European Salon de News, Discussion et Klatsch - 21. May | 109 comments (109 topical, editorial, 0 hidden)

There is no imprinting so deep as having a machine gun pointed in your face while you're in bed, where you tend to wake up at the highest level of fight or flight possible. Being taken away from your life by the stupidest of people is not necessarily the best way to get ahead in the world. It pissed me off no end.

Apparently, i survived.

Re: Locked Up (none / 0)

If the events to which you refer are matters of public record, please give me a link. If you are at liberty to discuss I am all ears.

As the Dutch said while fighting the Spanish: "It is not necessary to have hope in order to persevere."
