Well, well, well....I open this thing in the late night last night and it’s @Raze and @davet75 slugging it out Mano a Mano (Y’know...Mano...the fishbowl head villain from the Legion of Superheroes) then I get up this a.m. and it’s an all-out barroom brawl for breakfast with @Funnybooks @ECDC and @Comcav! 
 

Thank you gentlemen for smashing furnishings with me like the bunch of drunken rock stars that you are  But we have a long way to go til Monday at 10pm Eastern, and vile villains lurk these board, plotting dastardly deeds, no doubt!
