I'd love to take you up on that one Vain but I've discovered I don't have any funny pictures of you! ;)

P.S. I'll bid $60,000 for the Krill.
War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself.

Yeah, I think I did say 5pm Eastern on the 29th. You all seem to be having so much fun, though. Heh. Anyway, I think that makes the winner Lord Mhoram with a bid of 63,000 WGD. Congrats, LM! Thanks everyone for joining in the auction, and I'm sorry if you didn't win. But maybe I'll hold another auction sometime.-jay
