Forbidden Truth DO NOT READ OR MENTION THIS POST!!!!

Me had sad occassion to drive across SHERMAN MINTON Bridge from Louisville to New Albanys.
Guess what? Me hate to even mention it and notice no body done talk about what I am about to
say and throw all cautions to wind to tell.

All well remembers the Kennedy Bridge and how it take 20 year to paint said bridge. How we
actualery wind up PAYING 27 MILLION DOLLARS to NOT paint bridge to one company and
this here saga go on and on. Finally, Govment scrap plan for fancy paint job and get Bridge painted with sad beige color paint....but all and many breathes big sigh of RELIEF that bridge is painted.

ME HATE TO SAY IT....BUT SHERMAN MINTON BRIDGE NEEDS TO BE PAINTED!!!!

The Sherman Minton Always gives me the creeps when I'm on the lower level...But I use to love it when I was a kid because you could see Fountain Ferry when you went across it.

Just in! Special paid-in-Krugerrands) review for Goliath of the new movie version of "The A-team (2010)". A good nostalgia trip for the political mind. The fight "against the man". The fight "for the man" as well. In the same flick, dude! Competing intel interests make the plot fun. Black op vs black op: sort of reminds me of the Mad magazine "Spy vs Spy" episodes. Rangers lead the way. All the way. There isn't just "one" Federal Government in this movie. Uncle Sammy has multiple personalities and identities working upon the other factions, watching each other, and all trying to attain individual goals. Goals like stopping the bad guys, protecting the average American's currency from evil Iranian dictators, putting the "out of control good guys" back in the federal slammer, maintaining the vital actions of the CIA, seeing the roll of the US Army succeeding in stabilizing Iraq, and misinterpretation the roll of Blackwater in the fight for freedom. Liam Neeson is most excellent as the Special Forces A-Team leader Col. Hannibal Smith. He quotes the George Peppard line well: "I love it when a plan comes together". The new "B A" Baracus is not as good as Mr. T. It isn't his fault. The writing for his part is insufficient to give him enough exposure and the character isn't developed nearly as well as it should be to develop the role correctly. Better in the sequel? "Face" and "Howling Mad Murdock" are good in support. Anyone named "Howling Mad" rocks in my book! There are heavy Department of Defense Military Police cop types led by the delicious Jessica Biel, who reminds me of the stunning temptress Jessica Rabbit! Hannibal in this flick disparages "Blackforest" ( thinly disguised attack upon the very effective "Blackwater" black op boys) to appeal to the Libs in the audience secretly watching an action movie! Shame on them! There are even heavier "CIA regular" types somewhat ineptly portrayed. And, of course, the heavier still yet "Backforest" types disparaged as ( horrors) "polo shirt operatives"! The Blackwater.....err......Blackforest guys even have, strangely, an extra "theatre of operation" insignia patch that looks somewhat German. Hmm.........Still atavistically trying to kick Uncle Sammy's honorable CIA, and associate cut outs, as fascist? Please. Lynch of the CIA certainly must have high ranking government influence as he gets a lot of intel quickly and lots and lots of gear. Significant pull: "Yes, we are armed and you will not wand us." Pike of "Blackforest" does show some real ability. Nieson is always "one step ahead". The regular Army is always doing its duty in the background, and the DOD cops have a slick chick chasing the perps. Dude, Captain Jessica Biel does looks very good in mil spec shades! Natalie James as Lynch's secretary, Katie Boskovitch as a French reporter, and Alex Madison as a drug dealing renegade Mexican General's wife are all very hot! You must go see it to see if the "handlers" for Pike and Lynch manage to "walk" them away and the if the "team" makes it. Who is secretly "controlling" Pike? Lynch? Who is really after the A-team? Why? Who gets the plates and the very large stash of counterterfeit currency? Caution! Danger lurks within the factions! Cold chills. Thank you to Stephen J. Cannell for the fun! BTW, don't let Goliath kid you. Goliath does allegedly know some of the real persons portrayed in the movie. The Saddam Hussein government was heavily involved in the counterfeiting of US currency and Iran is still into into the counterfeit currency game. Heavy.
