I have been advised that I should explain my use of language in a previous post. The use of the word african was not in any way meant to be rascist, but in fact was a corruption of the word freaking. As my sister yells "Bad Word!!!" in your ear every time you say something like crap, the guy I work with, my sister and I decided that that was an appropriate subsitute. I appologize just in case somebody else ever does read my blog. HA!
