do any of you ever get comments like "How in the heck did *your name here* get the *your award here* award?"
I seem to get it quite a bit, it's almost as if the funniest member ribbon isn't as respected as some of the others.

It's just you trib. Well, mostly it's just the pink ribbon. If they didn't vote, they can stop complaining. I guess you could tell them you're supporting breast cancer research...that's the other use for pink ribbons, right? Are you offering mobile breast exams on the PF tour bus? :smile:

He'd wish that was possible...:-p

I hope everyone's breasts are healthy and do not require any examination.Medical,that is...

you need to learn when to shut up. :wink:
breast exams? sure, I actually know how to examine breasts. I'd be willing to examine all the women here, you know, purely medical examinations, make sure you don't have gingivitis or scoliosis in your mammalarians (sorry, I had to use medical terms). cause I worry about you ladies.
