I would drop them like a bad habit but it ain't gonna happen. The pro-indi people on the island only make up about 10-15%. I know people who are active in the Pro-independence movement there. their argument that if the US granted their wish they would get even more of my Tax dollars in Aid

If they were to ask for independence I would grant it on one condition though.....No foreign aid. No hand-out for uncle same.

Wade seems to be in good company with millionares like Jeffery Archer: http://www.highbeam.com/doc/1P2-19160124.html

There are lot's of people out there that can't spell (vop!), but to be quite honest, these days I don't think that it's that important, just like mental arithmetic, remember that?

Common sense to me is a far more important character trait. Besides, isn't being allowed to fail considered a personal freedom in the US?

Camel, YOU spell properly for the most part. So obviously it matters to YOU.

Wade has on occasion said some clever stuff, so I know there is a brain in there somewhere, but it just irritates the heck out of me trying to figure what he is saying through all the typo's.

What Wade hasn't figured out yet is you LOOK stupid when you cant spell. It would be rude like spitting when you speak. The thoughts get lost in the laziness.

AS for Jeffrey Archer, if he cant spell, at least his editor can.

You guys don't seriously think that Wade91 is who (what) he claims to be, do you?

That dude is so far undercover that even he doesn't know who he is some days. He might even be The Stig... I'm not sure. But he ain't foolin' me.
