I know, it's a strange number, not exactly divisible by 5 or 10. But *still* 19,000 is something to celebrate, right?
And I couldn't find an existing topic for this, so I just thought I'd make one up :D
~Shooting for 20K before turning in for the night. Although 25 K is preferred :)

(To think I almost started this thread myself... ;)
I reached 19K shortly before midnight, and I'm spending my break here on the Shoutouts forum. Next: 20K, and then hopefully 21K and beyond. But I have to get my happy dance out of the way first... ;)

whoops: correction. It *is* divisible by both 5 and 10, but the 19 part of it by itself is not. There.
