Aw. No one noticed Neil passing the One Million Word mark. But I think we can do a retro-party.
*passes out red balloons to everyone* *unveils the Pie Table, in which slices of every sort of imaginable pie are arranged. (Not the entire pie, mind you, just a few slices. An entire pie of every sort imaginable would just be silly)* *hangs up a banner that proclaims "HUZZAH! PIE!" in large letters* *waits for others to arrive* *while waiting, counts to one million, fourteen thousand, two hundred sixty one* edit : *not while holding my breath, though* _____________________________________________________________ Don't you realize? The next time you see sky, it'll be over another town. The next time you take a test, it'll be in some other school. Our parents, they want the best of stuff for us. But right now, they got to do what's right for them. Because it's their time. Their time! Up there! Down here, it's our time. It's our time down here. That's all over the second we ride up Troy's bucket. - Goonies |

w00t!
The first thing that drew me to this board was reading the blog, and I got Adventures in the Dreamscape as much for the blog reprint as the rest of the material. (breaking my own rule about not letting people pretend they can talk to Neil in any way directly here) Thanks for a million words, Neil. Thanks mostly for all the other ones, too, because you take such great care to put them all in just the right order. Here's to many millions more. __________ AJGraeme "You see, I have a policy about honesty and ass-kicking: if you ask for it, I have to let you have it." -Taylor Mali "Science is the foot that kicks magic square in the nuts." -Scratch Fury |

But wait, it's not too late. ^_^
According to the latest stats (which include the earlier American Gods blog but strip all quoted stuffs) he's up to just a bit over 940k words, so we've still got nearly 60k words to go until the million-word party! |
