“How to ruin your life in several keystrokes”
St. John’s has one of the prettiest urban campuses that I have ever seen. The chapel is great. Apparently a number of St. John’s alumni were killed in the 9-11 treachery and that chapel was funded by some of the families of those killed.
Yeh, that’s the great thing about the Internet - it allows you to say stupid, self-incriminatory things to millions of people all at once! The Post button is forever, kid. But then I guess you figured that one out by now.
Ya cannot fix stupid in Obama’s America.
