The News Yesterday About Today
Did you know Huntsvillian? When you picked up this Tuesday morning’s hardcopy of the Huntsville Times, it was printed in Birmingham and shipped to Huntsville overnight!

Timothy McVeigh | KING OF THE JEWS! P1
Many people will read that line and think “what gall” to even suggest that Mr. McVeigh is worthy to even be considered in the same breath as the only Son of God and Christian Saviour Jesus Christ.
Rocker Say No!
It is almost incomprehensible. It is so far beyond the pale, that it is unbelievable. It is dangerous. Really dangerous. And yet, where are the outraged fans, community groups, mental health advocates, and church leadership? (72 KB midi file / 5 min. 18 sec. audio) Atlanta Braves pitcher John Rocker raises a defient fist to […]
