i saw a report where they were unveiling the next model of war plane. it was surrounded in brightly colored lights and shined like a brand new dime. all that was missing were the lovely ladies in skimpy gown lounging around and caressing the nose cones like it was a big fat phallic symbol.
ps my brother is in the process of leaving bagland. he iss one of the peripheral americans there who are armtwisted/blackmailed into being there under threat of losing their job. forget about terrorists taking your freedom, your safety, your life, your home. the american government will take care of that for you if you dont do what they say.
shalom.
Jesus was a righteous dude. even if i don't agree with how the resulting millenia of history has interpreted his life.
Jimi Hendrix was a very smart man.
the war criminal seemes to be forcing himself big time to have some "quiet time" aka Photo Op
melody: i think someone put him in TIME OUT and he's thinking about all the things he's done.

I want to punch certain people sometimes, i do...
I am wondering if Christianity will recover from the PR disaster that is George W. Bush.
Prof,
Are you aware that you are using a picture of Ralph Reed?
He was, at one time, the leader of the Christian Coalition.
Fortunately that organization is nearing moral and financial bankruptcy.
i thought prof looked familiar!
Does anybody know whether Mr Reed is indeed involved in a war on gamblin' nowadays? I am not a US resident, so I only use his mug because I like his smirk.
Okay, I will admit it: I am Ralph Reed and since my last sojourn in the spotlight I have joined the Democratic Party, because I thought that, in the interest of balance in American politics, more people who are to the left of Joe Lieberman should join the Democratic Party. That is how I came across this lefty blog.
I loved Mc Govern's quote..and used it on my own blog.
Jimi Hendrix and Jesus got it right in this case!
