Actually seems like you owe him the $20 dude. He didn't mention any other kind of documentation.

Never said it to anybody else I don't know why I should start with you. If you don't believe, it's completely okay with me. It doesn't seem as if you're as tolerant though.
I was trying to be respectful to you, I empathize very much with what you are going through right now. Im sure that your spouse needs your loving shoulder too. So I donate the our time so that you can read some of the ''RED'' words to her insted. In the meantime, I will try to see what I can do with the instructions that you were so kind to give me.CrazyAnglican wrote:porkenbeans wrote:I will be more than happy to dispute every one of your logic disasters, but it will have to be tomorrow.CrazyAnglican wrote:porkenbeans wrote: If I remember correctly it was a study that was done at Cornell, I was quoting a phrase they used within the study.
