No I just think we have to let the system work. If DD is better KK will go out of business or vice versa. NO way the system will allow both to exist.

i looked in a pic i sent him of me and xs2pup.

Hey, I've seen that picture. You mean that was YOU in that pic and not xsteen?! I was going to send you a reply about what a hottie xsteen was, but as you know from previous discussions, I consider such comments about friends' daughters to be out of bounds. Since I now know that was you, I feel free to say "What a hottie!"

Happy Birthday.
