    I like this very much. It will add to the collective and our posts will grow strong in knowledge!

    Besides, it amuses me to see rambunctious on my screen :)

    Excellent, next time I will try to give a real answer. I just hope people ask me the right question cause most of my answers resemble a 16th century house pet somewhat resembling a large chicken with no genitalia

    Huh... I always thought you went with either monkeys or chickens as a response. How about that?
