He seems very respectful of the women and he sure appears to be a genuine sweetheart.Janicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16989466282881739783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7012958329981212922.post-89036940292166202009-01-29T09:45:00.000-07:002009-01-29T09:45:00.000-07:00This is so well written Rana!
