appologize for the delay(have this thing called work!)
anyways:

ahh.. I was confused if one semicolon should be used, or two(some say

(thanks for the info on this)

I was torn on what to do with this. part of me said yeah it should stay, 
but then another part of me, said well maybe it was a mistake due to the

I will resend without the above, if there is any others let me know, and 
thank you for the help/info
