Break The Beast into more manageable bits.<br /><br />And, I love that you planted the idea in my head: military base = terror cell. I'm sure I'll start incorporating that one into my speech and writings. Thank you. It's so simple I can't believe I never thought of calling them that before!Kent McManigalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05005964583189815410noreply@blogger.com
