I'll probably live, but something has gotten the best of me. I believe it was some sort of spinach dip I had at a party saturday. It's been awhile since I have been this sick. I actually had a listing appointment at 10:30 yesterday and showed two homes at 2:30. I knew something was wrong on the way home. I even ran a red light to get home. It was a long night and I now look like Uncle Fester and a little wrung out. (That mascara migrated with the all night sweats!)
A lot of Active Rainers have posted a milestone post for hitting a target point or number of posts. I have not hit one yet! I see a post for someone that reads "My 100th Post!" and I check my number. I missed one hundred. I guess I wasn't paying attention. I've seen the 25,000 .... 50,000 .... 100,000 points posts plan to add my post to celebrate, if I remember of course. Keep in mind, I have the CRS designation - which in my case stands for Can't Remember Shitake (mushrooms).
Well about a week ago Colleen Kulikowski sent me an email to welcome me to the 100,000 club. I had to go to my points and check. She's right! I'm almost there! I better pay attention and post something BRILLIANT when I pass the 100,000 mark.
Something Brilliant! There, I said it.
In honor of my 100,000 point milestone I am sharing links to posts that were particularly memborable and made me laugh. With so many new faces around here, it may be more like a time capsule to the Active Rain past.
One of my most favorites was the series of MEMES. I think that was the first time most of you all got to see me topless. Check out: Monster Meme Madness and Meme, Again. Oh, and the Chris "Just Chris" Griffith's Resolution Meme. Any of you with memes http://activerain.com/blogs/tags/meme can post them in the comments if you care to share.
For a good laugh take: Personality Test For REALTORS Someone get Marc Blasi a second sheet of paper.
Like they said on the Titanic, "We don't need no stinkin' lifeboats, we need room to dance!" Then they hit The Tip of The Florida FSBO Iceberg. My favorite part has been following up on this post. What are the odds I show up with my camera the minute in the day that CODE ENFORSEMENT shows up to issue a CITATION! Oh, as of Friday the snowman is STILL on the roof but the banner is down.
In closing I would like to recommend that everyone read a post of someone they do not know and add a comment, flag it if it needs featured, rate it, too. If you don't know what to say in the comments, "Have a nice day" should be sufficient.
HAVE A NICE DAY KIDDIES!
Chris... aka golf cart driver.... not only Congrats on your milestone of 100,000 points, but I enjoyed this... this was very creative and now I am afraid to hit my 100,000.
Last... I loved your challenge to the other members. How creative.... damn girl, you had your thinking cap on this one. Or were you just being yourself. And yes, I enjoyed those meme's also. That was a lot of fun, so here is mine.What's this MEME phenomenon going on in the blogging world? Well, I have been tagged, or in this case, Memed !!!
Again... Chris... CONGRATS... enjoyed reading your blogs....
Congratulations Chris..... You Topless Tease....
Here I expected to see your running picture with your head cut off....
Guess I'm thinking with the wrong brain today... Unusual for ME!
Whooo-hoooo!!!!!
I was wondering whatever happened to the Memes. When I first came here (lurked a bit and left) they were going around like crazy, people hit with them right and left. Then they were gone, poof! Now that I "know" you guys they're much more fun!!
And I have to say that is the COOLEST picture of you skydiving!!!!
LOL Chris you are crazy. I can see why you are so mean on TREOs...
Jumping out of perfectly good airplanes, ouch!
kk
P.S. Congratulations, isn't it nice to be so busy with cool things in life you are focused on a "mere 100,000 points?"
Applause and a trophy....nobody offered me make up remover? LOL
Thanks for stopping by. Thanks for posting that MEME post, too, Jeff. Sarah, I'll be expecting a MEME out of you, now. Colleen, just missed your call - I was on the other line.
Congratulations! I drew a mental picture of what this blog was going to be about when I read the title. Boy, was I wrong. I was expecting a nightmare. Glad it is a happy event!
FIRST... congrats.
Second... HOW IN GOD's name did you do that? I started back in July and I still have to hit 80K... your fingers and eyeballs must FLY over the keys and screen (respectively).
Anyway... when I hit 80k I will be happy!
Point It Forward...

Terrific title, Chris - had no idea of what to expect. Congratulations on your milestone. Love reading your posts. Feel better soon!
Jeff
CONGRATS!!!
I cant imagine reaching 100,000 points. Someday it will happen, but I better look forward to 20,000 first
:-) What a fantastic accomplishment.
Chris...
Well Congratulations my dear. You are very lucky to have been able to write about your own achievement. I know when BB hit 100,000 points someone else stole his thunder. I guess we all need to understand that the achievement belongs to the achiever. In this case that's YOU. I am very happy for you. You don't really jump out of airplanes do you?
TLW...ROAR!
Here it is! She's 5 foot-nuthin' and 99 lbs! My future assistance. This is part of the interview process. WHAT?! How do you people interview assistants!?
Hey Chris - WOW - 100,000 points!!! WAY TO GO!!
I haven't hit 80,000 yet, but I do have a milestone post coming up. I don't have jumping out of the plane pic to put with it though.... I'm certainly not going to do 'topless'. ;-)
Congrats! That is a big mountain to climb!
James
Congratulations Chris. That's a lot of posting and a lot of dedication.

Wow - 100k? That's super duper! Congrats to you on your milestone. They are truly fun to get to and so nice to share with the others here on the Rain. Thanks for sharing yours!
wow! Congratulations on 100,000 points.
Great reading on those recommended posts, I see you left your mark on those! Very much appreciated.
And even more glad to know you are feeling better!
Thanks :-)
Chris, Congratulations on your accomplishment! Hope you're feeling better, Uncle Fester.....don't think on a BAD day you could look quite like him!LOL!
I had to follow the MEMES link to your other posts, .....the toe did concern me (it's a mom thing). Thanks for posting the picture to show they were all there.
WOW Centurian points on AR. What an accomplishment!
Question: Why would anyone jump out of a perfectly working airplane??
Congratulations and we look forward to your next milestone!
Chris,
Good job on collecting all those points. With all the reading and commenting you do on here the points are well deserved.
Rita
