fully exposed to my HL collection and obsession for purchasing the "next piece"...LOL! Now...."she's into it"!

Gee....now that I've gone over a "hundred posts, does that make me a "Double Wacko"? What does it take to reach "total insanity"? Any ideas?

Hey "POPZ" I can relate to the tax return being due. Should be a good one this year. But alas, need new floor tile in the kitchen. maybe there will be enough left for one or two HL's
