Blowing up balloons, setting up chairs....

We're getting ready for the big 1000th post party here at Second Effort.

Actually, I think the post counter has already inched past the 1000 mark -- but it's still recent enough that it remains appropriate to note the occasion now. Besides, a lot of those prior 1000 posts have been pretty feeble, OK?

And, let's face it, Curmudgeon is such a long-winded gasbag that I couldn't exactly get him to hold up posting while we set the thousandth post party up... I did try.

And the worst of it?

Whatever he comes up with will be anti-climatic. How could it be otherwise?

But sit back, stay tuned and prepare to be disappointed... perhaps as soon as tomorrow.
