Thank you, thank you, thank you, Strumelia! You know I was hoping one of your tasty JELL-O creations would be part of the prize package. And this is even better-- I don't even have to win to get a spoonful of, uh, the thing. On second thought, it's toooo pretty to eat. (I think this is my first posting using the peace sign smiley.)

I've been hand counting the members, since the main page count is not entirely accurate.Only one more member to go to reach 1000.Meanwhile, here's one of my 'famous' Jello Molds to enjoy as an appetizer:

Hey Bobby, I think that I was wearing my pink pyjama's when I read that we had reached the 1000 mark! (send you a picture if you like...............!)John Bobby Ratliff said:

Who ever is counting certainly had me fooled ealier !!! LOLJohn

I just hand counted all the members. We have 997 at this point in time.Somehow the 'show all' button on the members column is not accurate right now. Could have been because of the spammer issue this morning.Anyway, counting our latest members Ann and Bonnie, we now have 997.Three more to go after Bonnie!

I thought i was better looking than i was a year ago.

I've noticed that we all do seem better looking than we did a year ago when we first joined.

How true, how true Robin... I agree 1000% Robin Thompson said:

Visitors, if you've not yet joined FOTMD, you're missing out! Join FOTMD! When you do, you'll immediately become better-looking, have whiter teeth, become ambidextrous, and gain hundreds of friends. Well, only one of these things is true but it's the best thing on the list! :-)

Well only a few more members to go before we reach a THOUSAND members of Friends of the Mountain Dulcimer! Yikes! Who would ever have thought when we only had a couple dozen members one year ago?

If you haven't entered yet, be sure to post your lucky number guess in FOTMD first contest in celebration of reaching 1000 members...
enter the Guess the Pickled Dulcimers in the Jar Contest!
Look for it on the MAIN page. There will be not one but FIVE winners who will receive PRIZES in the mail, so your chances are good! The 5 winners will be announced when FOTMD reaches 1000 members...should be only a few days away!
