Conversation with Smooth Jazz and American Contractor.....6-2-11 ON ANOTHER SITE

Good Evening or Morning wherever you may be. I have decided to post my recent conversation with most peoples least favorite intel source, "American Contractor." The reason I know most don't like his intel or information is because it always goes against the grain and is usually very sobering when compared to that of others out there. So, if your offended by what he has said in the past, I suggest you don't read my post!
