OK, fettermuff, that sounds like a believable tale and I'm willing to call a truce. I do think, however, that your initial foray into the world of message-board posting might have been more successful if you had approached it a little differently. Since you say you have followed the boards for a while, I'm sure you are familiar with the posters that appear out of nowhere, initial post something constructive, and then quickly show their true colors. But I'm not the ultimate authority on such things, so I'll give it a rest. Welcome to the board.
That said, i hope your predictions prove to be WAY off the mark, and I also hope that you find a rewarding acting job sooner rather than later, lol.
