Well, it seems I've been slightly reticent in my duties. For this I appologize. I hope someday you will forgive me. There are about thirty overheards I have to post, so I'm breaking it down into two updates, one today, one tomorrow. Submitting pace has slowed down tremendously (this makes sense considering how few updates I've been doing) but please send in your overheards.
Ok, enough groveling. It's stupid time.
