Hmmm... maybe tomorrow. MannyGoldstein Feb 2015 #33

You'd love it. NYC_SKP Feb 2015 #34

I agree, this is a great post and all of Manny's 'fans' deserve a chance to comment on it! sabrina 1 Feb 2015 #42

You guys are Manny enablers, encouraging him to continue this madness. rhett o rick Feb 2015 #53

If you think you can "teach him a thing or two", you are giving him waay too much credit. rhett o rick Feb 2015 #57
