How are you related? Are you from Belleville too?

Go somewhere else than country. wilcoworld.net. Go fly the confederate flag somewhere, maybe up your ____.

My memory isn't the best, but I caught all three Florida shows this year and I believed he played Whiskey Bottle, he played another song but I was to ____ to remember. I'm a huge Yankee fan - was he disappointed with the result of '03 series?

Yes, maybe he won't be the most lucrative musician in the world, but I don't think that is his goal. But, I will surely do my part to get ...

Come on people, if you are going to have an opinion on this subject, first educate yourselves. I wonder what Jay's view would be? If you don't understand the nature of the beast, then let's use some common sense. Politics is a dirty business, but if you don't like it than try to do something about i...
