Thank you all for your comments.  I hope I don't disappoint you.

You probably already know that I don't talk as much as Krissy, so you may not hear from me two to three times a day, but I wanted to tell my side of the story.  With Krissy's colorful use of adjectives she tends to embellish or over-exaggerate part of her story.

I don't need to beat around the bush, I'm just gonna tell it like it is. 

Well, that's the way it should be, Karl. You and Kris each have your own perspective on things, and I for one think it's great that I'm going to get to read both sides of each story.

Give it some time, Karl, and you'll soon be as addicted to this place as Kris and the rest of us are. Have a great weekend!

So, tell us about the peanut butter cookies, Karl. Kris says they didn't turn out quite right and that the kids weren't crazy about them. What's your side of the story?

And when you're finished telling us about the cookies, please oh please tell us about the bus prank you played on Kris!

Well, for someone who's going to "tell it like it is" Karl, you sure aren't saying much! C'mon... Tell us about the cookie fiasco and the bus prank!
