I talked to Lee the other day. What happened to Brian? I've tried to call and email that boy! It seems like he has fell of the face of this earth or something! I really miss chatting with him. I know that his momma is not in the best of health and that takes up his time... But if you see him tell him... "Remember who your friends are!!! and don't forget about us!"

You are very welcome for the add. Hope to get to know you!
