Still, each to their own I suppose.

Special kind of bored, more like it - for that tiny amount of cash

I'm not too sure about the 'League of Impoverished Agents' or the 'Association of Right On Conservatives' is part of his agenda, but come the revolution, be sure that they'll be stuck up for

Nearly every contractor has gaps.

Maybe in this one, that was the first and only time, I meant prior to that.
You grabbed hold of my comment about offshoring and turned it into something else, for your own "amusement".

Really is as simple as that and others agreed.

Hey hang on guys - this was my thread to through a strop on and you've stolen it !!!!!

Sorry bud, service back to normal.

I'm done with this clown, for now.
