ReplyDeleteI was curious how long it would take someone to notice that line.
ReplyDeleteI will reveal it within a day or two.
Can't wait to hear! Don't make us wait!!
ReplyDeleteI have been hearing some things (good things for a change) about the guy running in the 8th district-Gailen Porter. The name sounds familiar and I was wondering if anyone had heard anything about him. Like I said, I have heard a lot of positives about him but want to know more. Any thoughts?
