Hello Everyone!

Thanks Tom! I have never wanted to be a loser so much in my life!

Tom, just wondering if you ever noticed I write Losers' Bench rather than Loser's bench. I am a grammar freak, and with the apostrophe AFTER the S in "loser" it includes MANY LOSERS. You do not have to change how you write it, I , like I said am a grammar freak from WAY BACK in high school 100 years ago LOL

 Kim,

Thanks for the correction. I'm terrible at my grammer (and my grandpa). Will make a mental note in the future so I don't look like a losers ... D'OH!!

Like I said, Tom, was just an observation from someone who is sometimes too hung up on grammar....have a great day!
