Isn't there some law about "inciting violence?" Doesn't that imply that, according to law, violence can be provoked?

I don't know hat I am trying to say.

Geez, and the last episode with all the combat couldn't even bring the show back from the slump of the previous 2 episodes.

I'm also getting tired of seeing only crazy or sad Marines.

This show is not very good.

BY ZEUS! THE VERSION OF CLASH OF THE TITANS YOU DIDN'T SEE By Devin Faraci It's obvious that Clash of the Titans isn't the movie it's supposed to be.

1. I think he was coming to terms with his heritage. "Taking the best of both."

5. Maybe Io was a special case because she was also a demigod... wasn't she? I thought she said that.

I am behind on LOST, Heroes, Burn Notice, House, etc. For the most part I don't even care about movie rentals... I do pay per view once every 1 or 2 months when there is something not coming t...

Got a call last night from a collection agency asking when I was going to pay for the $2k in cell phones and Blackberrys I bought in Douglasville, Georgia a few months ago. The person had a fake ID and used my SSN, with my same birthday but 15 years younger. In spite of it being Georgia I'm sure TR...
