Pat,

On the front page there is a picture by a one, Ryan Coleman... any relationship or mere coincidence?

Superman, Frank Rossi wants to buy you a watered-down drink at Geppetto's and discuss Superman's message board use of punctuation :-)  Frank Rossi had to read that four times before Frank Rossi understood everything in those ten words:

"[Ryan Coleman is Pat's] brother[,] if I'm correct[, and he's] also a publisher on the website[.]"

[Pat Coleman]

Ryan is indeed my brother, and he's our photo editor and chief programmer.

The Rev was afraid that he was the only one who finds himself typing in the third person.  The Rev has to stop himself several times a day.

This isn't quite the same, but I occasionally find myself typing www.d3football.com into links on NBCSports.com when I'm working my full-time job.

Except that could be disastrous if I didn't catch myself.

JT does the third person thing in real life on occasion.  Usually brings other LL characters into the conversation.  Last week he said, "JT thinks that The Rev. was right when he said....." in mixed company.  Quizical looks all around until FMJT said," Oh that's just his imaginary friends on that d3football.com thing. They talk in third person about stupid stuff." 

To which JT replied, "The Great Pumpkin is real, he helped me write the Hobart pre-game story."  All the posters from the Liberty League are real, goddammit!!!!"

JT: [satisfied smile.  If FMJT is going to make JT it look like he talks/posts to imaginary people, JT's going to flip the switch on her.]

Note: Most of these people work in academia (college level). About 28-32 years old.  Except for one or two doods, most are a bunch of stiffs. And they are so smart that they don't realize when JT is F'ing with them.  We see them around the holiday's for dinner and drinks cause one of the chicks is a very good friend of FMJT.  Otherwise FMJT couldn't stand these people either.

War, politics, sports, etc., JT loves ripping holes in their arguements.  JT actually reads books and stuff, so he's up on things. 

One of the books JT highly recommends to the LLPP is "Confessions of an Economic Hit Man."  He read it on the cruise. It goes into how the U.S. with the help of big corporations go about screwing over 3rd world countries economically.  It happens something like this:

A Halliberton [or other such company] goes into 3rd world country to "help it modernize".  The Halliberton economics team analyzes the country for [electronic power] to bring electricity to all the people.  Shows Mr. [dictator, president, premere] a big (unrealistic) growth in GNP.  US then offers billions in loans on the condition that an American company build the power plants.  Money flows right back into the US.  3rd WC defaults on the loans.  US then goes to Mr. Dictator... OK we need [military base, oil production etc] if you want to stay in power.

For Saudi Arabia... they had plenty of cash but no infrastructure.  The US helped Saudi Arabia so that the Saudi's would be tied to the US oilwise.  Tried to do the same thing with Saddam [would have made him richer that he already was] but Saddam was too crazy to play ball, otherwise Iraq would have been Saudi Arabia part II.

Then it basically ties every war after WWII to economic hit men, big business and money.  Interesting reading.  JT knew a lot of that went on, but not to the exent revealed in the book.

Frank, I cannot post in the Daily Dose. I know you can though. You may want to nominate TA for that "Big Time" thing as he was a Faces in the Crowd in SI.

Where is Gro, LD & JU?  Are they MIA in Miami?  May have to call CSI...

['gro]

Gro has returned from his mantastic mancation in MAN-ami. Gro's memory, like your uncle's socks, have huge holes in it. Gro's hearing is also coming back to normal after a night on the town in south beach.

Gro will post some more after gro runs a few things by LD and the legal department.

Johnny U... where were you sitting at the game? Can you believe that stopped serving alcohol in the 3rd quarter?

[Regulator]

It's ok Gro, Reg blacked out the other night and bought this off ebay.



MR wasn't too impressed

[Jonny Utah]

Wow.

Gro, I was up in section 426 behind the corner endzone next to about 3 good fights.  And 3rd quarter?  The frickin bars are open untill 4am and they have 3-1 specials (thats another story) and they cant sell booze at the game after the 3rd quarter?

Friday night is still comming to me Gro, as bits and pieces are still floating in and out of my mind. I can vaguely remember some chick pouring drinks into my mouth from the bar (which I guess you had to pay for), and then off to harrassing some other poor girl while pounding drinks by myself in the corner...

The Rev would find it amusing if JT would start calling FMJT "FMJT" to her face.

"JT thinks FMJT should go with him to Home Depot."

"Who?"

"FMJT...that's you."

"Oh. It's your silly football thing again."

"It's not a silly football thing, FMJT, this is official Liberty League Post Patterns Incorporated lingo, baby-san."

"Baby-san? Have you been talking with The Rev again?"

The Rev wishes he had a FMRev to drive up the wall with LLPP talk.

The Rev has heard good things about this book also.  The Rev further recommends "Charlie Wilson's War."
