I appreciate any info.

Once again the OP asked a simple honest question and got a few decent answers, why do some of you have to get on here and bash the sh*t out of him? Don't know an answer? or do ya just want to get your # of posts up? Are you angry? childhood issues? Maybe Mommy & Daddy didn't pay enough attention to ya....Don't like it do ya?
