See, I never liked that Seinfeld show, except for a few episodes. And now I can use this to justify it. hehheheh
This website, and it’s resouces, has been invaluable to me. You guys shoud REALLY post your address, or a comment, in the comment boxes on YouTube when you put something on here, cause I am ASTOUNDED at the lack of historical understanding of race that I see when i see people comment on things. Hey, you could hire me to do it!!!!! I would LOVE to work for you guys.
