Anyway, running on my goof up on the forum title, anybody else wanna take a go at creating the Most Inappropriate Forum Banner? 'Course, we'll be sending this thread to the flame wars in a matter of moments if we try it.

I can do it for free Zen.... lemme just steal a few packs of these from the ER after my next transport.

"I saw a kitten back at that house, but I wasn't going to say anything to you until we left the house!"

Yes, and that's why you hoard MEPs. Guess I should be grateful; you get to take the douchebag Timo Soini in your neighbourhood. Hope you didn't pay too much for your hou...
