That looked somewhat similar to the one that started page 99, but rotated. There, I've said something about both posts.

That's only 49...it's supposed to to be 50 and that was my point I forgot !! And am I the only one that noticed we went over 11,000 registered members...That is NOTHING to sneeze about !!

Well it's 7 x 7, so I can't make it more than 49. I didn't know it was supposed to be 50.

Try this..

Who is going to be the one who has the honour to make this the first thread to reach a hundred pages ?

Nothing would make me happier! But this one won't push it over the top.

b0b said somewhere that there are 24 items per page...
This makes 12 so if I repeat it 12 more times it should turn over to 100. Naaaw !! That's dummber then my flag effort. Sorry Alan...maybe you could quote this 12 times and you would get the...what prize was mentioned ? $5,000 !! Where is that quote button when you need it ??

...to give, and ask no reward save that of knowing that we do b0b's will.

(to paraphrase)

Here's to
100

Once more to make this look like nothing has happened.

I give up

There's NOTHING more to say.

Paul Hoaglin · Post by **Paul Hoaglin** » 14 Jul 2011 10:56 am

Ah, infinite regress. Which will never lead to nothing! (Nor would infinite egress, for that matter. That's bound to lead to something.)

The number 100 has two zeros in it. That's not precisely nothing, but it's more nothing than something else, right? At least enough to stay almost on topic? There's really nothing I would want more....

Are you trying to say, Alan, that nothing is now your porpoise in life? I know you're having a hard time getting the Procrastinator's Workshop started, but that's no reason to give in to despair, or dis pair of pears for that matter....

Please don't do that. The server doesn't like it.

Alan Brookes · Post by **Alan Brookes** » 14 Jul 2011 3:51 pm

The porpoise was to achieve 100, which we did.

Bobby Lee is the winner, pushing us over the century.

Congratulations everyone On 100 pages of NOTHING.

My complaint was that page 99 had over 1,000 smilies on it. That put an unnecessary burdon on the server's processor and on the bandwidth. Every time someone looked at page 99 it slowed down the server. It's ironic that this thread, which is supposed to be about nothing, contained the heaviest page in the entire Forum database. $:\$

Please don't make arrays of hundreds of smilies. They may look cute but they're a real nuisance. Processor cycles and bandwidth are not "nothing".

Thanks for removing them, Alan.

Alan Brookes · Post by **Alan Brookes** » 15 Jul 2011 9:00 am

Sorry about that. I thought they looked cute, but I didn't realize how much processing memory they used.

I've been off this thread for a long time. I guess I missed nothing?

I assume, in my absence ya'll have kept up the tradition of contributing nothing?

b0b, I removed my smilie, so my post has absolutly nothing.
