Default My apologies

My apologies. I don't like the political bs at all, and I should not have responded to Joe's post.

Please accept my apology.

I hadn't seen this thread go off track. All fixed now. All political crap taken out, name inserted for the person starting it. Next person making a political comment in this thread gets suspended. Have a nice day.
