Well done, Wendell. My hubby just said "he's lost more than I weigh".

And you know what, you have lost more than I weigh, too! That makes me so proud of both of us!!!

Heyas Wendell!

Welcome to the home of losers, winners, dorks, braniacs, nerds, pesimists, optomists, comedians, tender hearts, smart asses, do gooders, underachievers, over thinkers, newbies and oldies.

How do we all manage to get along? Well we have one very imporant thing in common. We're all hot as hell and we know it! *looks around at everyone else* What? Ohh... sorry, Wendell, we are all on the same journey as you! *whispers* But we're also all hot.. and we know it! *grins*

Welcome to LBT, make yourself at home.
