A Milestone Will Be Reached by "The Griper"

Well, my good friends,  The Griper is about to hit a milestone with his blog.  He is a very small blog and because of it he has met some people that he would like to consider as very good friends along the way.  He is about to have his 15000th hit and he would like to thank all of his loyal visitors.  Exactly when it will occur he does not know but based upon the traffic of the past it should be within the next couple of days. Right now it stands at 14,964 hits.

He hopes that his writings has been inspiring as well as interesting over the long time he has called this small area of the web his own little corner.  He will say though that he has learned a lot from those who took the time to comment on any of my posts and he knows he will continue to learn from each and everyone of you.

He has appreciated the respect shown by all in your comments and he hopes that all feel that the Griper has treated each of you, regardless of political leanings, with the same respect in his posts.
