A Thousand Posts On Transabled.org Coming Up Soon
Written by Sean on Monday, June 8, 2009
Seems to me that 1,000 posts is a bit of an achievement. And we’re not far off from having reached that. At the time I write this post, there are 920 published posts on the site. In less than three months, we’ll have reached a thousand posts. What are we going to do to celebrate this?
I will have, of course, to thank each and everyone of you. Without you, I couldn’t have done it. Without people reading what is posted and coming back, the site wouldn’t have lasted so long. Without people engaging and participating in comments, the site would not be so vibrant. And without the other people who write (regularly or not), there is no way the site could have sustained the one post per day it has been sustaining for a long time now. So thank you all, without you, the site wouldn’t be much at all.
I would like to have a wee bit of a celebration. But I’m not sure what to do. It’s not like we have huge sponsors and we can offer a laptop, or a wheelchair, for a draw or a contest, is it?
A part of me thinks that the best celebration would be for one of us to be able to report they have finally managed to become paralysed and they are happy. I can’t help being selfish and thinking I’d be an ideal candidate, but frankly, any of us getting there would be, for me, a major joy and success.
But short of that, I open the question to you guys and gals (and whomever fits in-between!):
What shall we do to celebrate one thousand posts?

I agree :D:D:D
Well, if we’re all saving up for surgery, I think we should save a little extra for an annual get together. If you decide that Montreal would be the ideal venue, I will pay the Molson Dry and the Boreale Rousse! (local beverages).
I propose a country with a surgeon willing to operate us all there. He could make a fortune !
Wow, wouldn’t that be an awesome post-op happy hospital party if we could all get surgery!

Now, I hate to be a party pooper, but… I meant… What shall we do that we can actually realistically do? LOL. Yeah, I’d like to have a get-together, or have surgery, and all that stuff. But that’s not particularly realistic, is it?
So, lemme ask you again, what should we do, that is *realistic*? Or should we just forget it and keep going without marking the event?

what about an online party over skype or something?

@Sophie, I guess that’s a possibility, but I was hoping for something related to the site. An online party always poses the problem of language & timezone :(

Hmmmm.
Since you ask, I suggest: impairments for all!!! :D
Feeling a wee bit badly about not writing or commenting much lately, I’ll be sure to work and remedy that in case there is a rich sugar daddy here that wants to treat us all to surgery :)
