Mike probably is too nice to say anything but geeze man. _______________________________________________________ An 8 dollar driveway boy living in a T-111 shack LOL

Too bad about G Lightfoot but being honest he was not one of my favorite's from back in the day. Just didn't like the tone of his voice. Did like the Edmund Fitz song though.
