Could it happen in this thread?
Could the celebration for all the time he spends on this website start today?
Could his 50th birthday celebration continue through his 10,000th thread?
Could it be possible he has posted all these times just since May 14, 2004?
Could it be possible he has spent at least 5 hours weekly on the Pond Boss website?
Could his posts be a HUGE part of the reason the Pond Boss website is the most informative, thriving, fertile mine field of pond information on the world wide web?
I ask you....could his 10,000th post be registered HERE in this thread, where all of us could enjoy and publicly celebrate his enlightened wisdom and energetic sense of humor?
Could it?
Stay tuned....we will see.
Only 9 more to the big number.

If you add up all his alias or nom-de plumes he is probably at 15000 right now.

Let the party begin - high expectations for 10000. No pressure Theo. My suggestion a pic of a big BG says it all - no fancy or witty words just the real deal - of course a pic of a small SMB or RES from Gallus II pond would suffice. Here use this pic of a SMB nesting and claim you grew it to that size in under a year with a super secret food source. That should stir things up a bit.

I heard he went Amish because of the stress of this pondboss forum. He just couldn't handle the responsibility of being a 10k poster.

This could be a crazy Sunday night if we know Theocity. He might be burning the bit-maps so to speak.

Freak.

IIRC, FishWife does ALL the outdoor work!

Probably composing a masterpiece for number 10,000 preceded with something like acountdown.

In case Theo does not mark the big post, I hope another great Mod will tag it as number 10K and lock it!

Bob, can you dock his pay if he does, or is it a union thing?

It just occurred to me that we might be on the verge of global chaos and potential anarchy.

What if the Pond Boss post counter can't go to five digits?

What if this is one of those Y2K things? It's possible that once Theo posts the 10,000th post civilization as we know it will collapse.

Communication satellites will fall from the heavens.

The internet will have a massive meltdown.

Telephones will no longer work.

Power plants around the globe will come to a screeching halt.

Human kind shall revert to stone age technology.

What if by posting his 10,000th post, Theo causes the greatest natural disaster in the history of mankind?

Looks like he's being conservative.


It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.
