Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: More on Rumors
Well my Mom was born in Chattanooga, TN. Maybe that explains the bacon bits. Heck, I was born in DC which is also below the Mason Dixon line. Of course Maryland where I grew up can't be considered the deep South. A border state in the Civil War. Oh my God and the first time I brought tofu to my sister's house. Her five year old Matthew just stood there staring at it. Then totally serious, as only a five year old can be, he asked, "Aunt Sharon, can I pet it?"

That's how knowledge gets distorted. You pick out what you like to hear and leave out the rest. The rumour-monging from souls like Rick is on a completely different level, pure tamas to keep the soul enslaved, by himself, for himself.
