Thanks for all the replies on the questions!! I'll do another one soon.
The other day I deleted the first yahoo! account I ever had. mcsuperskills at yahoo dot com. I've had that pretty much since I started using the internet. But it had become so overrun with junk mail, I quit using it. But, I had to go through the tons of saved messages to see if there were any I wanted to keep. Right off the bat, there were about thirty or forty of those questionnaires (sp?) that you send around to each other, with tons of questions about yourself. I deleted almost all of those, except for the ones from Cami. She's hilarious. But I also found a forward from my friend Jo. She's married to my friend Jamie (Jo is the girl, Jamie is the guy. funny.), and she just moved to Philadelphia from Morocco. Anyways, since it's hilarious and since going to walmart was the only fun thing to do in Milledgeville where we went to college, I though you all should enjoy this.
