Speaking of Olympics, we have a real phenomenon happening in New Member Introductions that has never been seen before:

I think Molly Williams got herself comfortably into the Four Digit Club in faster time than anyone who had preceded her (Kudos Molly! Completey deserved response!), but now.......

She and everyone else to this point have been completely blown aside by Joy Thomas's record shattering introduction. Joy has entered the Four Digit Club in LESS THAN NINE DAYS!! Amazing! Furthermore Joy has pulverized the previous reply record by more than 17 extra replies, thus far. That's sixty replies! We have never witnessed such celebrity popularity here with anyone else. Joy has earned every inch of her phenomenal popularity and responses. Way to go Joy!

So again, hearty successive congratulations to both Molly and Joy for each raising the bar with their talents and earned popularity.

Garth

"Oh my goodness!" she exclaimed as tears of happiness streamed down her flushed cheeks, "This is certainly the happiest day of my week... what a wonderful Valentine's surprise!" And then, mascara streaming as she laughed and cried, she accepted the kudos from Garth, Master of Ceremonies.

She completed the winner's walk while blowing kisses and waving to the crowd. They could only read her lips as she said "I love you all! Thank you all!" over and over again.

Congrats, Joy! To quote Bonfim, it "has been one of the most curious introductory threads" we have seen. And entertaiing, funny, poignant, revealing, informative, and more.

SEE! They like you Joy, they really like you!

(For those who don't know - these are a takeoff on Sally Field's famous words upon winning an Oscar).
