Congrats on hitting the all important 2nd star. 




Got any Death Star emoticons?  That would seem appropriate.

Congrats Bahku. Only 1 year, 2 months, 16 days, and 5 hours left before, at the pace you're going, you pass Roy for most stars. And you're not even a mod.

I forgot.  Your choice in villains









or for the Celtics die hard










p.s. I don't think Kobe is on the same level as Hitler. 

No comment as to which one is worse, though.

(j/k, folks)

RH gets me every time with his Kobe, um, 'sentiments.'

Congrats Bahku!  Keep on truckin'!

I'm honored, Steve ... thank you! My favorite author, my mentor extraordinaire of the written word, and Jedi Master of "der schreibtisch"! (Danke sehr, meine Freund ... es ist ausgezeichnet!)

Apparently, it's I who should be thanking you, Bahku, for the well-beyond-kind words.  I'm flattered that you think so highly of my writing, but know that it is the interaction and discussion generated by you and the rest of the community here at CB that give my work whatever small modicum of value it has.  Always a pleasure to chat...and looking forward to congratulating you on your 3K not so far from now...

-sw

Granted, Bahku, I guess it's worth noting that I was able to stick with you up through "Jedi Master" and then lost you once you left the realm of the English-speaking.  So if the -- German, I presume?  I'd really hate to be too ignorant on this one -- non-English words mean something to the effect of "Just kidding about that other nonsense, SW is a thick-headed jerk, and I'm embarrassed that he tainted my second star by acknowledging it"...all bets are off.  That said, I'm willing to take my chances guessing that my guess isn't quite the exact translation.  But one never likes to assume  ;)

-sw

Sorry, Steve ... was just trying to be a little creative, and looking back at it, it seems a bit like "elitist snobbery" or something ... really hadn't intended that, and I once again put my fingers (faux-mouth) in gear before my cerebral contents ... really do apologize. Direct meaning: (S.W.) Jedi Master of the pen. Thank you much, my friend ... it is excellent!

No snobbery taken, Bahku, none at all I can assure you -- I was just messing with ya, and I appreciate the lesson in linguistics  ;D  Thanks again for your flattering comments.

Thanks for the kind words, ACF, but somehow I don't think the intended sentiment was that nice, or benign. TP for your kindness, though.

Bahku, I don't necessarily get the joke, but I'd be really surprised if the intent was anything derogatory towards you. 
Yup

Not at all ... my misunderstanding. Many thanks to all who were so gracious ... TP's for everyone!!

Congrats dark_lord_rises_again for post #2000.

Congrats, darklord!  Um...  your two stars remind me of the twin suns of Tatooine.  Or something like that.
