Perhaps you may not be familiar with the user BAM. BAM, otherwise known as Bored As Mustard, was one of the great Superlative Answerbaggers of Answerbag History. BAM was a great and well known Answerbagger, and helped AB at great extents. I only got to meet her once, and that was on the very first day that I signed up, and then BAM left.

BAM is (Or was, at least) a brialliant, very popular Answerbagger, an even more wonderful person, and a very close friend and loved one of mine. She first showed up on AB midway through last year shortly before I did, she quickly became a popular member, and as corny as this probably sounds, it didn't take long me and her to become very close friends and eventually embark on a "Whirlwind Romance" of sorts (Although admittedly it was somewhat limited by the long distance, but we made our relationship work very well, all things considered). Her departure has actually taken quite a toll on me, but I won't get into all that here (You can see my profile for that if you like). Unfortunately, she had a lot of personal problems in her life, which left her very stressed and depressed, and finally, in early June 2007, those problems came to a head in a series of events which I'm afraid I can't go into details on here, and she suddenly left. No one known to AB or to me has spoken to her since that day, and I seriously doubt that will change any time in the foreseeable future. I'm afraid that's about all I can say at on the matter at this juncture.
