    Remove or Cable?

    Hey Ya I know what you mean but I felt it wouldn't achieve the subordinating effect we were looking for.

    What type of lnsurance do ya'll carry?

    In my experience if you dont have kids the dental coverage for your self is not worth the premium! Average person sees the dentist very little. Kids need alot of work so then it is worth it if you got the little ones! Later John
