And is it also not possible that OP has a different IP address, or location even?
Perhaps he/she is mobile?

Continued bump

Strange how all the interest died down on this....or it's merely being hushed up even more.

I just read today that there is now increasing seismic activity in the Bayou Corne area, just NW of the sinkhole. The article was on Rense.com.

Let the reader understand: I will never go back to Blue BAYOU, there will be no place for the Children to play soon. May as well eat RICE dogs from RICE Dog 7.

I am DEPUTY Dawg. Boss says can't say much, BIG BOSSES won't tell anyone THE TRUTH. But good people always find a workaround. Avoid the censors, no need for a V-chip here.

Please think hard about this. Remember things MUST get worse before they get better. I'm always at HOME when I make ASSUMPTIONS, but sooner or later you can NEVER go home again.

Much love people. And pray always.

Don't make assumptions about Muslims, let's understand why Muslims do what they do, by looking at their Islamic beliefs:

Question:

Does Islam command that those who insult the religion should be put to death?

Summary Answer:

Under Sharia, those who insult Muhammad or Allah are to be put to death. So are those who desecrate the Qur'an, or commit other acts of blasphemy. This tradition began with Muhammad, as recorded in the Hadith and by his biographers. There is also a Qur'anic basis for it.

The Qur'an:

Qur'an (6:93) - "Who can be more wicked than one who inventeth a lie against Allah?" (Apparently not the adulterer or others for whom death is proscribed).

Qur'an (33:57) - "Lo! those who malign Allah and His messenger, Allah hath cursed them in this world and the Hereafter, and hath prepared for them the doom of the disdained"

Qur'an (33:61) - [continues from above] "Accursed, they will be seized wherever found and slain with a (fierce) slaughter."

From the Hadith:

Bukhari (59:369) - This recounts the murder of Ka'b bin al-Ashraf, a Jewish poet who wrote verses about Muslims that Muhammad found insulting. He asked his followers, 'Who will rid me of this man?' and several volunteered. al-Ashraf was stabbed to death while fighting for his life.

Bukhari (3:106) - "The Prophet said, "Do not tell a lie against me for whoever tells a lie against me (intentionally) then he will surely enter the Hell-fire."

Bukhari (4:241) - Those who mocked Muhammad at Mecca were killed after he had retaken the city and asserted his authority.

Perhaps the best evidence that Muhammad punished critics with death are the number of people who were murdered for this very reason shortly after he attained the power to do so. His biographers list numerous citizens who were murdered merely for mockery or criticism, particularly poets - the media artists of the time. One was a mother of five, who had her child pulled from her breast before she was run through with a sword. See Muhammad's Dead Poets Society for more information.

When author Salman Rushdie published "The Satanic Verses," a 1988 novel deemed offensive to Muhammad, the Ayatollah Khomeini pronounced a death sentence that was supported by a majority of Muslims.

In 2006, when a Danish newspaper published cartoons of Muhammad, an Imam (and immigrant to Denmark), traveled back to the Middle East and whipped up hatred that resulted in deadly rioting on three continents. Demonstrators in London held signs reading "Massacre Those Who Insult Islam."

There are literary characters who are named after your 'cryptic gumbo'. It's not the who but the where.

Their are names, like Santa and their are names like Saint....well you figure it out.

Not the who or the why (too late for the why and it doesn't matter now)....the WHERE is where you can find haven.

Or take a stand....The Stand....

Now WHERE was I?

I was just going to post this:

[link to stephenking.wikia.com]

Stuart "Stu" Richard Redman was a man from Arnette, Texas.

When the town was put under quarantine, he was taken to Atlanta, Georgia and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention via Braintree, Texas and later to Stovington, Vermont (In the miniseries he is taken directely to Vermont).
