Next Knight?

Just noticed that Lynn is just 500 posts away from Knighthood.  And GerdW is almost 1k away.  Let the race begin!

It reminds me of this race couple of years before.

If you want to make it worse, Jeff and I have been talking.  There is a potential of 5 new Knights of NI in the next 8-12 months: johnsold, GerdW, crossrulz, Jeff·Þ·Bohrer, and muks.

Tim,

 

You got that right. Things always get worse when you and Jeff are talking.  When you guys get close I am going to hide for a month or so.  That race will be fun to watch.

 

Hornless.Rhino,

 

Fortunately for your prognostication, you did not specify the year.

Ahh... Lynn's got us all beat!  He's "Retired" and could have a heart-attack tomorrow and still slip over the line way ahead of "the pack" (Try to hear that with my-tounge-in-cheek- cheekiness that you have come to know)

 

When I zipped passed muks to claim the #10 spot all time (we DO NOT count NI_Branch_Support) I knew it would be temporary because Tim was gaining fast.  I'll Gladly relinquish the slot if he doesn't get side-tracked struggling with inheritance issues.  With muks back in the hunt - (After struggling with inheritance issues according to a cryptic statement I read somewhere)  I may need to pass Saverio AND Ben to get back into the top 10.  The whole darned thing gets way too close to call after Lynn.

 

I have a nice spot in my front yard that could use an shrubbery next spring so, I'll stay in the race.  Best of luck to the rest of you as well!
