My youngest daughter has a guy who absolutely worships the ground upon which she walks.
She considers him to be a good friend. <--- 
He's in the military.
Upon hearing of her recent breakup from a total lout he has decided to fly home to comfort her.
Her analysis: "He's just using me as an excuse to come home to visit his family."
I laughed and she wanted to know why but I didn't tell her.
My daughter is like an antelope out on the Serengeti who has just attributed the snapping of twig to a meerkat.
The cheetah moves closer.
I stand back, horrified, as nature takes its course.

Did your father-in-law have similar musings when you were courting his daughter? I wonder. 
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

You do realize that when she works it out, you're going to be in sooooo much trouble, don't you? 
You know that this is going to be all your fault in the end!

It'll only be your fault until they marry.
Then everything is the new husband's fault.

I had a quick glance at Who's Who to check SheepLover's status on the race to a million and while there I went to see how far back I am. So I am at the top of page 2, which is almost worth being chuffed, but even better I have the highest reputation on CP without resorting to a monthly award or MVP.
I am so proud.

Hey, you just got me doing the same. I've been stationary on page 7 for a LOOOONG time, but now I'm on page 5! Cool! 
My aim is to get to Page 3 and meet my big idols, Nicola Tappenden...

Is that "Nicola Tappenden, 31, from Croydon"?

For a brief while that was me, and it is curiously gratifying.

Yes, page two, been there a while. Looks like I finally got Smitha under me.
You'll never get very far if all you do is follow instructions.

Not to mention page 4[^], which has a 23.4K user stuffed between two 111K users.

I'm on Page 3.
I think I've got the highest rating earned purely by titting about in the lounge.

Nope. According to his stats he contributes in Q&A.
I add literally nothing of substance to the site.
