ANGRY WHITE BOY CLOTHING AND APPAREL

If you're not frustrated, you're not paying attention to what's going on around you. from working day in and day out, sometimes 2 jobs just barely scrape by, to bird brained celebrities getting more news coverage than the men and women fighting and dying over seas. To broken borders, racial double standards, airport security, healthcare, cell phones, hip hop, "Reality TV" and the robotic population that simply accepts things for what they are and never question authority.

If you're an angry white boy (or girl!) This clothing line is for you. Check them out.. Because The MainStream is F**N Repulsive..

Adopt Ruby-- Our Pet of The Week

104.9 The Edge, The Animal Protective Foundation and Toyota of Clifton Park present our Pet Of The Week!

Name: Ruby

ID#: A#23051

Age: 8 ½ years

Sex: Spayed Female
Breed: Domestic Longhair – Brown & Gold Tiger

Ruby was originally adopted from the APF 5 years ago. Her feline companion recently passed away, and her owner didn’t feel she had enough time to spend with her. This lovely lady has stunning brown and gold markings, and she does a good job of maintaining her luxurious long coat. A mature cat by some standards, 8 ½ year old Ruby has sadly been passed up for the many kittens we have this time of year. Please give the adult cats a second chance at life – remember: today’s kittens are tomorrow’s cats!
