Mark has commented on Gonzalez's book a while back but for some reason I just can't find the time to read as much as you guys do!!!<BR/><BR/>Hope all is well and looking forward to your next post.<BR/><BR/>Remy<BR/>TLC '08Remy, Esq.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14217678176623551341noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4133669828685820071.post-20402911949301808212008-08-08T17:53:00.000-05:002008-08-08T17:53:00.000-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Remy, Esq.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14217678176623551341noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4133669828685820071.post-33936117818430801002008-08-08T14:00:00.000-05:002008-08-08T14:00:00.000-05:00Thanks for the comments.

The truth is if I would have arrived a few seconds later I might have seen it just like the lady did and acted the same way. <BR/><BR/>I wish I could blame stuff like this on "those people" but I've been one of "them" before too.
