[Rhodes22-list] Reintroduction

[Ben Schultz]

We are overdue for some angry -- or at least passionate rants.  Thoughts on
midterm elections?  Sarah Palin's book tour?  Did dinosaurs really exist?
Do you prefer Bicardi to Mount Gay?  Isn't anyone at least keeping their gas
tank in the lazerette?

Watching and waiting from BR,

Ben
