I just updated today's meters/hours and I hit silver. I am shining or glittering or something. Actually silver isn't all that hard, I just stick to drinking water. It works every thime.
3 more days and I'll be a golden boy. Well, 3 more sessions.

Keep on rock'n and smiling folks.

Everybody wants to be an Aggie..and we're not talking about life on the farm...we're talking about SILVER (chemical symbol Ag)...and the quest for Silver Medal status, earned with a 10 hr "donation" in the Rowlympics. Congrats to Mighty Thor for putting in the time, and following the golden carrot. Better refresh your knowledge of the Periodic Table of the Elements...there is sure to be a quiz.

Image
Medal tally: 9 Lunies

Silver (Ag): 1
Bronze (Cu+Sn): 8

Hope everyone is working through the Dog Days Challenge and getting this week's 20K contribution into their personal meter bank. Your personal status on the Dog Days Challenge is listed on the right side of your logbook page...one of the nice improvements in the recently upgrade. That said, it's not an honorboard that is searchable by affiliation, and I'm not going to do a tally until THE END.

Congratulations, David A and Tombeur, on another million meters.
And where's my sunglasses - all this Rowlympic medal bling...
Just back from a little beach vacation - yup, another anniversary.
And yup, I already know which element of the periodic table that 00-Minnie
thinks should have my attention now. And it has an atomic mass of 12 ...

Well a big rousing Flintstone Happy Anniversary song for you and yours.
I think that was the episode when Fred bought a hot piano for Wilma and before the police removed it they all sang that song. 88 Fingers was in there too I think. Oh the silly things I remember from when I could still see a bit.

We've got a proliferation of silver medals today as Derric and E V join Thor on the silver podium. Thor is about 1 1/4 hours away from Gold status. Tombeur and David A are about an hour away from Silver status. Jean just captured her bronze (well done), and some of us are still plugging along towards bronze...Image copper and tin...copper and tinImage...snort.

Thank you K2
Nice job E V.
Here’s hoping they don’t test me. It would be embarrassing to have them strip away my gold. I’m on the juice. Apple, orange and when I feel like stacking I toss some berries, melon and other fruit in the blender. I am a wild man! Haha.
Me thinks me take tomorrow off. Ug ug.

Keep on rock’n for a medalfolks.

Lots of alchemists here on the team - working to change bronze to silver and silver to gold! Congratulations, E V, on reaching GOLD status! Mike C, Ed, David A, and Tombeur join Derric on the Silver podium. Bill, Kevin and David T join Jean and Louis on the bronze podium...and so many more are within mere minutes of a medal !
