Hey guys,

I've got surgery scheduled for today. Some kind of tumor or cyst in the sinus cavity and roof of the mouth. So I'll more likely than not be gone for a few days....(waits for the cheers to die down). Anyhow....I didn't want some of y'all to think I was running out on this one. I'll be back as soon as the drugs wear off.....and I can suck broth through a straw. Or something like that!

Meanwhile....I want Atlasman to announce and run for President. (I haven't heard any better double-speak since...."it depends on what the meaning of is, is".) I think you got a shot man....and it's an idea worth pursuing.

Indiana Dude...you should apply to be his campaign mananger! I haven't seen a willingness to "explain for someone else" so quickly.....since well the Clinton/Gore years.

And there are apparently enough "yes" men...at your behest....to fill a cabinet!

I think we really got something going here! It'd be a shame to waste so much political talent! Maybe we could call it the Hunters Forum Platform Party...or something like that. H.F.P.P. And a catchy little phrase like the "Huff & Puff Party" (get it H.F.P.P.).....or something like that!

Oh.....and by the way! If you guys get any other "good" threads going while I'm gone....save some for me!

Keep it real guys!
