    that would mean I have spent 63.000 euros..... I 'm going to spend only a few cents a piece now.

    Oops another posting thanks to you , that will cost me another penny (swapped for a helmet at least of course) .

    Thanks for all the good words lads.

    You and Carl must spend a lot of money on keyboards. The salesman at the computer supply store must be happy to see you walk in. Congrats, and what do you do to combat carpal tunnel?

    1) first I have a company of Britishs Pows working for me as slave laborers and typing my texts
    2) My Reichsminister has confiscated thousands of keyboards in museums of occupied countries
    3) I have discovered the carpal tunnel and shot those who caused it at reprisal , even after the put their thumbs up
    4) The saleman was shot as a hostage too.
    3) Money is war reparation.
    5) Propaganda will tell you killed "Jeez"
    6)"21.000" is propaganda too, our troops are already beyond that line.
    7) This forum will last 1000 years.
    8)This message will be destroyed after you read it
    9)Anything that resembles anything is pure coincidence.

    Congratulations. A milestone. I don't know which milestone because I don't know how many posts equal a mile, but I have no doubt it is an impressive milestone.

    On second thought, I guess we should be congratulating ourselves on receiving 21,000 bits of wisdom, as I am sure all 21,000 were full of wisdom. Or something.

    Is there truly a "Skipper?" or is that urgh's pseudonym when he wants to disguise himself as a Dutch-French spy ? OR, is urgh merely one of those English POW's who typed for Skipper ?

    Regardless, Congratulations , Skipper !!!

    Urgh as a slave labourer is the answer. The trouble is that he always stops at 4pm to drink his tea.

    After many finger calculations: if Skippers posts were placed end to end, they would go to the moon and back... No need to check my math, it's impeccable...Good work man.
