Heh, yeah. You know me by now. Always testing the borders. But yeah that was a little over the top. I admit. Sorry.
EDIT: Haven't had anything to eat before now. I think that may have influenced my bad decision.

Yeah, sorry people, your loss. 
I better keep it to myself though if I don't want to get kicked out of here. It's not difficult to find references I scattered around though. Think saucy.
EDIT: Oh, and by the way: I'm really impressed with the moderation speed (unless I'm on a special watch list which wouldn't surprise me)!
