I don't know the precise day, but shouldn't we do something special?

Wasn't the Original Series started in 2002? Making next year the ten-year anniversary?

Apparently there are different years given on different pages. We should fix this. Anyone have a more definitive source?

... that Jay and Acy started work between December '01 and December '02 - that is, between FotR and TT. The Board (this one here!) was relaunched in '03, according to the Main Page.

So, we can assume PPC is born in December '01? by

It wasn't already published, probably, but nevertheless it started at that time.
So, December would probably be a good time to do a PPC Parade. Just in time for Floaters to show off their new shiny equipment. -

I still don't understand why the anniversaries divisible by 10 get all the fun. The nines are where the real party's at!
Nine is an excellent number. Ah, yes.
Nine walkers? Yeah?
Quote the OFUM:
9's a number that is fun
Not an O next to a 1:
Never shalt thou count thee ten
There were 9, they all were men.
9 is the number
9 is the number
9 is the number
Lord Elrond tells me so!

...not count to ten. Noither shalt thou count to eight, excepting that thou then preceedist to nine.
Eleven is right out, excepting on an amplifier where eleven is louder than ten. If thy amplifier goest to eleven then thou shalt rock out. -

I don't mean to crash any parties or anything, but...
I was just browsing the internets on a whim when I came across a production video for the hobbit (source: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FfesknLk5uI)
And I totally geeked out. So much, in fact, that it made me miss my days here at the PPC. You see, I'm a former boarder- I haven't kept track of the number of years gone.
The fact that I came back in the middle of a party is just an ode to the awesomeness that this day is taking on.
Hi guys! *dons a ridiculous party hat*

I've got burgers, boneless pork chops, and boneless chicken breasts. There's also some salmon for anyone abstaining for Lent, but I wasn't sure what types of vegetarian food are grillable so I didn't pick those up. -

I've never been a big fan of brauts, but I'm surprised I missed the hot dogs. Luckily, Costco is less than a mile from work -- how are the assorted condiments holding up? Do we need more mustard while I'm out?

I'll bring copious amounts of Brown Mustard. If anyone wanted yellow mustard, tough luck because Brown is BETTAH.

Is the Original Series dated? Or Camilla Sandman might know, but maybe not.
