No material, no rehearsal and the guest hasn&#8217;t arrived. Yeah! It&#8217;s like we never even went on vacation. <a title=\"#craptvftw\" rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/search?q=%23craptvftw\">#craptvftw<\/a>. <\/em> But as usual, he delivered far more, with a great first show back from vacation.\u00c2\u00a0 The volcano was rocking with excitement to see Craig back with new episodes.\r\n\r\nPerhaps Craig spotted all of the RSA members with mustaches on their avatars, because as fans pointed out&#8230; not only did last night&#8217;s band,<strong> The Chiefs<\/strong> all have mustaches, even the cat at the end of the show had one.\u00c2\u00a0 Craig&#8217;s former experimental mustache &#8220;Rudy&#8221; had his revenge for a night.\u00c2\u00a0 And LLS producer Michael Naidus had the last word:\u00c2\u00a0 <em>Contrary to rumors, first show back didn&#8217;t suck at all.  Enjoy<\/em>\r\n\r\nThank you to all of the RSA members who popped into the RSA News chat room last night.\u00c2\u00a0 We had dozens of people spend some time and chat about Craig and the show.\u00c2\u00a0 We learned a few things:\r\n<ol>\r\n\t<li>Many roboskellies aren&#8217;t used to chat rooms. The technology predates Twitter and there aren&#8217;t as many chat rooms around the interwebs as there used to be.\u00c2\u00a0 The advantage is that you can have many people in the room talking in real time.\u00c2\u00a0 The disadvantage is that is can be a little confusing.\u00c2\u00a0 After a little practice, it makes more sense.<\/li>\r\n\t<li>People were most enthusiastic about talking before the show.\u00c2\u00a0 Once the show started, many disappeared&#8230; saying it was difficult to watch the chat room, Twitter, Facebook and Craig at the same time.\u00c2\u00a0 So going\u00c2\u00a0 forward, we may just try having the room open before a show but not during.<\/li>\r\n\t<li>There seemed to be plenty of enthusiasm the Eastern, Central and Mountain time zones before the show aired in the east.\u00c2\u00a0 It was pretty quiet when the show was on in the west.\u00c2\u00a0 Let&#8217;s go west coast skellies!<\/li>\r\n\t<li>Finally, we learned that it is great fun to have so many skellies together, talking and meeting new people.\u00c2\u00a0 We&#8217;ll definitely do it again sometime soon.\u00c2\u00a0 Thanks for helping the RSA have a fun night!<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\nWe heard some good advice from Craig&#8217;s assistant <strong>Rebecca Tucker<\/strong> last night:\u00c2\u00a0 <em>Ghost stories before bed are not a good idea. <\/em> This morning, General @<strong>malinky2stoatir<\/strong> was pleased as she posted the new show:\u00c2\u00a0 <em>Having  my tea &amp; giggling&#8230;thinking about the collective Fergasmic sigh of
