Laugh, no. :)

Right-click on the menu panel (the one you have at the top) and select
panel->create panel->edge panel (or whatever type you prefer).

You may have to add individual applets and launchers back onto it. I'm
not sure. 

If you ever get to the stage where you delete -all- your panels, btw
(and you really have to try hard to achieve this), you can restart by
typing "panel" into a terminal. It will come back happily.
