    congrats and rock on your Guru self Steve.

    I am actually trying to remain active on the board for three more years without becoming a Guru, I retire after that and I sure as hell aint hanging out here without getting paid to do so when I can be on my own personal national bare nekkid tata's bar tour with a panel van, a bottle of Rum, and pet beagle.

    So go get em Guru's.

    You can get some pretty good gyros "over here" as long as the person who makes them learned how and is from "over there".

    This is only from a "Polk Expert" so it probably doesn't matter as much. Someday he and Mhardy will be gurus, until then just listen.

    EDIT---- Where's the smiley? Actually I believe that anybody that matters also understands.
