Not sure if anyone is aware, but TUG is less than 800 posts away from 2 million messages over its life. That seems like a pretty major milestone to me.

Brian--what does the poster of the 2 millionth comment win? A year's membership? The most recent timeshare posted in the Bargain Bin? :D

Just curious....

Reminds me of the old joke which goes something like “First place gets one free timeshare. Second place gets two free timeshares.”

Amy, I'm not a math wizard, but if the stats I'm seeing are correct, it's a lot more than 800 posts to reach two million. Am I missing something? As I see it, we are 800-ish posts away from 1,991,000. Another nine thousand posts after that to reach 2 million.

The person who posts the 2 millionth comment gets to eat my gluten-free, low fat, no sugar added cheesecake bites and can only be claimed in person at my place. Transportation and accommodation not included. :D

PS. I have never baked cheesecake before and just started 2 days ago. I just love the end result and everyone is raving over the mini-muffin size cheesecakes that I am churning out.

I was holding out for the famous TUG boiled pizza recipe. Or maybe TUGBrian will just throw a Boiled Pizza Party!

On a computer screen (not a smart phone), it's on the main page of the Discussion Forums, on the right side, under your avatar.

Oh, that explains it. The only time I see that screen is when my computer first fires up. Then I tap 'Recent Posts' and we're off to the races.

It’s going to be me. Just give me the boiled pizza recipe prize now and avoid the Arbor Day Rush.

There are so many people I’d like to thank that made this possible . . .

LOL. I lived in Edmonton for awhile (Go Golden Bears!) when I attended university there. I had a Ford Tempo slightly older than me, that I had to park outside. Every once in awhile if it was really cold I'd go to the casino near where I lived. It had heated underground parking and was open all night. I could park my car there and have some cheap food, and then take the bus back. My car wouldn't start if it got below -30 C over night, and I could come pick it up in the morning.

Edmonton in February isn't much of a vacation, imo.

How about the opportunity to purchase a timeshare for $1.00 at the Market Place.
We could donate 100 pennies to the winner to purchase his/her timeshare.:whooopie::clap::banana::banana::banana:

This thread is a hoot! Where can I find the recipe for boiled pizza?

Also, we are now at 2,025,096 posts. Whoever thinks they made the 2 millionth post, please go select a random timeshare from the Bargain Board, so you can claim your prize! Whoever made the 2,000,001th post, select *two* $1 timeshares!

My husband went to college in Michigan's Keewanaw Peninsula, which juts out into Lake Superior. In the winter, he had to take his car battery into his house at night so it wouldn't freeze. All of his housemates did the same, so there was a row of car batteries in the house's hallway.

Ah, a Tech grad. I'm a NMU grad (class of '97). Loved my time in the UP. We just finished with one of the coldest spells Metro Detroit has seen in decades. Still nothing compared to a UP cold spell. -80 windchill was the lowest I saw. There were two weeks straight where the actual temperature never got above 0 degrees F. McDonalds was running a special, buy 1 quarter pounder w/cheese and get a 2nd at the previous days high. We were going through the drive thru ordering our 2 quart pounders and asking for what ever was the previous days high was.

I thought I read somewhere that it's always included in new dishwasher instruction manuals. I never read instruction manuals so I can't verify you'll find it there.
