on a completely different topic, are we going to see photos of the newly painted rooms?

everyone in the office was full of "I told you so"s when I told them that you guys had issues the first few years too. Justin didn't even want to buy PowerSchool, but oh well, now it's his problem to fix it!

As for pictures of the painted rooms - why settle for pictures... stop over anytime!!!! But there are a few pictures pat has loaded up to the azteca site:
