Like I always tell people, consider the "Source." (a wanna be rag at best) Paul Lammertsma said on 03/24/07 @ 04:40 AM: Sheesh, "Jake", don't be so edgy! Nathan said on 03/24/07 @ 01:04 PM: I don't know about you, but it seems like "The Eye" is using UB posts as a resource for easy stories Jake... yoleen said on 03/25/07 @ 09:42 AM: would you like me to take up the issue with "the venerable Aaron Switzer" the next time I see him?
