    When I am wrong I would like to Fess up.

    We post on here exposing ourselves to ridicule. Thats part of the game and fun. I will admitt that my decision (which really was not) to purchase a Pro-Heat was the wrong decision, but to buy a AP unit is a very smart, money saving tool. Its just that a tool. That is just one point I wanted...

    I knew of no where else but here to post this

    I know you all have XM, I just got mine and what a year to have gotten it. My team DETROIT TIGERS is on fire the best team in baseball, lowest ERA, and the strongest infield defense in years. This is another reason why the ERA is so low but the pitching is outstanding. Looking forward to...
