10^6 comment party successfully completed

Steve Higgins of Of Two Minds and I got together with some Midwestern friends at Jupiter's Pizza in Champaign last Saturday to celebrate the millionth comment on Scienceblogs. We ate pizza, drank draft cider (okay, Lisa and I did), discussed what it meant to be an engineer, and stuck the Sb stickers on our shirts. I think a good time was had by all, but certainly by me. Thanks to those who came out to celebrate with us!
