Did the Fred Franz style of writing cease after he died?
by SydBarrett in
1. jw
2. friends
i was completely out by 1991 and 1989 would have been the last time i had to attend regularly.

that over the top franz writing style was still there in the 1980's although i've heard he wasn't actually doing much writing by then.

but his style was definitely picked up and imitated for many years beyond its wacky, outlandish peak of the the 50's - 70's.

we may find it a challenge to understand this matter fully, but making decisions like this is part of the load that each of us must carry.

Trump Tariffs started today, Some Countries Caved in early morning.
by liam in

2. current
usa politicians in charge of the economy for the past 50 years were too stupid to understand how the economy works.

this just proves my theory, that an education on the top tier universities just sucks and means nothing in the real world, unless its in the stem education.

for 50 years usa had zero tariffs on other countries.
