And you're proud of that?

only 200 a year?

We have a circus section, and since this topic doesn't fit in the GXP/Northstar forum, off to the lounge it goes.

Discuss - that was far from a discussion
This is the 2nd best place for the material that was posted in that topic. I'd say do some reading and learning before you jump right in and start silly topics. Just my advise. Take it and grow or leave it. You wont impress car people with storys of abuse and disrespect. listen - - - - - - - -

I need everyone to calm down right now please.

This is unnecessary and clean up the direction of this thread or it will be locked.
