I'll hold off on any celebrations until the new top brass is seated.

Unless they put Raquel Giscafre in charge, I don't believe there's anywhere to go but up.

Happy days are here again....

ROTF. Sorry, ever since someone posted the life size chocolate Jesus on here a few Easters ago instead of saying "Oh my god yay!" I say either that or "sweet baby Jesus" instead. I say it with a particular voice too. I'm special.

But Amen!

Me too

**Flikemommoilt** · 03-25-2009, 12:07 AM

So realistically, what's the chance that, assuming we get a reasonable person in this slot, the damage can be undone?

**Gometesstem** · 03-25-2009, 12:11 AM

Raise your hand if you are upset about it.

**Flikemommoilt** · 03-25-2009, 12:12 AM

Calling out Justine?

**verybigf** · 03-25-2009, 12:12 AM

I just read this elsewhere and almost had a trombone.

Now I have to go edit my sig. Or maybe it still stands, right Aedra?

Wouldn't it be funny if Justin Gimblestob replaces him?

She's busy doing her stand in job in Vegas for Celine.
