Come on Tara!

Wonder how many people will reach 1,000 this week.
Maybe it will be a week for the records.

Damn I'm psychic

For she's a jolly a good fellow, which nobody can deny

WOW! first Valter, now Tara -- within a few days of each other!

This is like when Mark McGuire and Sammy Sosa broke the single season HR mark in the same season!

Congrats, Tara!

So is "Flowing Fount of Yak Knowledge" the new title for ones over 1000 now? I thought we get custom titles and not Page47's title

.

[EDIT]
I had customer instead of custom, what a dork! I sometimes ask non-IT people for the documentation instead of saying paperwork. I hate it when that happens.

There is a default title for posters when they hit 1000. For example, when I hit 1000, the default at the time was "Yak Post Master General". Then custom titles were awarded when an appropriate name came to the minds of the moderators, or if you have one in particular that you'd like, submit your request.

With as fast as some people are hitting 1000 these days, I wouldn't be surprised to see SQL Tornado show up for someone.

Wow! Congratulations! It looks like we've got a couple of custom titles to hand out. And we'll need something new for 1,000 posts title.

Amid all this cheer,
Please recharge your beer,
Then raise your glass my friend...
I propose a toast,
To one little post,
That knocked Bigelow out of "The Ten"

Congrats, Tara!!

A custom title suggestion: How about Glass Ceiling Smasher?

Or maybe SQL Princess Warrior?

Tara, you're an inspiration to women in IT. Woohoo!

My next goal (which probably will never happen, unless Tara decides she's had enough of SQL and she wants to sell ice cream instead) is to beat Tara as the woman with the highest post count... Unless one of you other guys on the first page is masquerading as a man...

Have a great one!

YOU KICK ASS TARA!

Let's see:

Yak Mistress Extraordinaire
Go! Go! Go! Yakette

Damn, it's even more difficult to incorporate the word "Yak" and come up with esteemed titles for women. Use Sarah's suggestions instead.
