Hey Painter,

First, I haven’t been on the board much this past week or so, I’m sorry if it seems like a life-time ago that I checked in with you. I hope to later. Bad Bob! LOL

Wow...just...wow. You are REALLY on to something here. I have to get back to work now, I had just enough time to get to a few people and noticed some posts in my thread.

I will think about this long and hard. Maybe my IC can help.

God bless you, Painter!

*Hugs*

Bob
