I see the humor in your list and it made me laugh, but I certainly don't think any of it is true.<br /><br />Hope that helps.Eric Norenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14648635662703229678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6732615.post-39476348498728676962011-12-07T10:06:04.205+11:002011-12-07T10:06:04.205+11:00HR, Now you've really gone and done it...
