Really bad news and a sad first for me. So, for the first time, I&#039;m trying my hand at fighting an outbreak. Bought distilled water and toothpicks.

The innocent- looking green spot above the S on the reverse, however, is a totally different story.</p><p>Like I said, I&#039;ve never fought BD before, so I&#039;m keeping my fingers crossed.</p><p>I like the portrait...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
