He said the same thing at the 5K mark!  I'm still looking forward to that drink Mike!  LOL!  (kidding ofcourse.)  Thats a heck of a lot of posts...now if we could just see more of your models!!!!!  You just had to know we were going to give you crap, right?!  BTW, are you still having luck with the Tamiya acrylics?  Good to have you on this site and Forum, my friend!  I've learned quiet a bit from your informed opinions and airbrush knowlegde.   



Ditto my friend.
You have been an inspiration to me my friend and I would gladly buy you a beer if we ever meet. Wink [;)]
The Tamiya acrylics are still working out well and I am enjoying using them so far.

Thanks Scott.

Yes I still have my bike and I rode it to work today through the rat race of the San Francisco/Berkeley area.

Congrats, Mike!  Don't know what we'd do without guys like you around.  I for one am grateful for all your help and patience, and freely admit that I'd be lost without it sometimes.

Here's to the next 6k!

My post count keeps going backwards.  I had right at 5k a long time ago and now it's down to well under 4!

PS ... Still got your bike?  Let's go riding sometime ;)

Should mean that you've mentioned at least one Badger product over 6000 times!,don't they send you a prize for stuff like that?

Kinda like the NASCAR commercial where they all try to be seen drinking a coke
