That's even more awful. It       always seemed like a smart idea to run a business in a big city, but not       anymore.               RL> AT> We've got to fight for our freedom every day.        RL>         RL> That's always been the case.

We need to pack our cars full of smart people       every election.              --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A49 2023/04/30 (Windows/64)        * Origin: JoesBBS.Com, Telnet:23 SSH:22 HTTP:80 (1:342/201)       SEEN-BY: 105/81 106/201 128/187 129/14 305 153/7715 154/110 218/700       SEEN-BY: 226/30 227/114 229/110 112 206 300 307 317 400 426 428 470       SEEN-BY: 229/700 705 266/512 291/111 292/854 320/219 322/757 342/200       SEEN-BY: 342/201 396/45 460/58 633/280 712/848 902/26 5075/35       PATH: 342/201 200 229/426           |
