Here's my shabby "remarkable" number. This is post #30. Yeah, 30--for the second time, after the system lost my original 35 posts in a mixup.

What's special about 30? That means my +repping actually means a tiny something again (other than a just a pat on the back).

This becomes post number... 1437!

I must be terribly dense; but what is the remarkable significance of 1437?

Anyway, this question does allow me to go on to the next post...

300! Woot!

I'm ever so close to 1000 and I keep thinking about it but I know when I pass 1000 I'm going to forget.

My experience of that is that those two were done differently. One was short , subdued, restrained, and ennumerated the poster's actual post count, and the other was loud, obviously aware of potential for neg-rep (by asking not to get any of it), arguably obnoxious, and wasn't at all related to the poster's actual post count. And it immediately followed a post (from the same poster) asking an admin to delete one of their posts so they could have a palindrome post count.

Hey guys I'm a bit of a history geek. So This is my 1051th post and I am putting down a bit of history for everyone's enjoyment. Sorry Revdyer. I tried to find something of significance relating to religion, but all I got was the death of one archbishop which is not very uplifting, oh and something about the Eastern orthodox church, but enjoy anyway!

(The history geek bit is me looking up some history to share )

Events

* Godwin, Earl of Wessex, is exiled from England by King Edward the Confessor for refusing to take action against the townspeople of Dover. He returns the following year.
* Hilarion of Kiev becomes the first native metropolitan of the Eastern Orthodox Church in Kievan Rus.
* May 19 – Henry I of France marries Anne of Kiev at the cathedral of Reims.
* William of Normandy fights for his life and crown in Normandy.

Births

* Edgar Atheling, uncrowned King of England, 1066, after the Battle of Hastings
* Mi Fu, Chinese poet, painter, and calligrapher (d. 1107)

Deaths

* January 22 – Aelfric Puttoc, archbishop of York
* Bi Sheng, Song Dynasty Chinese inventor of movable type printing

Some day you'll have kids and understand. The first time it's new and cute. The second time it's derivative and annoying.

1st: "Ha! Johnny put Mimring in his nose"
any other time: "STOP or we're playing Candyland"
