Helen and bel, you better leave this thread alone...don't start!

Well, Angel, I guess I should have included the phrase and the usual suspects after mentioning Helen and bel, 'cause it seems a lot of "the ladies (and I use that term [ahem] loosely) of the board" are competing for the "Most Gutter Police Citations of the Year Award"! ain't that so, Jackie?...you keepin' track here?...hey, wait a minute!...our resident GP seems to be in the running, too!So, sure, go ahead, Angel, take it away...somebody's got to do it I guess!
