If you want to hear doubters just listen to the media, if you want believers just read this message board. And after you do that, you’ll still have to wait 3 months to see it, either way.And if the believes are right they’ll say it was pretty obvious months ago, while the doubters make excuses or ignore what they had said. And vice versa.And as Sinatra said: I never let it get me down, cause this fine old world keeps spinning around. ~ max ~“The consciousness of good intentions disdains ambiguity.” - Alexander Hamilton, The Federalist Papers by Elvis 4 years 10 months ago Total posts: 38457 Joined: Mar 28 2015 Los Angeles Administrator Re: Wherefore art thou, Gurley?
