Sorry for the lateness in the big welcomes for all the new people. I've been on vacvation for the past few weeks and just got back to work this week. Wish I had stayed on vacation, oy. I see though during my vacation we have several new (and one returning) members. So a big ANN glomp and welcome to RahlEH, Revolutionary, JonatApp, Hepzibah, Pinnk, evafan244, biel, The Goron Marshall, joshki, RebirthedDuelist, Amon81, neomanxl, Lacks_Sympathy, Lelouch vi Britannia, Bitter Almonds, Taco-chan, B-503_MIA, Catsmack.

A big welcome back to the original Mr Grumpypants mod Nagisa heh. And also thanks to classicalzawa for clarifying that little gender confusing many of us seem to have had. Myself included. Hopefully all the new members are enjoying their stay and hopefully our returning mod is laughing his ass off at that little moe thing that has exploded heh.

As part of your welcomes though all you new members, and even Nagisa and classical too, get your very own Mystery Welcome Bag of goodies. These ones are special too as they're related to my awesome vacation to Fort Lauderdale and Miami. *hands them all their brown bags* So inside your bags you lucky people are now the owners of such fine items as a handful of pork rib bones from the dinner cruise I went on, some muddy sand from the beach i went to, a palm tree leaf each, some bottle caps from all the beer bottles that were drunk lol, and a photo of a sign at a museum i went to saying do not take photos. Hopefully you'll all enjoy your gifts and don't forget, Girls are like phones. They love to be held and talked to, but if you press the wrong button you'll be disconnected!

Fun Facts:

· First manga read was Love Hina, and I loved it.
· Like just about every anime out there, the ones with hype, the ones relatively unknown, subbed, dubbed, anything except yaoi.
· Wish to be a pianist, but I don’t have the patience for it.
· For several years in my childhood I thought I was warping to other dimensions whenever getting off the couch. Turns out, I was just getting dizzy.
· Every dog I’ve ever owned has bitten me, but I’m a dog lover nonetheless.
· I prefer pirates over ninjas. I know, people hate me already.
· Can’t think of anything else. That fact is fun, right?

To be precise you must have been pushing right buttons. Wink

That or just somehow not pushed the wrong one just yet. Or she might just be saving up all the angst for one super atomic blow. That would suck lol.

Treasure that sand always! It's special. Many an unclean hobo slept in the spot where I got it so who knows what stories it could tell lol.

And I see we have some more new blokes around these parts so a nice big hidely ho neighbor to Gatchi_Noke, Shawn Shaolin, ueo_86, Mistypearl, Anumari, and LordofNoe. Hopefully you'll all enjoy your stay here. Be sure to check out some of our Streaming Anime here...it's free! Very Happy As part of your welcome you all shall get your very own mystery bag of goodies. *hands them all a brown paper bag* Inside this marvel of modern technology you will all find an old, dirty, used dish towel, a 4x4 inch piece of leaf from a banana tree, the folded classifieds from the October 11th issue of the Washington Post from 1985, and a handful of small jawbreakers soaked in pickle juice. I hope you all enjoy this bounty of treasure and just remember; "Marriage is give and take. You'd better give it to her or she'll take it anyway."
