Gee, you know, I'd rather that the USCG sticker meant you listend to the Coastie, insted of talked with the Coastie. : )
: ) those, BTW aren't meant in the sickeningly sweet cute emoticon world around here. I use them so people can attach a joking manner to my posts instead of possibly reading the wrong intent into them. ; ) usually means I am poking fun at you, but not in a mean way.

I won't lie to you, and I won't blow smoke up your backside. 2x4's don't seem to work on you, so I'll do my best to refrain, if you try your best at this. Deal?
I mean what do you have to lose that isn't already gone right now? : )
