Sokolsky what do you know one of the experiences which 1 every commentator on life encounters is the assertion that while he May know what he is talking about occasionally. He knows nothing about tins or that particular subject especially when what he says May affect someone s Cash income.

All to the Point of my knowing about gangs gangsters social workers and such maybe i was born with a Platinum spoon in my Mouth according to the National association of social workers Connecticut chapter in a a hell of a Guy because i do not agree that it is the function of society to Moll coddle bad boys and girls.
