Also, NOBODY EVER claimed there were 4 albums that are done. 10 NOBODY has ever claimed that the ball is now in the record companies court. I don't think all this talk is for nothing.

I thought Baz claimed the first & Mysteron claimed the latter hmm

Absolutely. I don't play video games anymore but when I did play football I would sometimes choose to play in the snow.. And take a good running team 16

At first I thought it was a joke... turns out, not so much. Does anyone honestly plan on even visiting that site let alone posting there alot?

No, and I wouldn't think many people would. It's like you said, I don't care what you call it, this is where the posters I recognize & enjoy reading & sharing info are. Why would I leave. To be honest I'm surprised he's starting up another site. It'll be very slow, especially at first until he recruits people from a variety of site. Not necisarily this one.

Sources: Suspected Cop Killer Caught in Miami9 a.m. news conference LIVE on 6abc.com!
by the Action News Team
PHILADELPHIA - November 6, 2007 - Police in Miami have caught the suspected killer of Officer Chuck Cassidy, according to sources. Security camera video showed John "Jordan" Lewis boarding a bus for South Florida during the weekend.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lewis was apparently arrested by U.S. Marshals and FBI agents at a homeless shelter in Miami around 7 a.m. this morning. It was about 10 blocks away from the bus station. Apparently, the bus driver was able to identify him and told authorities.

Police officials tell Action News they will be holding a 9 a.m. news conference at Police Headquarters in Center City.


According to investigators, the 21-year-old John Lewis purchased a round trip bus ticket in Wilmington, Delaware bound for Miami, Florida on Saturday night. Sources said when he arrived in Miami late Sunday night, he tried to cash the return ticket for cash. Lewis argued with the teller, who refused to refund his money.

The FBI had been searching Miami to try to find Lewis. Philadelphia police asked the FBI to add Lewis to its most wanted list.

Action News has also learned that Lewis worked at a Dunkin Donuts at Broad and Erie and at another one, part time, at Rising Sun and Roosevelt Boulevard, just a few doors from his mother's house.

Lewis' former co-workers that talked to Action News all said the same thing: they are stunned. He never struck them as the type of person who could kill someone.

"He didn't seem like the type of person that would do anything to nobody," said Tamara Hayes, a former co-worker.

"He was so nice," Kiani Clark said. "He was really nice. He didn't seem like the type that would hurt a fly."

Locally, investigators recovered two weapons during their search for Lewis on Monday, Commissioner Sylvester Johnson said.

Johnson told reporters during a late Monday afternoon news conference that the weapons were recovered while serving a warrant on an undisclosed location. Sources told Action News reporter Sarah Bloomquist Monday night that police positively identified one gun as Cassidy's 9 mm Glock service semiautomatic taken after the shooting. The second gun does not match one owned by Lewis' mother and missing, but tests are still being done to determine if it is the murder weapon.

Sources also told Action News that Lewis appeared in Philadelphia court last Friday for hearing in an unrelated case, but that was more than a day before Lewis was identified as a suspect.

Police also seized a vehicle as part of the investigation just before 7:00 Monday morning. It is a blue Mercury Grand Marquis. Police were planning to search the car for evidence linked to Cassidy's murder.


A viewing for family and friends of Officer Cassidy will be held tonight starting at 6:00 at Givnish Funeral Home at 10975 Academy Road. A second viewing for the public will be held at the Basilica of Saints Peter and Paul starting at 7:30 am Wednesday followed by a mass at noon. Burial will be private at Holy Sepulchure Cemetery in Cheltenham.

I would agree with you James, and I used to feel that way, but I worked in Customer Service at the Electric Company here & you'd be shocked how much $$ alot of these people owe. Plus, there are currently alot of laws about how & when they can shut off electric, and alot of loopholes for these people to get around it & beat the system. I'm going back 10 years or so but alot of them owe $5,000-$10,000+. Not only that, but we could see their payment history, and they hadn't made 1 payment all year! That's why I said that about not showing effort. Alot of power companies do & have to set up arrangements for these people. If they cannot and are not willing to make something like $50.month then maybe they need to adjust their living conditions & spending.  I remember one time a lady screaming & yelling at me about how she's on welfare & how can she pay her electric bill if she only gets $600.mo of welfare & has 3 kids or something.. I felt bad, there really is no answer, but the very next call was a sweet old lady who was on welfare,and called up to make sure we recv'd her $50 monthly payment. Isn't really fair if one party is responsible & the other is out there getting cable & HBO & buying the latest CD's & stuff.

It wasn't isolated incidences either, I'm talking every day I would speak to these people. You'd be shocked, the majority of them aren't shut off for just missing 3 or 4 months of billing. It happens occasionally, but they're also the one's who eventually ccan either pay to get it back on, or the company makes arrangements for them to do so.

Yeah, No Cure For Cancer was one of the funniest standups I've ever seen. That & Chris Rocks first 2 HBO specials. "Cracker Assed Cracka!!" He broke so many barriers on that first one.

#6808 Re: The Sunset Strip » Favourite Comedy/Comedians » 959 weeks ago

There's a standup Brian Regan who is really funny. He has some stuff on youtube. I'll post it in a bit.

#6809 Re: The Garden » Another really sad story. (this time from my town) » 959 weeks ago

That's trash right there. Ashame for the children to be brought into such conditions.Those parents need some serious counciling or have the 5 month old taken away from them. It just shows a lack of effort. I can understand if someone gets behind on their bills, but smell of feces & urine on your property? That's disgusted.

They really need a structure similar to the NBA where the top 6 teams in each conference make the playoffs.

That's a good point. Maybe something like only the 2 best Divisional winners clinch a birth & homefield & bye week (Patriots NE, GB, Dallas). Then everyone else is a free for all, whoever has the best record gets in. Regardless of your division.
