Ever see them ovie ‘grumpy old men’? I was the producers case study for the movie :) J/K I’ve got a great sense of humor (if a little warped at times)- just didn’t know if you were pointing out my spelling mistakes- I’m afraid I’m incorageable when it coems to checking my spelling (I spent too much time as editor of school newspaper- and dreaded every minute of it- checking the spelling al lthe time- got fed up with it- I’ve just no patients for it anymore)
