Let's see if I can hit the highlights for you and catch you up quick...
1: BrainsmashR went missing for awhile

Nobody knows where but there was lots of speculation.
2: Another Brain showed up.

Some thought it was BrainsmashR in disguise, some didn't. We're still not quite sure, but one thing we do know, he/she was funny.
3: This thread has been off topic many times.
4: Al got a spanking by the girls last night.

But he has recovered and probably won't take us on quite like that again. Isaac sure is scared of us and Neo hasn't dared joined in!
5: Anime is getting great advice from the girls this morning and we are cheering him on in his pursuit of a dream woman as fine as the girls on this board.
6: Bad news: It's lunch time and BrainsmashR has a lunch break and is busy on the board bashing folks, but that's ok they'll take care of him.
Hope this gives you a mini Siskel and Texasbelle review.
