    I had an Italian girlfriend once.
    Still kind of have her. Afraid to get rid of her.

    Man, you still have her?? Pick a spot and bury her finally!

    Rap it happened to me for a second.

    My computer asked me to log in and it said I was “Hot Soup” NOT Endersshadow

    But I’m fine for now on my phone...

    @KennethSwauger .... can you delete the username Hot Soup since it’s also somehow registered to me...

    I think the OLD POLK SITE automatically assigned that name that to me when I registered my products on the site years ago....

    Dang, now I don't know what to do.
    Are the Russians involved in this?

    On the other hand, maybe @tonyb really is back, but only because @EndersShadow paid the ultimate price.

    Nope... don't worry. Cement shoes are made while you watch. Tony may even let you mix it yourself if you ask nicely. that way he won't have to bring along a witness.
