I voted for:

"Who the hell can predict anything with you? LOL!!"


Who could have predicted that you would have come up with a "flipping" poll

Flip Platty

I voted for "Yes you will", however I would say you must keep it as that watch stood with you during your tough time
Its a lucky one for you, I must say, so JJ I would suggest you to keep it forever
