I noticed I was getting close to this a week or so ago and I can honestly say I am very pleasantly surprised – I would never have thought I would still be going 3 years later. Yes that is almost an average of 100 posts a year – who would have thought I would have so much to say. Let alone anyone caring enough to read it.
So I just wanted to say thank you to everyone who has encouraged me along the way, and continues to encourage me. In particular I want to say thanks Dave Leedy (as always), without whom I don’t think I would have been able to get going as quickly.
I am blessed (well metaphorically anyway) to have met so many people and had such opportunities open up to me because of this blog. I’m not the only contributor, the readers and those who post comments are as well.
thank you all 🙂

congrats :o) Love reading your posts!
Congrats Mark. An average of 100 posts a year and you are telling Brad is a blogging addict 😉
And the winner is….
Thank you for all the blog posts!..they are great value to all of us
Thanks for your continuing work, Mark. Knowledge is best when shared!
Nice!
Congratulations! Keep up the good work – it’s appreciated!
Congratulations my friend! The best part about your blog is there’s so little “fluff” to it. It’s a meat and potatoes blog where each article has high quality content that’s concise and typically very helpful to the audience. This is one of the few blogs where its worthwhile to go back 2 years in time and just review all the posts to the current date.
I’m honored to have played a tiny part in getting you started.
Keep up the great work!
That’s awesome – congrats! (And keep your head up — that’s not too bad of a pace.)
Thank you all for the kind words. here’s to 500 🙂
Congratulations! I love reading this blog (even though I may not understand it all), but you keep me coming back… like beer at a pub!
YOU DA MAN!!!
