I'll say my thing and let it go as well. Julie never asks for advice yet

want their advice.  I myself prefer to not receive unsolicited advice -
hardly an unusual thing in life.

'advice'. Boggles the mind!

*Ozgirl* wrote. I did not quote you, not did I refer to you in any way.
That's the way these discussions work, they branch off.

  If you want to bring up something else, i.e. that your point was
missed, then do just that, but don't quote, or at least don't quote
unrelated responses.
