Finally a proper cellular phone for kids. Typically I detest seeing kids with phones no matter the good intentions.

And these are the people George Bush wants to give a “palastinian state”? The obvious question being “ever hear of Jordan?”
Fascinating – it wasn’t a secret that the same EU members who bash the US for not joining Koyoto are themselves fail ingto hit emissions targets of their own participation.
