Boobs are a perfect representation of the universe.  They are circles within circles.  What is the single most common shape in the universe?  Circles.  When I look at boobs, I think of the big bang.

Or maybe he just misses Porgger. Maybe we should bring back Progrer Week. I still have my avatar:

I forgot about that... I don't have my avatar anymore, at least not on hand.  Thats awesome.

I'm a little nostalgic... There's something else I want to post but I want to wait a bit before I do it.

Progger, more recently known as ScottofRedemption. This was a little before my time, so I can't be much more help than that. He's around my age and a nice guy but he got banned a couple times IIRC.

I could give you the entire lowdown on this.

Back on dreamtheater.net, BEFORE the current message board, they used to have another message board.  There was one moderator active named borlag.  Anyways, I used to hang out in the dt side message board a lot, in the chat thread, and bosk, hef, and a few others were there, and thats how I met them.

ANYWAYS, someone made a thread called "Mike Portnoy.... Jewish?" and it was extremely active and went nowhere.  Then bosk posted a thread called John Myung... Asian? and I posted John Petrucci.... Guitarist?  And we kept going, and the last one was Progger... can't spell?  by bosk... with that exact thread.  And then borlag locked all the threads and zeroed our post counts.

I was there, it must have been in 2004 or 2005. I remember everybody putting a picture of a peacock (progger's avatar) in their own avatars. Progger was unable to spell correctly most of the time.
