19 years and counting. I've gone from being a newbie to learning to trying to assimilate. Now I just don't give a **** and I am myself.......... of course the wife wonders why we have no freinds and nobody calls us.

You also remind me of that 70's ad for cheap aftershave. Denim, for the man who doesn't have to try too hard. Right next to the Brut 33, old spice and Hi-kirate
