Here's an update at 10:44 (99,953 posts):

Still in contention of the original 11 posters who met the deadline:

DavidinHartford guessed 10:00 am 

keldashelton guessed 1:07 pm (if I've calculated right!  She said 7:07 pm her time and said it was GMT +1).

jpwagoneer guessed 8:11 pm

With 47 posts to go:

If we reach 100,000 before 1:07 pm EDT, David is the winner.  If not, it looks like Kelda will take it.  8)

Darn it. Bad bet on my side! 
Anyways, shouldn't we get ready and kill us a nice elk for the 100.000 posts celebration?  ;D

My guess for Honorable Mention status:

Thu, Oct. 26 at 11:13 am EDT.


I did guess Thu, Oct. 26 at 11:13 am EDT for honorable mentioned status yesterday.  So if you all keep up the good work, I may be very close.  ;D

I will be on my way to work at the time that we reach 100,000 posts.  A big advanced Yeehaw from me!

Anke, I already have my 30.30 handy  ;D But since elk is more than rare in my garden, I guess we'll have to settle for beans and whiskey.

40 posts to go. 39 after I submitted this one.

Got yer 30/30 loaded?  Only 33 posts to go!

Still in contention for Honorable Mention:

newyearsday (10:03 am)
JennyC (11:13 am)
ifyoucantfixit (12:12 pm)
chefjudy (9:24 pm)

If there are 33 posts before 11:13 am, newyearsday takes it.  If not, looks like JennyC is the one.  Our Jennys are real thinkers there!  8)

That's right!  We Jennys are the real thinkers.  Ok I am done bumping threads to reach my guess here.   ;)  See you in a bit for the celebration.

OK, I'm placing a call to reserve a private jet and personal chef for DavidinHartford's virtual date with Jake.  Be thinkin' where you'd like to go, David!  8)

And JennyC, I'm lining up a bunch of shot glasses so you can pour us out a drink to help you celebrate winnin' that virtual case of Old Rose.  ;D
