For those of you who are regulars to these parts, you know that the 5-at-10 never stops Mondays-through-Friday.

We’ve done them from Montana and the panhandle. We’ve done them covered in snow with kids begging to get outside. We’ve done them with fevers approaching 103 – for us and family members – and with trash cans next to the keyboard.

Since late October, 2010, every day since, we have submitted and the talented TFP web team has posted some version of this silliness.

Thanksgiving and Christmas are not excused, although we normally cut back into smaller scale versions on holidays and during family vacations. This is 1,849 in a row, and the following is as big as its ever been.

For that – and for all you regular and occasional commentators – please know that I am truly thankful.
