    I just wanted to let everyone know that I DID NOT order any Emo gear today and therefore will not be able to report anything when I don't receive it.

    In that case, thanks for nothing.

    Ya know, there was one thing about Cliff that I had to respect. He never whined to JB or Al about the beat downs he got or anything else for that matter, which is a helluva lot more than can be said for some here today.

    No Jesse, he just whined to all of US, which was just as annoying!:mad:

    He and several others that are gone are NOT missed. (At least not by me.)
