The quiz is not important but that is no reason to do it wrong. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

It is just to get you thinking about how you can do anything if you are willing to suffer and stick with it. We all know this is true and we all have done it. And it seems the more often we attempt it and practice being gritty the better we get.

Sorry for being so gritty about this post I can't help it. lol
