When I started writing these beer posts back in May 2003, I thought I would run out of things to post about in a couple of weeks, maybe a month. But over time I realized the truth of the blogger's creed: you don't necessarily have to have something to say to say something. But this sort of snuck up on me. I haven't kept a record of the number of beers I have tried or anything and my other place, Gen X at 40, is slowly creeping towards its 4,000th post. What could I have done with all that typing time back? I could be quite a moderately reasonably mediocre trombone player.
You know, I should mark it with a special beer or something. Or figure out my favorite post or photo. What do you suggest?

Figure out your favourite post. Or the one that generated the most interesting comments.

I wish my admin tools had a way to quickly determine "the most commented upon" post. That would be a good one to look back at.

I think you should brew a beer and let the words of a thousand posts inspire the recipe!
Congrats. I haven't been reading your blog for that long, but, I certainly wish I had found it earlier.
Cheers!

Get into the archives, Adam. There will be a test Monday.

Congratulations Alan. I hope that I can reach 1000 posts one day as well. Keep up the great work, I enjoy tuning in each day.
Cheers

I don't know if I have a way of counting the posts on my blog without clicking through them. On the other hand, maye I should, there is probably some interesting stuff there that I've forgotten about. PRobably badly written, but you can't have it all. I need an editor, which is why I publish some of my best stuff here.
