I would like to draw attention to the fact....

[walterick]

that Natalie our wonderful momma-creative spirit is about to make her 1,000 post on the pr.com sites. I think this is a monumentous occasion and should be celebrated with much revelry and joy. To my knowledge she is the first to do so, beating all the administrators (though Liz isn't far behind?) and even King John himself. Natalie, I would be honored if you would make your 1,000 post here in this thread.

I would die a happy man.

Yours to the millenium,
Rick

[Liz]

You only have 24 to go until we have a party for you. Whatever works for an "internet party" Rick will have to tell us.

I'm only about 300 posts behind!

Don't die yet Rick......you can catch up!

Liz

[walterick]

I don't know - you old folks are runnin cricles around me! I better start do photo critiquing!!

An internet party... hmm I'll start working on that...

Rick

[natatbeach]

presto chango---although I don'tknow if that's necesarrily a good thing... could mean I need a LIFE!!!!!!! oh well this will do for now.;)

[walterick]

What in the WORLD did you just do?! Hijack an old thread or something?

[adina]

What's your new avatar?


If we all ask her a simple question, she should hit 1000 in this thread.

a small section of the kaleidascope shots I've been taking...

what number is that--LOL

[natatbeach]

I think it's only four more after this one....

[natatbeach]

i'm off to sleep but figured it was only right to let you be the one to ask the final question to make it 1000...

guess we'l have to wait til ltomorrow!

later gator

Need a life ?! lol No, by the looks of your work and being a mom and wife, I would say you have a full life. Anyway, I hope there isn't a software issue here that would bring you back to 000 at 1000.. that would suck. By the way, I did reply to you about the message on the Red boats, but not sure if you got my rresponse because i seemed to have had trouble getting back on here for a while for some reason.

[walterick]

"How much do you love us?!"

Yay! I can't wait to see #1000 (or 0)

I also would like to mirror the other thoughts here that YOU HAVE A GREAT LIFE honey you're a full time momma and the time you spend recreating your photography and inspiring others is time well spent.

If "getting a life" means no longer being Nat the wonderful, attentive thoughtful and caring being that you are, then you'd better stay a dork!

I wouldn't have it any other way

I logged on this morning hoping for #1000!

nat told me yesterday in a pm she's so completely embarrased at all the attention her number of posts has gotten, she decided to reregistered under a new user name and start over...

Yes, it's sad, but I guess we're all to blame...

Of course, it IS possible I'm mistaken. After all, my memory isn't what it once was...

I logged on this morning hoping for #1000!

Steve, are you being serious? I did a bad thing here? Uh-oh, please repost and tell me if you are being serious...

Rick

[gahspidy]

Well, I hope she is not too uncomfortable by the attention. It is only because she is liked so much by evryone here. It does seem to me there is a software issue here and her number won't move beyond 999. By logging on as a different id, she will start again at 001, but we will know it as 1001.

I've only been signing on rcently after lurking for a bit. i have learned a lot for these forums so far and have really enjoyed reading the comaraderie and interactions with different people on here. i think that ya'll stay so connected and keep track of such things---well I just thing that's pretty special.

I know i would be embarassed by all the fuss but I think natatbeach should feel pretty special... who knows maybe some day I will hit 1000

hope to get to know some of you a little better...take care

[natatbeach]

for starters--- here's no. 1,000 BTW it says 1,000 on the profile

on a more serious note... a few people have been concerned that I was upset by Rick's post (specifically Rick and Lara) and although I appreciate the concern--- have no fear my sense of humor was intact and I was joking around...and pulling Rick's leg.another moderator (which shall remain unamed steve ) was in on the joke and I even signed up as a different person so I could still browse the web (BevMa) (so please delete that person PJ if it's possible---

sorry if any of this has created any hassles or worries for anyone. I didn't mean to stress anyone out...or create any work for anyone...

on a brighter note--Rick has been called and his mind has been put at ease--he can die a happy man that I posted on here for the thousandth time and I wanted to say

that foire and brimstone might be the ONLY thing sthat would turn me away or keep me from participating in such a wonderful online community.

Thnaks to everyone for all the help since I joined and I really appreciate what a caring group of people you all are. You go beyond the call of duty (you know who you are) and I really feel like I couldn't have found a better group of people to share my passion, success, and failures. So thnaks and be assured---order has now been restored to the universe....

Thanks Rick...mwa mwa

this little shot is of the road ahead....(while driving)(converted to BW and leveled,cropped,and curved) a play on words---since here's to another 1K

[Asylum Steve]

Why, why, Dorothy, we thought we had LOST YOU...

Congrats on reaching 1000, nat. Personally, much like Y2K, I was tremendously relieved to see the world didn't come to an end when your post odometer rolled around to the big 1K...

[Lara]

"on a more serious note... a few people have been concerned that I was upset by Rick's post (specifically Rick and Lara)"

LOL yeah, so much so that our Natalie got a phone call from me You guys!!!

[natatbeach]

Why, why, Dorothy, we thought we had LOST YOU...

---you think that there's
A place where there isn't any trouble. Do you suppose there is such a place, Toto? There must be. It's not a place you can get to by a boat or a train. It's far, far away. Behind the moon, beyond the rain. a key stroke away at PR.com
