SamBlob is going for 2000 and it seems most likely that Dylan0513 will reach 1000 posts before Paige does (given the way he's going, although Paige's first days were almost like 800 posts in 15 days), or maybe Paige or Mewberries151 could reach it.
Congratulations! *breaks out the champagne* I'm very honored you spent it on this thread. *raises glass* Here's to our wonderful Rodri! May his life be full of love, happiness, health and prosperity! *slugs back entire glass of champagne* *burps* oops! 'scuse me.

No, but I'll try to get a hold of a copy. Who was in it?

It's sad, and I might gonna sound like an idiot, but sometimes these children can get annoying (begging you for money and trying to sell candies) and sometimes turn into delinquents.
I totally understand what you mean about how annoying it can be. At the same time, what else can they do? Go off and die politely in a quiet corner? The will to live is very powerful.

I wouldn't put it past him.

Now that would be quite an accomplishment!

Yeah, Spanish were mass murderers, and very good at it. With the pretext of evangelization, they go conquer and slaughter and invade countries. It would be interesting to figure out how USA would be nowadays if Spain would had hit on them centuries ago.
Well, for one thing, I'd be writing this in Spanish...

Yes indeed, the big ones, little ones, unknown ones, front page ones... and all for religious, political, hisorical, economical , emotional or just plain dumb reasons.
