Just commenting as an innocent bystander... where is the honor in bragging
that your average plunder is 330,000.00, and that you've never failed to
plunder? Another question Lynda, do you wear an oversized sportscoat with
all the question marks and exclamation points printed on it like the guy on
latenight tv who can get all these unused grants/loans/handouts? If not,
what's the difference?
