I’ll play full contact ANYTHING with you, Bricker. And I will collect my 30 points in person, thank you. 😃 Pass Go and collect a googol of points if you’ve never posted a reply in ANY troll topic, ever. (If this posts twice, I’m sorry. It wouldn’t post {&%^$ spinning hourglass}, so I stopped it, opened a new window and checked the topic to see if it went through or not. It hadn’t, so here I am trying again. Therefore, if this only shows up once, I get +1000 pts. If I double post, I’ll forfeit 2000 pts. :() * * * “How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world.” - Anne Frank ---
