    And thanks for throwing down, too. It proved to be alot more scary being in front of people than I thought. I can't wait to do it again, and see the nerves settle a bit. We should get together and talk about the next one after the Nov. 8th Throwdown!

    Forget about it. You don't have a girlfriend so that's out in the open.
