saw a news report on a "village" in Ohio USA that just defies explanation..... how something like this can continue to go on is beyond belief to me..... check out this site and prepare to be astounded..... www.newromesucks.com
Only someone with HUGE mental problems would pay good money and take useful time and waste it all on a stupid site like that! BTW, how many people do you suppose are going to listen to that garbage?
I think it's a good, funny, informative site. Plus it works in Netscape. If somebody wants to spend a few bucks every month to rant about something that pisses him off, I say let him.
I wouldn't say I have HUGE mental problems. Maybe small ones, but not HUGE. Good money? I pay 8.99 a year and get free hosting from a supporter of the cause. I have also had several offers for free hosting. I suppose I could be doing a lot of other things with my time, but I enjoy this so I don't exactly hate it. Stupid? Since when did standing up for what you believe become stupid? I think 50 years is enough time for this to have gone on. Don't you? How many people listen to the garbage? Well there is a counter at the bottom of the page if you care to look, but I will tell you. 116192 have visited the page and I have been on 20/20, in Car and Driver magazine, the LA Times, National Enquirer, NY Times, and various radio and TV stations. I think a lot of people want to listen. Sorry, I just have to interject from time to time when I see someone who doesn't know what they are talking about. Jim from New Rome Sucks
Or someone who has nowhere else to turn in order to be heard. And if things are as bad as the site says, I hope to any god who'll hear that someone will listen. And if things aren't as bad as the site says, well someone deserves credit for creativity, and at least they have a space to vent.
I think it just might be that bad. I remember seeing a story about this on one of the cable news networks within the past couple of months, maybe it was MSNBC.... Well anyway it certainly did seem to be quite the absurd situation.
It's not about speed limits. Or traffic violations. It's about cops and council members abusing their power. That might be ok in great britain, south africa, iraq, iran, hong kong, or singapore. But this is America. And it's not ok here.
What a MINDFUCK. I mean, really, what the hell is the site owner doing here bitching. Shouldn't he be doing an interview with sixty minutes or something? I'd rather he just take things into his own hands like Clint Eastwood style. Which would then be made into a movie starring Dirty Harry himself. Then I could at least have my five minutes back from visiting that cry for help.
Whoa. There was a story about this on some news magazine type show, possibly on MSNBC like I said. I suppose you think he can do something like that every week? There are certainly worse things on the Internet. I don't see what the big deal is with this one. If you don't like the site just forget about it and save yourself an aneurysm.
Why because a friend of my cousin's uncle's roomate told me of course..:wink: Just some good old-fashioned "Yankee" sarcasm. :grin:
Xento, did you read anything on that site?. or did you just look at the pretty pictures and go, "oohhhh, shiny". i suggest you think before you comment.
When i first saw the site i thought "What the hell?", but after some reading, i saw the fun in it. AS my english teacher say, if a cop wants to bust you for something wrong about your car. He will, wether you like it or not.
