Wayne:

Please don't assume you know my political agenda. Rest assured that
you don't have a clue about it.

Liars and sneaks aren't okay with me.  Outdated info on a city bio:
Don't see the big deal.  I'll bet I could find outdated and inaccurate
info about you on the web, too.

>> Steed lied from the beginning about the Hawkins deal. He convinced four of
