Bucco....first I am wondering how you can get to these threads so fast!!

Second...I AGREE!

We are on a roll....

I was hoping you would write what you did.....I just thought it was interesting though...

Again...we agree on what we want, what we need and the important things....we just disagree on HOW we are going to get it and who is going to help us....lead us rather....



My grandmother said something to me one time...something I will NEVER forget. I was about 14....my older sister was 15. I was an average student...she was valedictorian...I thought at first it was an insult...but over the years is what the best thing anyone has ever said to me...

My grandmother pulled me aside...she said "Honey, your sister may have all the smarts...but you have common sense...and this will get you much farther at times."

So ofcourse I thought she was telling me I was stupid...or had no brains....but as I got older....I realized that common sense will always prevail...and it has gotten me a lot further!! I love when my smart sister calls me for help! LOL
