In a couple hours I'll have missed it by that much. :blink:

I suppose the "close, but no cigar" prize is I get to brew my own beer...

Wait a second. I win no matter what! :banana:

This contest is coming down to the wire now and has been fun to follow, It could be over shortly.
Louie, maybe you could do another one for the 300 mark, I think the growth has slowed some, with most of the MB regulars here, but who knows what might happen with the after Christmas rush we use to have on MB.

I'm not so sure. Wasn't the deal "whoever was closest to the date", not
whoever was closest without going over"?

If so, you still have 6 days to still be the closest to the date. Maybe Louie can confirm that.

There is no justice in the world if that old geezer wins. But, at least we won't have to listen to that bird chirping about how she won, all those big words, blah, blah, blah... :lol:

How crazy would it be if we didn't get our 200th member until next year?! Would be a long time to sit at 199!
