So I've been told. LOL!

But if what I've seen posted by my accuser is an example of "corn", I don't want it or need it.

BTW, because of a personal email I got, I feel the need to clarify that the things I have said on this thread have nothing to do with the thread or what is contained therein. These are my opinions based on my experiences and nothing else.
