Joe I want to give you kudos as it is obvious you spent a lot of time putting the Secret Room website together. Just the tips that are there must have kept you busier than a one armed man in man in a mosquito cage. Do you have a feel for the ratio of used versus unused submissions? Are there any hilarious submissions that didn’t make the grade in a blooper bin? Thanks for what has undoubtedly been a great deal of work on your part. I have spent a lot of time going thru them doing some ratings and writing a few replies and learned a lot. Keep up the good work you are a treasure.
