I clicked-through from the "Deckside Thoughts" blog and read a few of your posts.<br /><br />I liked your bio other than being a Carolina Panther fan. LOL. But you can just as easily make fun of me - I'm a Steelers fan living in Cleveland.<br /><br />Anyway, I enjoyed your blog and wanted to comment.
