    Well I still think Josh is a dork; I've just shifted my perspective of his humor. (In this instance, anyway).

    I had to dig for that stuff, but you'd be amazed at the collection of pics we have stored on this server. Let's just say we try not to actively delete things that get uploaded - drive space is cheap, and potential humor value is limitless. We have literally thousands of "historical documents" on here...
