Joe Gibbs...My favorite Washington Redskins coach.

Vince Lombardi...George Allen...didn't Shirley have box seats back then?

[Ram1]

Yes. Actually, Shirley bought lifetime season tickets during Lombardi's short tenure with the Redskins. And legend has it, she was actually one of the first original Redskin's "hogettes."

[airdog]

I specifically recall John Riggins copying her hair-do...it looked better on her. Of course, this was before the spatula incident.

The spatula incident...she'll never live that one down. Still no sign of her huh?

[airdog]

Nah, I already miss her spanish omelettes, her dryer-lint sculptures, and mostly the way she'd catch garden slugs and line them up on her shoulders. It was quite fetching, if not flat-out existential!

[shinestar]

yes, Ram1, please find the quote. Thank you!

[shorty]

I find it funny, how she still goes on, and on, and on
Ram1 you know what I am talking about

Shinestar: First of all, I don't know why I'm even doing this. But, you want me to prove it to you, so I will. I guess you're the type of person who doesn't believe it unless you see, read or hear it for yourself. As Americans, most of us know that P. Mac has been a strong supporter of our defense since Sept. 11th. Furthermore, Paul stated in a quote on this very site that he is very glad of Tony Blair's support of the U.S. as an ally in defense. These are some quotes from Paul which can be found on THIS VERY SITE, Macca Central. There are many more from other places, but I'm not gonna spend half my Sunday evening looking for them.

"So I'm going to do this benefit show to show solidarity. The thing is that people may disagree with how we live, but this attack has crossed the line; it is a real no-no and you have to show the people who have done this that we are not going to put up with it."

"You've got to stand up and do something...."

"But the main thing is it's freedom. So, yeah, I wrote a song about freedom, about how it's my right, and anyone who would take it away would have to answer."

Also, Paul stated on his official site a few months ago that although he is generally for non-violence, a horrible act like Sept. 11th is uncalled for, and we have to defend ourselves. So, if none of this convinces you, then I don't know what will. Furthermore, as a fellow American Shinestar, if you don't think we should be defending ourselves after thousands of our innocent loved ones were killed, then either you were living under a rock on Sept. 11th, or I just don't know what your problem is.
