Yep, RevNeal can hardly be considered a man of "few words" (except on rare occasion), and I, for one, am glad! ;)

Happy 5000+, and many, many more.... :D

Congrats, Greg!

I have also benefitted from your wisdom. Thanks for sharing your cruising experiences with us in such an eloquent manner.

And thanks also for your sense of humor, which comes in handy many, many times.

Congratulations Greg,

Thank you for sharing your wisdom, humor and wealth of knowledge with us. You are a treasure. It has been a pleasure chatting with you in cyberspace. I hope that someday we will meet in real space, hopefully onboard a Dam ship.

Fondly,

Linda:)

Hey Greg - Congrats on reaching #5,000 - as many of you know most of my posts totally lack any wisdom and many make no sense at all.:eek::D:D

Even adding in the 1200 posts I lost in the board wipe, I don't think this Introvert will ever get there!

Cheers,

Yes, indeed, I look forward to it ... as well as to meeting many more on many dam ships and many wonderful HAL cruises. :D

It WAS A pleasure meeting and getting to chat with you and all of those who could make it to the dinner. I had a great time! Looking forward to October and the Zaandam!!!!!!

[RevNeal]

Do you have to wear a tie on formal night?

If I wear a Tuxedo, yes.
If I wear a black suit and clerical collar, no.
:D
Clerics are "always" formal. :D

[mim100]

Congratulations, RevNeal...you definitely have a way with words....sometimes you're so diplomatic and find the right thing to say nicely...and other times it's Wham ! no mincing words at all..... cut straight to the chase....thanks for your experience, wisdom and humour :D

[obriendan]

Congratulations, Greg. I've always enjoyed your very useful posts. Of course, it is well known that many wise men come from Texas!:D

[jhannah]

Keep pluggin', Greg. Your posts are always thoughtful, timely, and chocked full of info.

[RevNeal]

Thanks, Jim.
Everyone at the Las Vegas get-together said that you and I REALLY need to meet. :) I look forward to that, on some dam ship some day. :D

[RuthC]

Thank you for all the contributions of information and humor in the first 5,000 posts. May the next 5,000 be even better!

(Ruth types furiously to catch up:rolleyes: )

[RustaRoo]

Congratulations, Greg. You've inspired and informed me. Thank you! I've got the countdown going for our Hawaii trip:D

Congratulations Rev. Greg Neal. Where do you get all the time to post? I must admit that your posts are always a delight to read.

I will never catch up with you on the posting.

Congrats Greg,

I've enjoyed your posts so much. I particularly appreciate your photography of those beautiful dam ships! :)
Your insight and vast array of information has been helpful to many of us.

[kakalina]

Congrats Greg. It was nice meeting and chatting with you in San Diego. I always look for your posts to see what's going on with HAL and CC.

[Sunshine91]

Way to go Greg! You've "hit" quite a milestone - 5,000! Even the hittingest player in baseball didn't hit that many - only 4,256 (Pete Rose).

Keep 'em coming. :)

[dakrewser]

Wow! The big FIVE-OH ... oh...oh :rolleyes:

You look very well preserved....

must be the salt air :rolleyes:

[Bucky3]

Congrats, and thanks for all the great information you provide. Hope to meet you some day - still contemplating that 10/07 cruise! Look forward to your future posts. Bucky

[Vic The Parrot]

Congrats!


A pretty neat milestone, I must say.
Sorta like what Dave said, hitting the big '5-OH'

(next year, right?? ....)

-ducking-

UGH!
Oh, well ... so long as an organ donation collector doesn't come around. ;)

[dakrewser]

Do you need donations for your church organ????

:rolleyes:

[RevNeal]

Do you need donations for your church organ????

Wrong kind of organ.

Think:

2. Biology a part of an organism that is typically self-contained and has a specific vital function, such as the heart or liver in humans.

It's a joke for those who watch and love Monty Python.

[Joanandjoe]

Congratulations, Greg. We've enjoyed your wisdom, your humor, and your pictures--and everything else about your posts.

5,000 is even more impressive when one realizes that it probably doesn't count posts before the board was recreated two or three years ago. We lost several hundred posts in the changeover (otherwise we'd be around 1,200 instead of in the 800s), and you probably lost even more.

[RevNeal]

I lost roughly 1800 in the post-count when the board conversion occurred. I used to remember what it was, exactly, but I can't anymore. Besides, it's essentially an unimportant figure.

[K&RCurt]

UGH!
Oh, well ... so long as an organ donation collector doesn't come around. ;)

Ok...Right...And you are Rev. Neal? Good, well then, we're here for your liver.

Congratulations Revneal. Keep posting you wisdom and humor for all of us to enjoy!

[HeatherInFlorida]

Thank you Brian. :) Yes ... I know ... I talk too much. :D

:D ... don't we all, Greg, don't we all. But talking to much isn't a bad thing unless you have nothing to say;) .

Such is not the case for you ... Congratulatons for all you lend this board. You are much appreciated here by 99.999% of CC posters;) .

[stanford's girl]

Congratulations RevNeal!!! :cool: I always love reading your posts and appreciate your wit.

Shall we do a little skeet shooting to celebrate?? ;) ;) :D

[SDHALFAN]

Congratulations Greg. I always enjoy your posts and I marvel at how you are able to chastise someone in such a gentle way that they couldn't possibly take offense. I need to learn how to do that.:D
