    Wow... I must say it's much early than what I initially had in mind, after nearly a month of crazy YoYao pic posting & exchanged enough garbage with you guys... I finally reached 400 posts & the so called "Senior Member" status!!!

    Even though it's nothing comparing to some of you guys' milestones of 3000's or 7000's... I'm still very happy with this achievement & would like to take this opportunity to share with you all my experience here on the BBS.

    In retrospective, I must say I have a wonderful time posting here, exchanging ideas and sharing laughs with you guys. I was a little surprised that most of the posters here are all nice, caring & "normal" people instead of some interent freaks. I remember I started my first thread about "all-star posters" shortly after I registed & received a lot of warm, possitive comments & genuine advices on how to be a good poster here on the BBS (gee, feel like its not long ago was it?). Well, honestly I don't think I satisfied all the criteria of being a good poster but I must say that it's a real pleasure contributing something others will enjoy:). In this case, special thanks to YoYao for being such a good sport & let us posting his pictures for our own pleasure! There is no doubt in my mind that he is the No.1 celebrity here on the BBS. So major props to you YoYao, we still have plenty of unfinished business & you better start getting ready for it :D. Also special thanks to those picture posting buddies such as OmegaSupreme (I'm deeply touched by this guy, special thaks for offering genuine advices regarding my personal situation!), AntiSonic (one of the best in posting YoYao pics!), Mr. Mooch & Rockets2k (I'm flattered by their willingness to learn the Image Ready program, it feels so good to have you two joining the animated gif posting!), Mack, moestavern19, rockHEAD, fadeaway, Iron McFist, The Real Shady, Severe Rockets Fan & others contributed to pic posting (you all doing a wonderful job!). Without you guys this whole pic posting thing won't be as interesting as it seems. Again many thanks & keep up the good work guys!

    I also have to mention other great posters I enjoyed very much such as Behad, Manny, codell, heypartner & SmeggySmeg (they've shown real class as dedicated Rocket fans and proved to be great posters), Macbeth (I just love this guy, his attitude, sense of humor, posting style... oh & his women too;) ), RIET (with his short but entertaining posts), Tim (from whom I might receive a new Rockets hat as prize!), Rocketman95 (I love his easy going personality & I enjoy making fun of him!), Kam (for saying I'm the 2nd greatest poster of all time!:D) & of course thanks to many others that offered genuine advices regarding my situation such as JuanValdez, MadMax, coma, Mulder, ima_drummer2k, Rokkit, Drewdog, junglerules, Princess, Rocket River, Jared Novak, bamaslammer, PhiSlammaJamma, Gene peterson, Baqui99, B-Bob, TedRuxpin, reallyBaked, super_mario, don grahamleone, pgabriel, drapg, GiGGieStuFF, speedball, Oski2005, a la rockets, LeGrouper, Sir Jackie Chiles, Tonaaayyyyy, across110thstreet, underoverup, Uprising ... & I know I forgot somebody! Just to let you know I appreciated all your suggestions & comments very much!

    Even though at this stage I don't have much interaction with Clutch & our moderators here, I would also like to thank them for doing a wonderful job maintaining this BBS for us to enjoy... Clutch ( the guy who created the whole thing, the godfather of all !), Dr of Dunk (I love his take on things & especially his thread locking style!), Jeff (I love his dedication as a Rockets fan & his fair attitude!), Rocketeer (I consider him a staff, creating great wallpapers for our new logo!)... & also thanks to other clutch crew that I'm not yet familiar with...

    Overall, thank you all everyone! Even though life will start to get much busier for me at work & I might not be able to spend a lot of time here as I used to be, but you bet I'll be still around for sure & I look forward to continue sharing my time here with you guys for as long as I shall live ( I honestly hoped so) ;) You guys are the best!

    emm.... ok, so where is my prize for the speech? :p :D

    I'm with you on that one buddy. I just got to the 400+ post plateau as well. This is definitely the best NBA board around. And believe it or not, even through my libertarian rants in D & D, I love all the discussions I've had with those folks. It's been a lot of fun.

    Thanks, man! I think this is a testament of my rebirth on the BBS. I'm extremely happy that a relative newbie would consider me as easy going. That's exactly what I want.

    I'm pretty sure that started my transformation. I had a setback the other day with DaDakota, but it was just that.

    Some thread in D&D. He'd made one too many jokes about my therapy or my being single.

    Is being single bad? I think being married or having a girlfriend is for wimps, guys who couldn't cut it anymore on the nightscene, or who got their girl knocked up. Or for those wierd people who believe in love and that stuff.

    Please post like a "Frenchy". I'm not sure what it would be like, but it sounds really funny. :D
