Additional comments: I heard a saying once that it's the quiet ones you gotta watch out for, and I think that's absolutely true. I'm the kind of person that you wouldn't notice if you passed me on the streets, but once you start getting to know me, you'd be surprised. Also, you could talk to me every day for ten years and you still wouldn't really know me.
