50 posts more to 1000 posts

This post, according to wordpress, is #952.  I have about 50 more to go to hit the 1000 mark.

Since my posts tend towards new material, rather than just a link and a sentence, this is a shitload of words.

I'm grateful to all the folks who subscribe, read, forward, comment and even snark here, as this blog has been a critical part of my successful independent life so far.

I'd like to do something fun here when I hit post #1000.  Open to suggestions – leave 'em in the comments. Thanks.
