I'm running into problems trying to register with a new username. No matter what I try, it will not let anything go through. Most of the time, it just tells me ... |

I'm hoping he eliminates the ban on polar bear furs.
I had a wealthy neighbor growing up and we would visit them on occasion. One of the greatest things was their polar bear rug. It was so soft that I really liked just sitting there on it. |

So if I want to go somewhere to eat, it's a a 70 mile round trip drive. That's too far just to get a ham... |
