I need to go way more with my gut when it comes to crap like this. I still tell myself "this is total crap, i guess everyone will love it". {nm} goodvibe61 Feb 07, 08:36

I think he just enjoys getting people riled up. {nm} Raven9167 Feb 07, 09:44

I know he does. {nm} The Force-Ghost of DTravel Feb 07, 17:33
