The link: http://www.lse.co.uk/ShowbizNews.asp?Code=YV124368Y&headline=steve_irwin_attacked_by_animal_rights_group

A quote for the lazy: "PETA spokesman Dan Mathews said: 'He made his career out of antagonising frightened wild animals, and that's a very dangerous message to send to young children.'"

They made the comment just days after he was killed. Indecent? Acceptable? Do you agree that Steve Irwin exploited animals?

Please don't say "I LOVE STEVE!!!" or anything like that. If you do, you will be reported for not answering the question.

If I started up the osama Bin Laden fan Club witha $5.00 sannual subscription per membership, do you think I would get a full listing of all his sympathisers and supporters, which I could then sell or hand over to the US government so they could go around each and every members home and shoot them?

With such easily available news on TV, radio etc and the printed media chasing readers with gossip and scandal, can they survive as an inky and energy-guzzling alternative to their competitors?

I know tobaccos are very addictive substance so when I see someone who is old and still smoking I can understand cuz back then 50s -70s cigarettes weren't consider to be so dangerous but today I just find it ridiculous when I see people smoke especially now that it's confirmed that it kills you and linked to all types of cancers, now even HIV! (link below) But the stupidest part about smokers is that they go out of their way to pay for it!

My mother purchased a car for my sister to drive for work and sis agreed to pay notes & insurance. (1st mistake...) My sister then stiffed her on the agreed monthly payments for 6 months, and failed to cover the car with full-coverage insurance...Guess next!
New car, uninsured & now totalled. As an added bonus, my sister used the tollway without the proper tag and ran up $2600 in camera fines running the EZTAG lanes. The authorities are telling my mother she is responsible because the plates comeback in her name. My mother cannot go to jail for something my sister did! She is elderly, and lives over 80 miles from the occurances. What can we do??? Please anyone with good advice, Help me keep my Mother out of jail!

Subject: Denzel Washington, and

Brooks Army Medical Center


Don't know whether you heard about this

but Denzel Washington and his family visited

the troops at Brook Army Medical Center , in

San Antonio , Texas (BAMC) the other day. This

is where soldiers who have been evacuated from

Germany come to be hospitalized in the United

States, especially burn victims. There are some

buildings there called Fisher Houses. The Fisher

House is a Hotel where soldiers' families can stay,

for little or no charge, while their soldier is staying

in the Hospital. BAMC has quite a few of these houses

on base, but as you can imagine, they are almost filled

most of the time.

While Denzel Washington was visiting BAMC, they gave

him a tour of one of the Fisher Houses. He asked how

much one of them would cost to build. He took his check

book out and wrote a check for the full amount right there

on the spot. The soldiers overseas were amazed to hear

this story and want to get the word out to the American

public, because it warmed their hearts to hear it.


The question I have is why does:

Alec Baldwin,

Madonna,

Sean Penn and

other Hollywood types

make front page news with their anti-everything

America trash and Denzel Washington's Patriotism

doesn't even make page 3 in the Metro section of

any newspaper except the Local newspaper in San

Antonio .


























A true American and friend to all in uniform!




This needs as wide a distribution

as we can create.


GOD BLESS YOU DENZEL

FOR YOUR PATRIOTISM

The "pope, and all infidels, should know that no Muslim, under any circumstances, can tolerate an insult to the Prophet (Muhammad). ... If the West does not change its stance regarding Islam, it will face severe consequences," it said.


DISGUSTING....that place should be wiped off the map.

Completely disgusting people.

Any muslims want to defend their gross ideology and devilish faith?
