Name: Jerome Buckmelter Email: buckmelter@excelonline.com Homepage: http://www.excelir.com/excelbuck Hometitle: Buckmelter website Reference: From a Friend Location: Woodland Hills, CA via Mingo Comments: St.Agnes '61, CCHS '65, CalState L.A. '70, UCLA (MA) '73. Where in God's vast universe is Mingo Junction? Mingo is the hub of the universe! And not only that, but string theorists now believe that the universe originated in Mingo, the "epicenter" of the Big Bang. Theologians corroborate this. The primordial darkness of the original black hole, referred to in Genesis, was shattered when God thus spake, "Let there be Light." Some theologians say that these words -- from which all creation sprang -- were first uttered in Mingo Junction!! Pretty cool stuff. For the first time in history, mankind has melded science and pholosophy (indeed theology) to create a unified theory of EXISTENCE, and it all began with the function at the Junction. I am proud and honored to be from Mingo. Check out our website: http://www.excelir.com/excelbuck
