Guest guest Posted June 19, 2003 Report Share Posted June 19, 2003 Egg Zackly Incorrect. Not everyone in the " pocket protector can't get a non cyber date blah blah " crowd thinks its a compliment. *SIGH* Strike one. I was chalking this whole ordeal up to a misunderstanding, but its getting harder and harder to do so. This is my last post dealing with this childish crap. Good luck working it out obviously some people are just too stubborn.
