Or…um…just ignore this, since either you edited your note to me really, really quickly or I’m a tard who didn’t read your note completely.\*

Carry on.  
\*I vote “The second option!” 😛

I would swear that the second half of the note to Dio wasn’t there, but then, it’s possible that many of my brain-cells have been killed by years of reading conspiracy theory web-sites.

Mods–you can either close this if you want, or leave it open so people can point-and-laugh. 😃

Closed at request of OP.

(Of course, you realize people will still point and laugh, just that you won’t be able to see it. :D)
