LUNA-TICS TEAM ROOM: Year-round "Looney" fun.

[macbruce1]

Whoop, whoop and hooyah! With a palindrome, Stuart crosses the ONE million meter milestone for the 2015 Erging season! Congratulations and way to go! We wish you many, MANY more!!

Last year on this day, Stuart was at 1.05 MM....looks like he has mastered consistency!

......and, it is NOT, as Emerson wrote, "a foolish consistency" which is "the hobgoblin of little minds" Congratulations Stuart

Rocky and Bullwinkle, of Saturday morning cartoon fame, often delivered some of the best squirrel moose dialogue. After looking at our standings, and noticing that the Ancients were chomping at our heels, I looked to them for analysis of our situation...

Rocky: Hey Bullwinkle, we're in real trouble now!
Bullwinkle: Oh good, Rocky! I hate that artificial kind!

If you're working towards being in the middle of the pack, you need to have earned greater than 49,000 m. Top ten percent is coming in at greater than 172K, and top 100 is now a whopping greater than 335K. Fierce competition in these virtual waters!

Congratulations Kerry, on earning your canoe! I believe that AJ is working on caricatures that weren't "on file", so we'll get those posted as soon as we can. In the meantime, go teams!

After a rough day at work yesterday, I was super pleased to earn my canoe. Yay for Team Luna-Tics!

[Edscapade]

Whoop, whoop and hooyah! He's a SIX million meter man! Congratulations, Richard T, on achieving a 6 million meter erging season! We wish you many, MANY more!

wooooooooo hoopoe and congrats :} and thanks karyn for your quote....and to all my teammates for all the inspiration...luna-tics are the best.....and goooooooooooooooo pats :} btw...any seahawk fans here????

Big Seahawks fan for life here! Season ticket holder that my brothers use while I am over here. Also have the Seahawks tattoo. Bleed green and blue!! With that said I have the utmost respect for the New England Patriot fans and organization. Drew Bledsoe is a friend his dad was my high school football coach. I have seen and heard many stories from Drew on the respect of patriot nation. But... I still want my hawks to win their second Super Bowl!!

[William H]

First, I want to give Kona2 a heads up that I did NOT row a Fibonacci sequence today, so no need to double check the numbers. (You know I can't get that Village People song out of my head since you posted, "Nacci, Nacci man ..." )

Now for some unadulterated self-indulgence:

Today I finally posted 17,000,000 Lifetime Metres. It certainly didn't come quickly, nor was it as hard as some of the earlier Million Metre Milestones; but it means a lot to me personally and I wanted to share my accomplishment and my thanks with the Luna-Tics team.

I couldn't have done it without you.

Now, off to order one of these and enjoy a few cold ones when it arrives:

Congratulations, Wild Bill ! That's a significant milestone! We wish you many, MANY more !! And those Village People....well, it's just one of those mini-bunny trails that happens.....hahahaha!

[Kona2]

Whoop, whoop and hooyah! Congratulations, bg, on achieving a FOUR million meter 2015 season (and there are STILL 100 days to add to that meter piggy bank) ! We wish you many, MANY more!!

Btw, what's your lifetime meter total?

[just27]

Minnie 12,718 m....say what? NOT a palindrome...no hula hula for you! hahahaha!

Sorry to startle you, Astrogator ... I was watching "Boyhood" last night, and hoping desperately that something would happen to someone, at sometime. Eventually, I just had to stop, regardless of my meters, and walk away. "Gone Girl" is up for tonight; expectations are much higher.

[stubabs]

Thanks team for all of the congrats. It appears as though all my life is a cycle. Very happy that my rowing is basically on pace as last year.

Wow! so many achievements this day of days. It is so very cool to be a part of this group. Keep on rock'n one and all. I don't think I'm all that far from my first ever million.
have fun

[danwho]

Wow, lots of catching up. I want to add my congrats for recent milestones by Richard, Stuart, bg, and Will Bill. I also recently hit the 17MM lifetime meters, and that's one fine looking mug.

Also have the Seahawks tattoo. Bleed green and blue!!

Oh my... bg, please be careful with the appetizer toothpicks at your Superbowl party, or you might wake up with a tattoo too.

m ...a who-la who-la palindrome!

I guess I'm a sucker for a little who-la-la on the perilous seas.
