Geeeee, I'm blushing.....it's nice to hear from more of you. Heck, that even includes you Shermie's.
to animal: No worries mate,
somebody's got to keep the humour level up around here. ...and that would be me.
to cardinal: "Pain" huh?......unfortunately my wife has a corner on that discriptive.
to shonen_red: That's Tread
meister to you!......
to 'Roo: Hey, no worries to you as well. Who could possibly miss ya, what with that bloody big floppy hat of yours!

(sorry, couldn't find a smiley with a 'boonie' hat...)
to 'Zod: I remember that show. Always had a 'thing' for his wife......
to 'Our man Flizer': That sound in the corridors you heard is actually true. When I got into town it was on the 'RedEye', didn't walk in the door until the crickets had gone to bed. I thought only the blokes on the bottom of the Earth (you know, the bugger's in Oz), were around the halls in the middle of the night (U.S. time

)
to kkeefe: All I have to say to you is "Thanks!" I quickly read through the "Incoming!!" finish line thread and TRULY appreciate all of your assistance while I was away. A Noncom
poop you are
not! You are a good compadre is what you are.
Now, that I've tossed butter all over you. Who is responsible for doling out the Campaign Ribbons? Don't get me wrong, I also appreciate whoever it was that did that. I guess I just need to be
granted the POWER to do it myself as well.
I've got to go over the comprehensive list and make sure everyone gets their proper recognition. Because as you say, the entries are truly fantastic! And all participants should be commended to the highest degree!
to Shermie's:.....................I don't believe you.
Surely yer holdin' out on me.......
to Arthur: Holy Mother MaCree!!!!! Man, I haven't heard from you since Snicker's were a Shilling my friend!........geeeeeeez, but, I am truly honoured you decided to pipe in with your " Welcome"......I need to sit down for a sec......
to Blaster76: If you're including me in your reference to "you three clowns" then I take that as a compliment. I've always thought I looked pretty good in face paint, and feel I carry it off with aplume!.......
Although, truth be told....I'd put my money on animal to win any upcoming beauty contest's. Word is, facial hair is 'in'.....
Tread.
