Oh, and I apologize to the audience for this lame comeback but wait for history lesson to come at me. Ill actually enjoy giving Leroy a go. Anyway, I can see that we just got off on the wrong foot. < Insert rainbow here with music and hanging basket >

Hey you should get another keyboard because you have some funny characters in that essay of yours. Really, good luck and all. Peace
