Seems from what I read that you have a past tie to some reincarnation/other life/misc of theworks. Might be interesting, I volunteer for The Works, a tech center for kids in Minnesota. As their part time weber, I'm a bit disappointed in the energy I have given their web presence. Hope to expand, then maybe submit it to get a little exposure. But that might take away your claim to fame, which put me in contact with you. So just Hi for now, have a grand one- Larry (612) Cool!

(PAWN) -Alexandria, VA - In a ceremony involving Oliver Nord, Taco Hell, and their sister company, ABC Strip Mall, Inc., Heritage Ohms CEO Richard Laredo displayed the official plan for HxH2000, and he summed it up quite clearly and concisely which surprised a crowd of 11,000 bureaucrats at the George Bush Building auditorium. "Ladies and Germs," he began in true Carnegie-Roberts-Rules form, then he switched style which threw all the forty-dollar- a-cup-coffee-breakers, saying "a house between every other house by the year 2000; and then a house between every house again by 2004. Thank you, I'll now enterprise any questionings you may have." There was a long pause and then a standing ovation. There were no questions and the bureaucrats are now returning to their disrespective states or nations where they will begin implementing the plan immediately. o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o In case you want to know, POGs are o o not made by Proctor and Gamble they o o are brought to you by o o Price, Stern, Sloan, inc. o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o Ocean Spray Ruby Red Grapefruit Juice Drink. ing.: Filtered Water, Marsh Ruby Red Grapefruit Juice from Concentrate, High Fructose Corn Syrup, Grapefruit Juice Pulp Sacs, Citric Acid, Pectin, Natural Flavors, Ascorbic Acid, Cochineal Extract and Carmine.

FDR OKAYS HALLUCINOGENIC LOLLIPOP FOR TREATMENT OF GRUMPINESS. by Washington Postal Correspondant, Sally Squares - special to Prime Anarchist World News. Cancer patients and assorted other grumpy people will soon have a tastier way to treat bad mood: a raspberry-flavored lollipop that delivers a hallucination more potent than morphine. The FDR, (food & drugs & rock-n-roll) approved Actiq (the shelf- name for LSD-29) for patients experiencing sudden, "breakthrough" downers that oral narcotics can't control. Actiq contains fentanyl citrate, which is delivered in a sugar-flavored lozenge held by an attached handle like a lollipop. People pregnant, or allergic to things like rat poison, HCL, or U-238 shouldn't touch the sugar cube part, only the handle. Because of potential for abuse of Actiq - (nicknamed cid) and its dangers of appeal to children - the FDR required it's makers, Abbie Laboratories, a subsidiary of the newly mergered Fizzer-Squibly, to give their word of honor they won't use any Mickey Mouse, Grateful Dead or Ben & Jerry's logos on Actiq. The most interesting side effects include dizziness, nausea, constipation and good vibrations. Doctors will be fully briefed and must agree to only dispense to people who are already on drugs. Patients' families will be warned about side effects; which colors are fresh and which are stale; and one relative must provide a "come-down" tent within two miles of all Actiq consumption. For patients allergic to sugar, Fizzer-Squibly can provide squares on little light blue sheets of paper, which comes with a free pair of FDR scissors with William Benet's picture on the handle. See your doctor for details or your pharmacist for the over-the- counter versions. Not to be taken with Viagra, Testosterones or Test Free, Fizzer-Squibly not responsible for misuse. Calls are just $35 a minute. Operators are standing by. Relatives of hippies not allowed to enter. Limit 4 doses per customer. Some settling, set and setting may occur. SAM.

The part that is called a ponytail is also in danger of getting sucked into the tube and it will peel off all the shielding around the wires - which completes the circuit and will electrocute 15 people in the community, reformat your hard drive and scramble any floppies near your computer. In the event of 15 people dead, Electrolucks, L.L.C. will put new rubber shielding on the wiring at no cost to the consumer. But again, you must call the 800# or hit their webpage.

"Lousy and less," said Miles Standing, chief executrix in charge of executing chiefly. "Look at this lousy loam," he said showing a finger full. "How does one expect us to live on loam like this?" He said had they known they'd receive so little, so late and so lousy, they would've put a call in to Luvett Butter in Luck, Wisconsin. "They have the most best fertilizer in the world," he lamented, we sure could've used their soil this year." Not one to look back, Standing said the increase means retail prices will climb 20 cents for 64-ounce cartons of its top-selling Minute Made Naranjugo. In the rest of the country retail prices will level at 30 cents more a liter. "The walnut juice and raisin juices will taste simply horrible," said Standing. He said they'll likely have to lower those prices and just live with a loss. "Losing means never having to say you're Lipton." ....research question of the week.....

Since it was established in 1946, the US Army School of The Americas has trained thousands of Latin American soldiers. Using rarely seen footage, the program shows how officers who studied at the school are responsible for the deaths of thousands of people. This award-winning video has sold over 10,000 copies. http://www.soaw.org 1-800-227-8523 An aside: Pinochet was NOT trained at SOA. 47 of the 51 people directly under him WERE!!! Pinochet did NOT kill Victor Jara, the famous folksinger and composer of ballets. Two of his close friends DID!!! Sound like anyone you know? As is usual, the case (both upper and lower) we end with a poetry. This is called AWAY by marco capelli The wind has a way of Putting everyone's weapons Away. The disarming wind.
