                        Ok everyone the suspense is over .... the border has been crossed.

                        And as Merlin said earlier .... yes indeed I was cooking up something.

                        A shared post with renarts that for you non-armour types you may not want to miss. So here's the link .... check it out and I hope you all enjoy.

                        Shermy must be cooking up something BIG. He sure is stringing out that 1999th for a long time...

                        The suspense is more than I can bear.

                        And I'm NOT the one who told...HE's lying!!!Evil [}:)]

                        The mental picture of Shermie, ridding a pink bathtub down onto Disney after being dropped out of a B52 al la Slim Pickens in Dr. Strangelove. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.........

                        It has its merits. Do Canadians have a version of "YEEEEEE HAWWWWWW"?

                        Hmmmm ...... stolen B-52's and Mickey Mouse .... maybe it does get better.

                        With my luck though, I'd get dropped in the swamp next to Renarts house.

                        And just so everyone knows who the loudmouth was ....... it was Merlin himself ..... sent me an e-mail, just couldn't stay quiet.

                        I think they'll ban him for incessant spammingEvil [}:)]...
                        LOL, j/k, shermie!
                        They'll probably make him a mod or admin, that or say "congrats" and keep on truckin'!

                        For his 2000th, though, I say we give him a fly-over of Central Florida in that B-52D that's parked right near the Orlando International Airport! For the grand finale`, we'll open the bomb-bay up, and let him parachute out over Disney World!!
                        Whaddya think, Shermie? Ya wanna go flying over Florida in a stolen B-52?!

                        I wonder if Shermie will get a new star or a color change? Perhaps he will get a promotion of some kind? Any ideas?

                        Let's see ..... so far I'm getting a 1:1 Sherman, a King Tiger, an L-60 in Sherman clothing, a 1/16 R/C Sherman, and a ride around central Alberta in a stolen Leopard.

                        All this for just having the fastest fingers (biggest mouth) on FSM.

                        It just doesn't get any better than this.

                        I second Keyworth's great idea. Unfortunately, you'll have to get the money from my wife, she pilferred my wallet.

                        Maybe we can all chip in and get him the L60, then put cardboard around it to make it look like a Sherman? He'd never know the difference.

                        I think we should buy Shermanfreak a Tamiya 1/16 RC Sherman.

                        Maybe I'll just hotwire a Leopard from CFB Edmonton and take it on a joy ride.

                        What a coincidence, it ran flat out of gas on what appears suspiciously like an Alberta armor modeller's lawn.

                        I think there's a fellow here somewhere in Alberta with a Chieftain tank in running condition that he bought when the British Army retired them, hmmmm..... ;-)
