Might as well move there and get some benefit out of it.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/36360371/5228297352203546678/comments/default/1943367150307640592'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/36360371/5228297352203546678/comments/default/1943367150307640592'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.sonsofstevegarvey.com/2008/11/connect-four-round-3.html?showComment=1225730579493#c1943367150307640592' title=''/><author><name>QuadSevens</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08475822200657721538</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='09483213212330733286'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.sonsofstevegarvey.com/2008/11/connect-four-round-3.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36360371.post-5228297352203546678' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/36360371/posts/default/5228297352203546678' type='text/html'/></entry></feed>
