Over 1,000 posts and I did not even know there was a club! Part of the wonder of FT is that there is s much to discover and so little time to do it. When I see people with over 1,000 posts I cannot help but wonder where they find the time. I've been here 2 years now and cannot believe that I have averaged over 48 posts per month.
My thanks to the FT community for all the help I have received. My only surprise is that I have never met another FTer while traveling even though my carryon has a FT luggage tag. I've never seen anyone else with a FT tag.
I do not fly nearly as much as most of you in the 1,000 post club but I do get around a bit. In the past year, I have been to Canada (YVR and YYC), mainland China and Hong Kong, Chicago (ORD and MDW), Atlanta, New York (LGA and EWR), Cincinnati, Indianapolis and Cancun. Maybe next year I'll run into one of you as I fly through Atlanta or Cincinnati into Las Vegas, South Africa, Bermuda and other not so interesting places.
I do not expect to make the 2,000 mark in 2007 unless I get carried away with the Omni counting to 100,000 thread! I think NOT.

Me too - I'm here !!!!!
Never thought I'd see the day .....
To be a part of such an esteemed club is truly humbling
And on we go ..... Let's see how quickly I can do the next 1000 without getting fired at work or by the wife!!!

And, with this post I, too, have arrived! 1,000 posts! It took me just shy of 11 months, a lot of embarrassment and much, much learning along the way! I'm very appreciative of the FT community and hope to be more and more a part of it in the coming 1,000 posts. And, I just want to add that there's no way I could have achieved this milestone this quickly without OMNI!
So, while I'm happy to join the club, I will now hop off this self-congratulatory soapbox and work towards more "respectable" FT milestones! See y'all around!

Yee haw!
Announcing my membership into the club with this post!
Okay, so it's not a big milestone but this is probably my longest-running association with any online community But it is still significant so is there a pin or sweater or something? How about a 1K drink?

I have finally made it to the 1,000 post mountain top. Or is it only a hill?
Only took me a little over 5 years to get here. Early on, it seemed like 500 posts was a long way off. Many thanks to all who have helped along the way. My family and I thank you all for keeping our points and miles flowing.
