Bubblicious write, Russell and an excellent example of dodoitsu!..Grape is also my top flavor....It's time to slow down and celebrate our King...I know that school has it's obstacles and you will prevail! I sense a strong passion and pride for advancing your education and for this I am soooo excited...Oh, if we could have a cup of coffee I could share with you the countless times I had to call on God for His super hero strength to aid me on finishing a difficult paper or to reset my attitude about the plans He has for me...Stay on track..I will be placing you, brother, in my prayers. :) Phillip. 4:13 baby!

Reminds me of the hit song of yesteryear by Lonnie Donegan. Does it lose its flavor on the bedpost overnight?
