Hi Ido! ... OK. Sorry to hear that. Do you know what were the reasons for you receiving such bad grades? You seem like a smart guy, regardless of your other...
Hi All, Wow, this one even has me coming out of the bleachers, so I'll give my 2cents on the issue. I believe it is fairly easy for me to comment, as I had ...
