Do you really think he'd look better with it grown out to a 6 inch 'fro? [/QB] Hey, I resemble that remark. My hair's starting to get alittle scarce on the top, but I ain't cutting nuthin!

A woman doctor who's a neighbor of Frampton's ran for Congress and stated that the median income in the U.S. was something like $600,000 a year! When a local radio host challenged her on-air about that, she said, "You'd better check your figures." Of course she lost, which means there still are at least a FEW people who can think. A post-election analysis said she lost because she was "out of touch with the masses." "Ya THINK?" :eek: | ||
