      You didn't miss much on the internet because those nude picks of Ray broke it.

    Welcome Back friend Lurker.
    You have been missed.
    Ray has gotten all uppity in your absence and needs you to dominate him again!
    (Post Script, the Shed of war has been lacking atmosphere since you left!)
