Hey, hey, B-H-O,
How many more have got to go?
For the love of the FSM, God, YHWH, Buddha, Allah, Zeus, Madame Pele, et al, can we get out of Iraq NOW?!?
I'm singing your tune, Different Anonymous.
...just about every week, no matter how few, there's almost always at least one from California and one from Texas.
Big states, I know, but still, it's a bit much.
It was nice of them to acknowledge the passing of Gary Papa who battled fiercely with prostate cancer but lost the battle on Friday. Great sportscaster and a great guy. All of Philly will miss him.
