    Countdown to Bad Post-Doc

    Feel free to encourage me while I pad my post count enroute to the magic 5001 mark.

    BPD - 1000!

    Is 5001 a post-doc? Where is PI or tenured faculty?

    Go ToSeek!

    I believe it is your fate to be here. It is your destiny. I believe these posts hold for each and everyone of you (in case your schizophrenic) the very meaning of your lives.

    I too am approaching a countdown. I'm just over a hundred from crossing the kilopi threshold.

    That's a lot of responses in the first ten minutes!

    Yeah, Glom, I see you moving on up there. I thought TSC was going to be the second to break the kilopi barrier, but he doesn't seem to be upholding the honor of Canada.

    So will the first non-American to break the barrier be a Brit or a Canadian?

    You've slacked off since you became Humphrey. Must be the turtle effect.

    You may be engaged to your fiancee, but you're married to the board.

    Okay, just as long as you don't mind me using this to pad my post count to 1000.

    I'll have you know I've been contributing well to the intellect of the board in recent days. I resent implications I got to kilopi by fluffing.

    I just feel sorry for any new posters joining the Board. They're going to see that I'm a Bad PhD and assume that I know what I'm talking about. :wink:

    You don't. You're going to be a Bad Master. It will take much longer for you to become a Bad PhD.

    Looking at the activity tonight in this particular forum, I'd say we're all in a kind of fluffy mood. Everyone scatter to the more intellectual fora before BA sees us and gets angry.
