Later, kids. I’m heading off to spend the holidays with the wife’s family. They’re not so much into the computers, so I don’t expect to have much if any internet access for the next week and a half. I’ll be back in 2006. Everyone play nice while I’m gone. Or don’t, **Veb** and **fluiddruid** do enjoy a good ass-kicking. Makes them all festive and shit.

And yes, I’m well aware that this OP isn’t even remotely Pit-worthy. Heck, I’d fully support a move/lock on this thing. Crappy ass threads like this have no place in the Pit. Just didn’t want to vanish without a trace, you know?

Yesh, is this your second vacation already? What dirt do you have on the rest of the Mods to be able to take this much vacation?

I’m leaving Christmas Eve, and won’t be back till New Year’s Eve. I _know_ I won’t have internet access.  
Obviously, I’m not a mod, but yeah, play nice everyone.  
Have a nice holiday of your choice. Sleep late, eat too much, play with your new toys.

I expect lots of good threads to read when I get back, and someone better make sure I’m kept up-to-date on all the board scandals.

Thanks for the reminder of that classic. I needed a good laugh.

I always wondered what to use for stuffing when cooking a Giraffe. Now I know.
