I need to watch this, it helps me keep persective. I've posted it before.

Let us all get along in stereoish brotherly, um, like for a moment. Which intentionally excludes the HT people. Man how I hate them.

Cheers.

Very neat. I've been down on 'stories' lately. I needed someone to tell me that stories can be good or bad.

Had a GREAT time in SC. Didn't have a chance to visit Shealys but did have some home cooked fried chicken

I also heard someone use the phrase, 'down yonder'

Second time south and I'm really beginning to appreciate it.
