if it's bad, Houston is blamed. If it's good, Dallas is praised.

Course it wasn't that way after Kennedy got his head shot.

Didn't he die from aids?

No, I think you're thinking of Max Robinson who used to be on ABC.

He walked out of a John Mellencamp concert when they dedicated a song to all that have been hurt by the Bush administration! When asked about it he said (paraph.) 'his performance wasn't very good anyway, and that comment sent it over the top'
hilarious!

Quayle walked out of a John Mellencamp concert when he dedicated a song to all of those hurt by the Bush Administration. He said the music wasn't very good anyway, and the comment put it over the top.

Of course, I myself would have known not to go to that jerk's concert to begin with (speaking as a Hoosier).

the Fargi 3 rockets (upgraded Kaytushas)

OK, that is one of the things I was hitting and missing on.My brain had just picked up Kaytushas (12-mile) Thank you for your patience in clearing this up for me.

Where is Dimona and why would they target it? I have looked on my map and don't locate it.

Gosh, I don't have tv access right now so haven't seen the drama queen yet, but Shep does look like Scott Peterson from the picture.

Good for him! Always liked Quayle. I thought he was the most perfect VP...

I don't think Bush 41 would care to be a target in a parachute...he learned about that during WWII.
