You need to stop doing this. It makes you seem small. I'm a bigwig major Senior Computer Developer, I know things. Back in the day, Free Republic was better when people didn't post stuff like this. After all, God wouldn't post this. It's REEEEEEALLLLLyyyyyy awful. You're at fault for destroying Free Republic. But please don't leave, I couldn't stand FR without you. Call me???

God bless,

and Merry Christmas!!!
