Tamson Feb/16/09 02:06Hi everyone. I know that you believe that you understood what you think I said, but I am not sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant. I am from Lebanon and learning to read in English, give true I wrote the following sentence: "Tired of working for someone else? Self management starting a business of your own is going to." With best wishes :), Tamson.
