Congrats JJ, and here's to many more posts.

We should start a pool to see when JJ hits 100k, my guess is Sept, 2011.

Just out of curiosity what does JJ stand for. Now this is directed at JJ and I have a stinking feeling that there will be some wild answers.

WOW!
What kinda pictures do you have that he felt he
needed to give you such a beautiful gift haha (jk)

Congrats
That is an amazing gift.
Really beautiful and Bubba is really an amazing
guy!

PS for those keeping track my BDay is 3/21 the first real
day of spring AND I also got engaged on Valentines day.
I will understand if I just get one gift from each of you
for both occasions due to the economy ;)
