OUR FREEDOM? The French sacrificed thier lives for OUR FREEDOM?
I do believe that there was a lot of the underground that put thier lives on

we kicked the house painter out of thier country have been largely
ungrateful ever since.
My $0.02 worth.
Go ahead and flame me all you want. I apologize only for the fact that there
is no MV content in this post.
