Well, my work here is done, see you guys in another year or so!

Thanks Lisa!(!) It's nice to see that someone pays attention to the crap I say!

Lessons learned! If you want the funniest member to stay here, never tell him that he's the funniest!

Don't take it seriously, jimmy! You know I wanted to bother others, so I said you were the funniest member since you weren't around at that time!o:)

Tribdog I have always had your back. And if I recall correctly, I think I am the only person who voted for you in this last funniest member award (poll?). Even though you were not listed in the choices, I still chose to do a write-in vote for you, because you are the funniest! If you want to impeach danger, I will be there to back you up :approve:
