One thing struck me instantly. His brother denied, in so many words, that George was patrolling the neighborhood.
Ah, "slut." A compact little word, forceful even in the way it sounds, starting out with a hissing sibilant and pushing off of the tongue through the L and U, and then that nastily crisp T. "Slut." Say it a few times out loud. Roll it around in your mouth. "Sssslut." "Sss&he …

Bonnie Rait and John Prine did the premier version of Angel From Montgomery but this cover version is, in my opinion, every bit as good as the original. In some ways better, not over produced or over hyped.

Hi Wheel, thanks for joining the group! Can't wait to see your seeds on there, it's ok if they aren't too pertinent, just a good religious discussion is all anybody needs.

No offense taken. I do the same to everybody else and hardly feel any remorse about it at all ever. But I must admit that I do try to steer things toward a couple core actions which I believe deserve focus. Namely, preparing people for the RNC Protest and also working towards impeachment of Bush. We all should have enough information to know that SOMETHING needs to be done and so I try to promote courses and methods of action which I feel many people could possibly support if they aren't already. So if I ever comment or post a link on one of your seed it will probably be for those purposes. No offense and none taken, activists should work towards promoting each other -- and voting up articles or commenting on them increases visibility. Cheers!
Found a reference. The earliest article I found was an Iranian Press Service dated Dec. 2001. iran-press-service.com is the web address article should be listed under israel_iran_nule_threat_301201.htm
