Congratulations on your approval !! You have waited so long for this great news. :thumbs::thumbs::thumbs:

( And some wonder why I keep praising the Lord )

Don't just open your mouth and prove yourself a fool....put it in writing.

It gets harder the more you know. Because the more you find out, the uglier everything seems.
