Glad you are well sir, and welcome back. PM is just in the doldrums really. Good time to slowly accumulate to me. Buy when no one is interested,...
She was pissed about being proven wrong, but she "kind of knew me" and knew I would not let it lie if she refused to correct his test. She gave...
I have the same pet peeve about people "correcting" roman numerals. I taught my son correctly that forty could be XL or it could be XXXX. He wrote...

How many made posts in more than 1 year? 400?
