There may not be 'Women's Rights' like the ones I believe have gone overboard in some Countries, but he can never stop me bitching. I just hate myself when I'm like that. We don't need women's rights anyway as everyone knows the woman is really the boss, the secret is pretending that the husband is the boss.

The location is Mt. Hood in Oregon, and several of the climbers were killed. One group of climbers slipped and came down upon 2 other groups causing all 3 groups to fall into a crevasse. The helicopter is Air Force reserve and only one person was badly injured but is expected to recover. Mountain climbing is a very big business here in the Pacific Northwest and probably always will be. Being up on the mountain is a wonderful experience and the view is unmatched! Just another soggy Seattle Sysop. -----Original Message----- From: Brian [mailto:brian@lordbramhall.co.uk] Sent: Friday, May 31, 2002 12:33 AM To: GEN-FRIENDS-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [GEN-FRIENDS] Climbers & walkers It just came on the news here in UK that a rescue helicopter crashed in snowy mountains trying to rescue climbers somewhere in the US.

Today's paper tells us that the police have more charges to bring against her if ever her present tariff is altered due to European rules. For the benefit of our overseas pals, back in the early 1960's Myra Hindley and her boyfriend Brady abducted and tortured children then filmed and recorded their terror as they were tortured then buried them on the moors. Some have still to be found. New European laws say we [UK] should release some 1300 killers because they believe they have been in jail too long. I wish they would let her out so she could be ripped to pieces like she did to the kids.

If Myra Hindley gets out, I will personally try and kill her. I don't believe in the death penalty, but I do believe that true repentance for HER crimes (and HIS) would call for acceptance of the whole of life spent in jail. After all, she lives a life of luxury, and has done a Sociology degree while she's been in there. He has written a book. I fear that now Lord Longford is dead, she may get out, because every time he tried to get her out, he added another ten years to her sentence!
