In case you didn't get the gist of this post it is this: flip you and the horse you rode in on. You forgot that cutesy "Esq." sig, you overstuffed shirt/buffoon. |

I would like to wish you good luck sorting out your problem on your own now - but I'm not going to. I hope you flounder to the full degree you deserve for being such an appallingly rude ****. I'm working from a new PC; I didn't bother trying to import my killfile entries from my last one, but you're now the first there. *plonk* I've sped up my computer quite a bit. Cleaned out unneccessasssry files. Cleaned out my registry. And am going to get rid of quite a bit more crap. Sorry you were unable to help. Hope you don't feel useless or anything. Also, mr. anal retentive: there are errors in my posting. Could you please figure them out and get back to me. Thanks. |
