I guess the feeling is the Bills will get Jimmy Clausen in the second round. I thought for sure the Bills would go after a QB.

I'm going to hitch the rotory tine cultivator to the tractor and mulch my lawn a few time times, cutting lower each time. Then I will apply seed and feed before finishing with three passes of the lawn roller.

Soon we may have to be calling you Dr. Hellstorm. The question I have is how did you afford even one. I have a 2 year degree and paying for it sucks enough.

well, three phone numbers and 1 transfer later...and I left a voice mail for someone to get back to me.

wish me luck...here's hoping that certification is quick, easy...and most importantly free!

Good luck dude smile
