[Vision2020] Friday Fireworks

[Matt Decker]

Tom,

This had nothing to do with how I feel about Bush or the war. It was about donations. Donations for the wounded troops vs. donations for the poor professors. All of which I believe you would be for.

As in regards to fireworks. Why in sams hell can't Moscow have a show on the forth, but we can have one for a homecoming game for one of the worst ranked teams in the nation? Priorities?

Matt
