Why the heck not? It's just one post, and now it's done. I've entered SimHQ history, with my 40,000th post, herein written.

Not to mention, it comes upon the nigh of a New Year! What timing I have. I can hear the loud bangs of the fireworks outside celebrating my post-victory.

So join me, ladies and germs, and have a tipsy of the bubbly, in honor of SimHQ, and of course, me!

20mm, are you pondering what I'm pondering?

Welcome back friend! You're just in time to open the inaccurately named "Semmern's last Word" thread.

I had no bubbly. But some 15 year old rum my brother thoughtfully (cause I don't drink whisky) gave me for christmas.

To another 40k posts!
May they make at least half as much sense as the first round!

LOL @ wheelsup's pic. So, you don't want any record of having been to SimHQ on your PC, hmmm?

InPrivate browsing FTW!!! biggrin


As for 20mm's count, he would've come in a distant 3rd if the DoD hadn't blocked me for several years!
