Posted By: <b>Cat (ret.)</b><p>Guys:<br /><br />I have lurked a bit but this is the first time I have logged in for almost two months. My "retirement" from collecting is not as succesful as I had hoped. Yeah Barry, that "ret." was an attempt at some subtle humor.

Thanks to everyone
 

Posted By: <b>barrysloate</b><p>Hope you stick around. It's as crazy as ever these days. You're missing all the fun!

Thanks to everyone
 

Posted By: <b>Jeff Lichtman</b><p>Cat, while your Michael Jordan-like retirement will likely cost me money sometime soon, I'm happy to see you back. <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14>

Thanks to everyone
 

Posted By: <b>Wesley</b><p>It is interesting to see the reemergence of Cat on the same day Jay gets the boot. Is Cat some kind of alternate ID for Behrens or something?

Thanks to everyone
 

Posted By: <b>Cat (ret.)</b><p>Geez Wes:<br /><br />Let me answer your question with a question: Have you ever seen us at a party together? <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14>

Thanks to everyone
 

Posted By: <b>Cat (ret.)</b><p>BTW:<br /><br />I thought this post deserved a few courtesy laughs:<br /><br /><br /><br />Jay's quote: "So what's the new total of people banned from the site..."<br /><br />Answer: One less than it should be<br /><br />

Thanks to everyone
 

Posted By: <b>Jason L</b><p>and yes, I did laugh heartily at that one.<br /><br />And since that was your first post in months, might I add that I thought it was a helluva entrance! You entered the room with a bang - Kramer woulda been proud<br /><br />I didn't post anything cuz I couldn't think of anything witty.

Thanks to everyone
