The Inside Scoop on Spit and Argue ... Way Back
When, in the nineteen twenties, the people of Long Beach held a debate by the beach. It was
called "University By The Sea" and "Spit and Argue."
I bought the domains/URL's
SpitandArgue.com and SpitnArgue.com while writing for the VIEW FROM THE HILL News (NOT to be confused with the monthly
"View From Long Beach Magazine" that moved in shortly before the VIEW News' demise). Enjoy the
Links Below, they forward to whatever my fancy is this month!

Google Search "Spit and Argue" to find out more...
Currently you'll wind up right where you are when you click http://www.spitandargue.com
Recently LOCAL NEWSPAPERS have
labeled columns SPIT AND ARGUE. Intellectual Minds Think Alike! (My idea of photographing the
"normal joe" in a weekly publication ALSO took off - but not at the VIEW)... Anyway, ThePrimeSpot.com Highly
Recommends and Encourages learning what others in this world think... But if you disagree, don't just fume, TURN
BULLFIGHTS INTO BRAINSTORMS!* For instance, sometimes I listen to "racist radio" on AM just to see
what other people who LOOK just like me THINK opposite about!
Scary! Because these people, too,
can draw an audience...

The SPIT AND ARGUE CLUB formerly hosted at www.spitandargue.net
was a "rich family feud." I'm figuring since it has been taken down, matters
between father and son have been resolved.
NOTE: If you were the one who offered to purchase Spit
n' Argue
through an internet broker, email me DIRECTLY
at theprimespot@aol.com
I am tossing around the idea of fwding it to an internet "show" I can
only describe
as "Internet Squares" Debating Faith! (NOT suitable for the easly hurt, insulted, immature
or ornry!)

from around our city. It's a fun site! I totally agree with you on Freedom Writers...I thought it was exceptional.
It seems many teachers and residents have boycotted the movie believing it's all about exposing Long Beach as a dangerous
place to live. How unfortunate that anyone should miss such a powerful story. I took my two sons to see it and, I think every
teen should see it. This film is not only the best of it's kind, it's one of the best films I've seen. Keep getting
the word out so more LB residents will see it before it goes away."

One day in October I asked a coworker (a war veteran) and his son (currently serving) if they could appear on a
local TV show VIEW FROM LONG BEACH (produced by Lois Ledger). The taping would take place just a few days after his honorable
disharge from the service and would be aied around VETERAN's DAY. It was there, at that moment I learned my coworker
was on leave, tending to his son recently riddled with schrapnel.
I recalled exchanges about their emails.
It sounde as if his son was concerned for the newst soldiers ("just kids!") the new recruits.
Also, unnecessary accidents were taking place due to Lack of Sleep. He is currently mending but I will ask them onto
