    A new window pops up and the contributors are already listed for you sorted by # of posts.
    I highlight, copy and past all the data in that window into a spreadsheet.
    In the spreadsheet you can then count all the lines (which corresponds with the # of contributors)
    In this case it is 557.

    Interesting data available to us :) have fun.

    That is cool! I didn't know you could do that.

    cool, we definitely have some dedicated contributors to this thread

    In everyone's honor, yet another Replacements song. Everyone raise a frosty mug of their favorite beverage and let's toast to PJ playing The South (hopefully ;) ) this year:


    The Replacements - "Here Comes A Regular"

    Well a person can work up a mean mean thirst
    After a hard day of nothin much at all
    Summers passed, its too late to cut the grass
    There aint much to rake anyway in the fall

    And sometimes I just aint in the mood
    To take my place in back with the loudmouths
    Youre like a picture on the fridge thats never stocked with food
    I used to live at home, now I stay at the house

    And everybody wants to be special here
    They call your name out loud and clear
    Here comes a regular
    Call out your name
    Here comes a regular
    Am I the only one here today?

    Well a drinkin buddy thats bound to another town
    Once the police made you go away
    And even if youre in the arms of someones baby now
    Ill take a great big whiskey to ya anyway

    Everybody wants to be someones here
    Someones gonna show up, never fear
    cause here comes a regular
    Call out your name
    Here comes a regular
    Am I the only one who feels ashamed?

    Kneeling alongside old sad eyes
    He says opportunity knocks once then the door slams shut
    All I know is Im sick of everything that my money can buy
    The fool who wastes his life, God rest his guts

    First the lights, then the collar goes up, and the wind begins to blow
    Turn your back on a pay-you-back, last call
    First the glass, then the leaves that pass, then comes the snow
    Aint much to rake anyway in the fall

    bump for the NHL's Southeastern Division...........home of the last 2 Stanley Cup Champions. Who would have thought The South could take over the hockey world. Factor in the way Nashville is playing and their addition of Peter "The Great" Forsberg and also the Dallas Stars and you have 4 teams with a great chance of keeping The Cup in The South. This has nothing to do with PJ, but I just wanted to show a little pride for The South. It seems everyone outside of this thread is having so much fun attacking us, I just thought I'd throw a little NAA NAA NAA NAA NAAAAA :p out there!

    Yeah, he isn't what he used to be but he is still a hell of a player. It sounds like there is a chance he may be back in Nashville next year. Then again there are probably several teams that will have a crack at him next year. But a friend of mine talked to Robert Esche of the Flyers after their game here the other night and he got all kinds of trading deadline dirt. Esche said there is no way Forsberg will be back in Philly next year. Despite what the media will lead you to believe about him loving Philly and wanting to go back next season. Esche said Forsberg was miserable. I guess playing on such a bad team has that effect on you.

    unofficial sticky agonizing decision bump

    i hate to do this, but here goes. i don't know who JTR's source is, but mine said this in the last 48 hours:

    "Hey

    Not much going on out here. McCready is doing a benefit show at the showbox in April and then the PJ guys are going to Europe for three weeks in June. Other than that, we may have a one off in Toronto in August. That's all I've heard about. Ed and Boom are playing at Jack Johnson's benefit in Hawaii April 21/22."

    So now I don't let myself get excited when "news" comes from someone on the board. Nothing against their credibility, I've just been let down so many times over the past year and it wears on me.

    Hang in there. The good news will come ~ eventually.

    Yeah, I have resigned to think JTR is full of shit. Hope I'm wrong. Jimmy, how close and informed is your source?

    Oh well, this thread will continue to grow much like the frustration that accompanies it.

    Cheezy 80's song (and this one was bad :eek: ) I thought of this morning to lighten up the mood a little:


    Timex Social Club - Rumors

    How do rumors get started, they're started by the jealous people and
    They get mad seein' somethin' they had and sombody else is holdin'
    They tell me that temptation is very hard to resist
    These wicked women, ooh, they just persist
    Maybe you think it's cute, but girl, I'm not impressed
    I tell you one time only with my business please don't mess

    Look at all these rumors surroundin' me every day
    I just need some time, some time to get away from
    From all these rumors, I can't take it no more
    My best friend said there's one out now about me and the girl next door

    Hear the one about Tina, some say she's much too loose
    That came straight from a guy who claims he's tastin' her juice
    Hear the one about Michael, some say he must be gay
    I try to argue, but they said if he was straight he wouldn't move that way
    Hear the one about Susan, some say she's just a tease
    In a camisole she's six feet tall, she'll knock you to your knees

    Look at all these rumors surroundin' me every day
    I just need some time, some time to get away from
    From all these rumors, I can't take it no more
    My best friend said there's one out now about me and the girl next door

    I can't go no place without somebody pointin' a finger
    I can't show my face ‘cause when it comes to rumors I'm a dead ringer
    It seems from rumors I just can't get away
    I bet there'll even be rumors floatin' around on Judgment Day
    I'll think I'll write my congressman and tell him to pass a bill
    For the next time they catch somebody startin' rumors, shoot to kill

    Look at all these rumors surroundin' me every day
    I just need some time, some time to get away from
    From all these rumors, I can't take it no more
    My best friend said there's one out now about me and the girl next door

    What's mine is mine, I ain't got time for rumors in my life
    I'm a man who thinks, not a man who drinks, so please let me live my life
    What's mine is mine, I ain't got time for rumors in my life
    I'm a man who thinks, not a man who drinks, so please let me live my life
    What's mine is mine, I ain't got time for rumors in my life
    I'm a man who thinks, not a man who drinks, so please let me live my life

    Look at all these rumors surroundin' me every day
    I just need some time, some time to get away from
    From all these rumors, I can't take it no more
    My best friend said there's one out now about me and the girl next door

    Look at all these rumors surroundin' me every day
    I just need some time, some time to get away from
    From all these rumors, I can't take it no more
    My best friend said there's one out now about me and the girl next door

    Stop (Stop) spreadin' those rumors around
    Stop (Stop) spreadin' the lies
    Stop (Stop) spreadin' those rumors around
    Stop (Stop) spreadin' the lies

    Stop (Stop) spreadin' those rumors around
    Stop (Stop) spreadin' the lies
    Stop (Stop) spreadin' those rumors around
    Stop (Stop) spreadin' the lies

    Stop (Stop) spreadin' those rumors around
    Stop (Stop) spreadin' the lies
