    Viggo Mortensen.

    May I ask about the source of this specific interest, Moussé ?

    Most really do prefer being called black, it denotes being on the same level as White, Indian, Latino, Asian, Etc. Being Called African-American is basically saying they're not the same.

    oh... hmmm; Halle Barry

    It's similar to saying "german american" and not meant to be an equivalent to "black" I thought.

    I was going to give you a lengthy reply; but I felt that it would be in the better served in the backroom.

    Have you just been dumped?

    I ask because it's usually something like that which causes outbursts like this, needless to say I dissagree completely.

    Christopher Judge.

    He's not African-American?!!
    But the title says Afro-American, so just find a picture of him wearing an afro and everything will be fine.

    Oh, uh, my jokes have been so lame lately that they are taken for serious. (this is not an opportunity for you to say that they always were, I'll shoot you all in the heels with RPG.)

    I'll askthepizzaguy about this issue anyway.

    Regarding the fact that he was the one to accommodate me to The Org 's circle before getting kicked out in my Armenian Issue thread here back in 2005, yeah, what you said sounds as accurate as Viggo Mortensen being Nordic-American

    I laughed LEN
    There, but for the grace of God, goes John Bradford

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.
