RE: Last edited by Codreanu : Today at 01:06 AM. Reason: mispelled stationEry (better now, no one?)

I am assuming (but that could be an unwise thing, since I don't want to be an ass, and I know you don't want me to make an ass out of you) that the misspelled mispelled is an intentional funny...... but if not -- well, i guess it is now scratchin' time for my arm. Hope your pin is primed and ready!

guess you haven't been having too many of those lately, what with the awkward stage of growth your hair now finds itself in, even preventing an up-to-date photo - i guess due to the embarrassment factor?

also, i think maybe you forgot this for your list, since we know you find it pleasant
