LEAD CITY (DOWNTOWN RIO)
CHRISTMAS COMES BUT THE AIR IN RIO DE JANEIRO SMELLS LIKE GUNPOWDER AND MELTING LEAD! ALL OVER THE WORLD, WAR SPREADS LIKE CURSE. IN RIO EXISTS A NON-DECLARED DIRTY WAR WHERE ASSASSINS & DRUG DEALERS PUSH THE CITY TO HELL. HOMICIDES ARE ROUTINE KILLING INNOCENT PEOPLE ALL OVER TOWN.
HAPPY NEW YEAR? YES, BUT MAYBE IN NORDIC COUNTRIES, NOT HERE!

I KNOW IT QUITE WELL, MATE, BUT NOW, WITH IRA'S EFFORTS TO ESTABLISH PEACE AND ENGLISH ARMY'S SLIGHT RETIREMENT, THINGS WILL WORK OUT WELL. STAY WITH GOD.Eamon Lynch 02/08/2005 21:29
