    Keep on yapping, Satanic. I'm glad I live in a place where's there's a one-L Holywood.

    Hollywood is as fake as you are. Holly isn't native to California; maybe it "settled" there and the "wood" part applies more to the craniums of those who think the REAL world doesn't see what's going on in Israel's ruthless and unholy "war to the bitter end" on the wretchedly poor people of Gaza. See www.Skynews. com to see the latest achievement of your warriors - 40 children hiding from the savagery in a UN school have been obliterated. Drink a champagne toast to that! Down with the Gaza Ghetto and all hail the conquering heroes (and heroines such as Tzipi Livni and Condoleeza Rice) of Israel and the USA (henceforth to be regarded as one country).
