Thank you for your research results!
OK I'm trying to process it. I'm a little slow.
I watch Barney all day what do you expect :)
Yes I am childish :D

Yes, when I write heheheh I really am laughing. That's the only time I write it is if I'm laughing. Do you have some good suggestions I could use? I'm not very imaginative. Aparently. HEHEHE..
I'm also a bad speller. Apparently.
Isn't the latest something like baaaawwww or something like that? What do I know? I say hilarious which means I'm in the dark ages. Heck, I even used the word neat in my last post.
LOL
Nice!
