PURPLE PEOPLE EATER
Posted On 01/25/2009 22:43:38 by CrockPotPatty
I had the pleasure of reading a writer who has grown since 2005 from a very angry, bottled up firecracker that was ready to explode; to a more controlled and enjoyable writer. In 2005, his anger alienated his audience. Today he shows great promise and warmth. Embrace me.       Catchy phrases like:
"No Currency Left to Buy the Big Lies".  He describes the sea of change in this way; “some blue light, tectonic plate shifts, a sea change,... Read More
