Re: Marine Depot

I was told that thousands compete for first place, there is very little competition for second place, so take it easy on your self and go for second place.

Re: Marine Depot

They have, but if I hadn't studied my bank account statement closely I would never have found and and I doubt that Marine Depot would have notified me out of the blue.

Are you kidding, sue a bank. That is as hilarious as someone saying they know a honest lawyer, an honorable judge, or a righteous cop.
