Cleaning that mess was like turning over stones in Hades!

Did you have to clean it up?

(Sorry for my delayed response. I'm watching "For a Few Dollars More," eating a bowl of Fruit Loops, and FReeping all at the same time.)

That is one rumour.

My favourite theory is similar but not quite the same.

Blair needed support from the grass roots of the party - the far left. They are anti war and pro anything socialist. They were horrified that Jack Straw invited Condi to his home town constituency, Straw had no real choice in this because she invited him to her home town during a visit to States. The left went ballistic, Blair had to pacify them so Straw was the fall guy for that, also possibly for being too close to Brown and also making noises that we would never do anything militarily in reference to Iran.

So all in all there were many factors IMHO.

Of course they are all speculation and none of them may be right.

I love Spaghetti Westerns!!!

Yes, practically everyone who works in the store had to contribute to the cleanup. It was horrible.

Yes, he did a superb job last weekend.

Where is he now? Besides contributing financially to FR, he did an outstanding job on the thread, and he's a great host as well.

Major cartilage clean-up. No replacements, thankfully. His younger brother had both ACL & MCL replacement (about as serious as it gets for knees).

Certain medical conditions seem to run in families.. Knee, back, sciatia problems.. High BP, diabetes.. I have seen the trends in a lot of families...parents are wise to note these things & do what is necessary diet/conditioning wise to help their youngster minimize the onset etc.
