    as with others, I was uncomfortable with security issues. Late in 2012 I used my card in an online transaction and fell victim to card theft with a runup of near 11 grand and last month there was another attempt so I took it down figuring why take chances. Besides, I really feel no real need to use it. ESB is better :good

    its okay, sharing thoughts and ideas but then again, us men are generally busier than women and dont have time for that. I got sick of seeing outrage over the latest winner of DWTS or American Idol

    actually...some of you will know about this...

    that bill cayton release says...and i quote...

    "Bill Cayton's PRIME TIME BOXING
    Presents:

    Sugar Ray Robinson versus Jake LaMotta IV
    February 23, 1945

    The never filmed fight between Jake LaMotta, boxing’s famous “Raging Bull,” and Sugar Ray Robinson, boxing’s all-time greatest pound-for-pound fighter."

    i was posting there today about an old online pal of mine from new york who used to go to the big fights in the garden in 40's / 50s onwards and hang round stillmans gym watching the training.....he's shared some of his memories....people with first hand memories like this are becoming few and far between i think....someone here might get something out of these like i did...
