129. And that sound would be "cuckoo."

As in the sound made by the "sound a clock makes" threads. Too bad I put all of the people who posted those threads on ignore. Now I won't be able to see their responses to my super-special post. C'est la Vie.

Oh yeah, I almost forgot. The guy who kept posting Jimmy Buffett's "Come Monday" with the shark video. Just like Scarecrow in Wizard of Oz, I'll miss him the mostest.
