I read all postings that are posted because I think to myself, Maybe, just maybe this might be my crack on my brickwall, for all I know it could be one of those big balls that knock the wall completely down. ----------------------------------------------- I agree. Sometimes that is all the info we have! Go ahead and delete them if you wish, but I read them all, because just one little blurb may lead me to a gateway through the brick wall.

I reponded earlier to this post and because there was no location or dates it's quite possible that my Minnie is not the same one. I just know that there are alot of very kind people out there that have responded to my vague requests that I had very little info on and I have hit the jackpot. I agree that all specifics should be included with postings but don't pass up that small chance that someone could be out there with your info if your just making you requests on names. Those needles are all out there and someone has them!!! Lori --<--<({@ DEBBIE @})>-->-- http://community.webtv.net/jmhall1/COULDTHISBEMYHALL
