Just when I think I got something figured out, they change it and I'm lost again. Sometimes I don't realize it is changed either and that is really confusing. I did learn a while back that a lot of things is listed backwards. Sometimes tho with some options, it seems to reverse it and throws me for a loop. Sometimes I wonder.

I just hope the juggs, natural ones, stay the same. O_O Dale :-) :-)
