Randy!
Well done and thank you for your contributions!!!
yes
congratulations
Come on, "motor fingers", pick up the pace! :P
Thanks everyone. If I could get liquored up you'd see some motor fingers alright. Morphine doesn't do it. Oxycontin might but I can't crush the tablet so the pills are worthless.
Unfortunately what you see are the ramblings of a sober man. :)

Randy gets a spoon or fork, or a knife!
Congratulations.
I'm glad you are here.
Thank you, Magdalena. I love it here. It's a fun group and I feel like I fit in. :)
Congratulations on 1000 valuable posts.
Congrats, Randy! Sober or not, 1000 posts is an important milestone and the newly one thousanded-ed-ed-ed member must make a speech. ;D
Speech! Speech! Speech! Speech! :cheers:
Stands on soap box although already tall:
Friends, I humbly stand before you in my pajamas. They have little bears all over them against blue fabric. But that has nothing to do with the speech so please ignore that. Besides, it's not quite dignified when behind a virtual podium.
I accept this... this... actually I don't know what this is but I accept it anyway with pride. I hope to be a shining example to others whom have yet to cross this milestone that if I can do it then I talk too much. I mean, if I can do it so can you.
Steps off soapbox.

It doesn't look like The Magic Pudding is around anymore. I may have missed something though. :-\

Marvin is one incarnation, but I don't recall the order though.
What do I tell Bad Penny II? Do I send him a private message?
I should go back and read through the threads about how all this got started. "Why cutlery" is what comes to mind.
I made my own. Tank and Recusant helped with making the background invisible. I didn't know that they started out as only spoons. But they did evolve to other implements before I showed up in these parts, on Dave's coat tails, so to speak. We had met at another atheist site, but he was disgusted with the level of animosity he saw, and moved on from them. I still am a member of a couple others. One is sort of on the wane, and the one I left finally imploded when the host got tired of the viciousness. That sort of coalesced into another forum where that level of viciousness isn't tolerated.
Congratulations, Randy! :daisies: And blue pajamas with little bears on them are acceptable everywhere.
Thanks DL. I know how to make a background transparent in a .png which is a head start I suppose. I've got plenty of time on my hands just not the energy anymore to do much. I mostly read, visit the forum, and watch TV, oh and write e-mail.
I'll see what I can do with Photoshop and images of spoons. Maybe that's the way to go.

Thank you Sandy for your approval. I'm kind of surprised I still have these after all the years that have past. A year or two ago I bought more because I'm always in bed now but these with the bears still remain.

Dang! Well done, Randy! I always enjoy reading your posts, and appreciate you spending time with us here. I'll just say what I usually say -- here's to the next 1,000! :cheers:
Thanks Recusant! I'm already at 1025 messages so I'm on my way to the next milestone. I'll probably get there sometime in the late spring or early summer. I'm actually surprised I reached this. At least it keeps my typing skills up to par. :)

Hi, welcome to HAF.
Spoons - 1,000 posts
knife - 2,000
I don't know when Puddin came up with it, but it just kinda stuck as an haf thing. I really like it. <3
Spoons - because we stir up shit ;D
Knives - because we cut through bad arguments.
Forks - because we eat up the camaraderie here.
Corkscrews - because we like winers, but not whiners.
See? It works!
:grin:
I'm enjoying the ѱrty.

You can do that or give me suggestions of
a theme themes.
Anyone can suggest a theme, all I've got is IT guy.

How about something to do with coffee? That's another theme that comes to mind.

Those are good ideas. I don't know why I didn't think about it. If it's beer can Penny make it Guinness?
Maybe a little beer on your pajamas? ;D
Well done Randy!
I'm incredibly proud of my spoon, thanks Bad Penny!

Now that would be a waste of a good stout. :)
Penny here's another idea. Up until about two years ago i played the guitar. I had been playing it since I was a teenager. I own three. Maybe that will help.
Grats, Randy.
The masterful Bad Penny also crafted the image in my signature. 8) :grin:
The masterful Bad Penny also crafted my beautiful, psychedelic spoon. :tellmemore:
We've given BP the second a few ideas. Maybe he can use them.

I haven't considered it. However, the lute would be fine. :)
