Hey Melissa, I hope we start seeing you more often again. Your postings always provide some fresh air after all the political paranoia and backbiting elections bring out on this site. I admit I'm more of a lurker than an active participant, but that's because most of the postings on your threads take place after midnight and I just don't have the energy to stay up that late any more. Still, I always look forward to reading them.
P.S. I'm glad the avatars are back, too. I missed them, particularly yours, Genghis' Cricket4's and even Offensive to You's. I always liked that portrait of ol' Vlad for some reason.
