First 500?

Hey volkul, wouldn't it have been more cost effective to just buy a new heli rather than renting all those bill boards and TV air time? hehehe--BladeRunner

DOH

Blade,
Thanks for putting me on the spot...

To All

I feel fortunate that this many people have choosen to vote for me and I am truly gratful to them for their kind thoughts.

However let it be said, it ain't over till the fat lady sings. She isn't peeping a note till 5 Nov and who knows what can happen between now and then.

To quote another phrase "I'm just the first horse out of the gate, that doesn't mean I can take it to the home stretch".

Again thanks to all. Today (25 Oct) I see 18 votes for myself, in the end who knows. I feel maybe I have had a positive influence on the hobby and some of the people here at RunRyders and that has been my goal the entire time.

oops...

Anyone else notice the member posts and referral stats switches order half way through the list? Goes from 'posts and referrals' to 'referrals and posts'...

It makes me have to actually think when comparing statistics.

I think the template is probably manually typed by Mark.

What I meant is that the template was manually typed by him but the numbers are automatically filled by the server.

Have you seen?

StuartN,
Have you seen my 15-second commercial spot during the World Series? It’s supposed to play during the swap out of teams in the 4th inning. It cost less than the blimp! Then again I was having the blimp fly over the World Series too.

I know the means sometimes can’t justify the end but I figure what the heck. I’m using the Microsoft approach.

HAHAHA, You are killing me.

Everyone,

I must give a great big THANKS to all those who have voted for me thus far. I never imagined that the voting would go as it has. I am truly humbled before you all.

Thanks again!
