Although I do not know you personally, I have read your insightful posts on
this list. I wanted to extend my congratulations, and I am sure that you will

My mind is far from made up on this issue (I was the guy who as a Twin
Cities Reader reporter publicized some less-than-savory connections in the

I just got back from Aldi's. It was packed. Very
different from any grocery store I have ever been in.
Eggs were .35/dozen and butter was 1.25.
As someone who does not smoke, I am offering my opinion. As reading
thru the posts today I saw someone had the tagline www.smokeoutgary.org

The saddest thing about Dyna's post to me is the assumption that only
GLBT members of our community would show up to pay their respects to
