Ah yes, 96 was my last year of high school, and it
was somewhat after that (actually I heard the news
from a friend who didn't know I was related to the
victim, when sitting at work at 2am tapping away
on the computer!).

Small world, though, a driving newsgroup is the
last place I'd have expected to find someone else
with a connection to the incident!

Grainger ended up buying the startup I was at- what they did played a
very large part in my decision to part company with them ASAP.

Do you have a shred of evidence to support your claim that terrorists
are about to nuke america?? You can't just make stuff up, you idiot.

Screw the alcohol breath test. That's just a scam to raise the price of
cars. What we need is severe penalties for DUI. First time offense
should be permanent loss of drivers license. And if you're caught
driving then it's prison. I'm no coddler.

Gee, you sure as hell have offered a great deal of support and defense
for Ted Kennedy.

At least, until you found out he supported the illegals.

Amazing how you can't decide on anything, and how you try to lie your
way out of previous statements you've made.

No wonder no one wants to have anything to do with you, online or
otherwise. :-)

It must suck to be so pathetic. Tell me, what is it that keeps you
from ending your miserable and valueless life?

Why not? That's all you do. Or did you take your source that Bush was
going to serve three terms to be factual? ROTFLMAO.

You've got to be the king of the retards.

The expense is not the half of it. It's demeaning and insulting, and
the opposite of freedom and of the principle of innocent until proven
guilty.

Are you COMPLETELY stupid? That was an EXAMPLE of why he believes
that. Good grief. THINK!
