The 400k post...
As of now, the official count* is 397,384. Errr, 397,385 with this post. Anyway...

Who will get the coveted 400K crown?
What do they recieve as a prize?
Will I still be marking time with the 1 millionth post?

So many questions, so little time.

* Ignoring the test / deleted / rubbish posts.

Ignoring all the rubbish posts, we should get to 400000 posts around the year 2525 I reckon. So you're jumping the gun a bit here, DJ.

Here's hoping it happens today. It would be good to have something positive to celebrate on this day in future years.

Re: The 400k post...
Indeed DS: I'm being facetious as you well know.

It's Catalonia Day today, and William Wallace won the Battle of Stirling Bridge, so there are more than enough reasons to party on already.

I'll be having haggis followed by crema catalana for dinner tonight

Hardly. I'm Scottish and know my history fairly well, and I have a liking for Catalan culture. Anyway, checking Wikipedia now, I found out lots more to celebrate. Happy birthday to Brian de Palma, Franz Beckenbaur, Moby, and Harry Connick Junior. So there's my movies, sports and music settled for today too.

I won't mention the other event of note today. Well, OK - personally, I don't find Johnny Vegas funny, but happy birthday to him too.

Whilst listening to the Beatle's first single, Love Me Do, which was recorded on this date in 1962.

Ew, no. One of my least favourite Beatles songs - sounds more like a George Formby 78, being played at 45.

I'll stick to my Moby and Harry Connick Jr, and - missed this one earlier - close with some of Arvo Part's beautiful minimalism.
