Demba,

Talking about man enough.  You are a joke little twerp.  Your post referred
to me without calling my name so i was only following your cue.  But since
you've named me now.  Let us take from their.  I HAVE CALLED YOU A LIAR AND
HYPOCRITE BEFORE AND IF NECESSARY I WILL DO SO.  Do not worry about that.
