Bruce Schmeck Posted April 9, 2010 Report Share Posted April 9, 2010 I think you are wasting valuable resources that could better be spent on others who do appreciate the finer things in life. ( Like Jake for instance.) I'd quit trying to reach out to him and just tell him to DROP DEAD! But that's just me. I'm not very PC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
