there is a storm headed Crawford's way.
Here you go:
I was contacted yesterday by someone from North Dakota. I have no idea how she got my cell phone number, but she did and she felt the need to share the following information:
Peace you guys, there is a storm coming this weekend, be prepared, and most of all be calm and be peaceful.
> Cindy, I found this floating around on the internet yesterday: I am

> Cindy, please also bear in mind that this may be a shrewd campaign
manuever

you,

keep

radical

> Do what you think and feel is best, and I am going to next send you an
idea

the
