    Been a while

    Its been a while since I've been on. Ive been sick for the past few days and doing other things a while beforehand. What the Heck happened to Stangnet?!? I rarely see anyone I used to know, or at least, used to see. And who is Xanax? The guy seems like he's got issues. :rolleyes: Anywho...

    Electrical Problem?
