     Hey Brendan, Great work as always. Some thoughts on the building: Slavery -- That trailer is perfect. Was the trailer-park guy on the Jerry Sringer show in one of your other offerings? I really like the camera angle on the floor-scrubbing picture. (...) (21 years ago, 14-Oct-03, to lugnet.build.ancient)

         Re: The Brick Testament: More Laws than You Can Shake a Stick At —Brendan Powell Smith
     Hi, Leonard. (...) As I mentioned in my reply to Bruce, it wasn't meant to be offensive, but it certainly does challenge the Christian view of things. If that, in and of itself, is offensive to some people, well so be it. I think a devout Christian (...) (21 years ago, 15-Oct-03, to lugnet.build.ancient, FTX)
