The Truth Behind The Geek (*creative liberties taken for the benefit of the reading audience)
James would just like to say that "If you don't go to greenbranchcommunications.com you will probably live a shallow life with inferior distance education tools. James, who is a programmer, a security guru, and a lover of all things frappuccino, was once stalked by Derek Smart for a little while, but he supposes everyone has. James, like many others, was very proud of the day he finally got a link accepted by the mods at Fark.
