Heck, the weather sucks, it's a weeknight, maybe you should go delete some PMs...
I just went from 120 -> 25...
Deleted all the nasty ones I was saving for blackmail. that helped a lot...
Don't forget there is apparently a limit of 150 or something with the new board software, so if you are approaching that, you might not get that PM from that hot chick/stud who wants to go snow camping this w/e.
