Drag him out of town by horses, kick him off the boat, Hell, shoot him in the face for all I care, but **bouv** has worn out his welcome for far too long and we have got to get rid of him!  
In the meantime, we are holding interviews for his replacement. Current candidates include:

**Mr.Snrub** (Yes, that will do…)  
**Thrillhouse** (sometimes also goes by **Thrillho** )  
**Captain Pantaloons**

We are also taking applications from other…umm…applicants, so if you have any suggestions, they will be welcomed.

No suggestions but I for one am glad to see you changing your name. Now you can have anagrams (which I don’t have - hmm) and you can do fun things with your name!

Yay!

(What is a bouv anyway?)

I always thought **Electronic Chaos** had a nice ring to it.

Hmm…it seems that one’s taken.

We already have a **Thrillhouse15** , so as much as I’ve always wanted to see a **Thrillho** on this board, it’s probably a bad idea.

If you want to keep it Simpsons-related… **Rory Calhoun**?
