[Rhodes22-list] Gas in TN-Brad

Dear Brad & Elle;

Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall soon learn that no good deed
goes unpunished. Thanks anyway.

Brad, what the heck is a Bo?  Remember I'm relatively new around here.

As for "He who shall not be named", I guess he doesn't appreciate my sense
of humor.  For the sake of everyone, especially you two, I'll leave him out
of my future witty and entertaining remarks.

Besides, look at the bright side, Ed has stopped calling me a "fellow
traveler" and now just calls me a "neo-marxist". At some level you have to
admire a guy like that.  It's dogged, unrepentant, persistant, paranioia
like that which has given us the last eight years of "W" and his sidekick
"Deadeye Dick" Cheney. 

I'll give you one thing, even McCain/Palin has got to be an improvement over
what we have now.

I've been to  NAS Meridian, Brad , but never to Biloxi.  A riverboat casino
sounds like a better place to make money than the market.

Best,

Ben C.
