Minnesota Street Rod Association
The Minnesota Street Rod Association (MSRA) was founded over thirty years ago by a group of Twin Cities car enthusiasts. The original 12 members met at a Pizzeria in Minneapolis, MN. They created an association of local car clubs to serve as a forum providing information about the hobby to other clubs and enthusiasts in the area.

One of the first events the new Association hosted was a cruise night. They invited about 200 friends to meet at St. Paul's Midway Shopping Center parking lot. After an impromptu car show some of the members took off to cruise to a local theater. They filled the streets with rods and customs just as the film "American Graffiti" let out. After a few years, they moved the event to the Minnesota State Fairgrounds. They named this get together Back to the 50's!

MSRA Today
The MSRA has grown to exceed 13,000 members world-wide. Back to the 50's now hosts over 11,500 cars and over 200,000 spectators. It is the second largest car show of its kind in the world, with the NSRA Street Rod Nationals being the first.

MSRA is an all-volunteer association. The Association is governed by a Board of Directors whom are also volunteers. As a non-profit organization all profits are returned to the members in the form of the Web page, LineChaser, subsidized picnics, dances, banquets and campouts. Membership dues have remained unchanged for twenty years.

Back to the 50's has been featured in Street Rodder and Rod and Custom magazines and has been highlighted on My Classic Car on the TNN cable network. The event has also been covered by Nitro Magazine, a magazine in France. With members in Australia, Canada, Great Britain, New Zealand and the United States, the MSRA is a "world-class" car club.

The Future?
MSRA is still about Friends, Food, Fun and Fellowship...but most about having fun with cars! So lean back and let's go cruisin'!

The Keys of Death and Hell
The Keys of Death and Hell as so advertised in Revelations 1:18. I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death. To anyone who has studied the bible codes one will realize that the gematria has been used throughout the Bible. Yet like most who study the Bible, most have come to the realization that it is open to speculation on basically every level. With various contradictions an imaginative predictions its existance has proved more imaginative than factual. The Keys of Death and Hell are no less aluring. Yet the keys themself have a foundation that supports more than just the idea of a set of keys, they support what some consider to be the mark of the beast, 666. For others it supports the old Freemasons' 333. Centuries have past since Bacon edited the bible, and its been even longer since Constantine commisioned his men to write the New Testament. As a starter no one has ever dared address the idea of what the keys might mean. But just as all other areas found in the Bible, the keys too are basic symbolic gestures to the mathmatical, such is the reality of all things. With these mathmatical observations in hand we can open up the idea that the 333 and the 666 have been in play for longer than one wishes to admit. By no means can the Freemasons be as youthful as the historians like to believe. So inturn a deeper question remains, why has such knowledge been covered up?

Jeffrey Allen Trail
In the late fall of 1996, Jeffrey Trail, 28, made a big change. He moved from San Diego to Bloomington, Minn., to take a job as district manager for Ferrellgas, a propane delivery company in Inver Grove Heights.

"He was really nice," said Lisa Pilot, 27, a customer service representative who worked for Trail. "He didn't know a lot about propane. He was hard-working and always willing to learn from the rest of us.

"He never got mad. He was always caring," she added, "He wasn't here all that long. We didn't get to know him very well."

Born in De Kalb, Ill., Trail was the youngest of five children. His father, Stanley, is a retired mathematics professor who taught at Northern Illinois University; his mother, Ann, a retired public elementary school teacher.

"It sounds trite, but he was a wonderful son and we're going to really miss him," said Ann Trail.

While in high school, Jeff Trail ran track, his father said. The son attended Westminster Presbyterian Church and worked at the local airport, his father said, "to be around fliers and airplanes." Jeff Trail graduated from De Kalb High School in 1987.

Trail's acceptance by the U.S. Naval Academy was a very big deal "for Jeff and for me," said Stanley Trail. After graduation in 1991, he was stationed in San Diego. For a short time after he got out of the Navy, said his father, Jeff was a trainee in the California Highway Patrol.

In San Diego, Jeff Trail and Cunanan became friends. "Jeff was the kind of guy who was always trying to help people out," the elder Trail said.

"He was kind, caring. He had very few bad habits," he continued. "He went out of his way to be helpful to people."

He said this was not just a father's pride. "This is what I've gleaned from people."

Francesco Narastash
Born 9th February 1922 - 16th December 1966.

Francesco 'Frankie' Narastash was an italian criminal and leading Consiglieri to Luciano Leggio head of the Corleonese, the Mafia faction that originated in the italian town of Corleone.

Narastash was born in Palermo, Italy in 1922 and is one of 5 children. Raised in poverty, Narastahs turned to crime in his early teens and by the time he was 18 he had already received 3 convictions for stealing and assault, the latter led to a 5 month jail term. The next few years saw Narastash in and out of prison several times and on 11th March, 1946 he murdered a fellow inmate. After an argument over cigarettes he pushed the inmate over a second level cell block to his death. Although there were many witnesses to the murder, no one came forward and he was acquitted due to lack of evidence. The inmate happened to be the brother of a farm hand shot dead by Luciano Leggio in 1945 and this came to the attention of then mafia boss Michele Navarra who subsequently recruited him as an enforcer and hitman.

In the late 1940's he was again behind bars for various assualts and during this time he met Salvatore Riina who was in jail for manslaughter. The two bacame friends and upon both their releases they were approached by Leggio and began to build a mafia faction loyal to him alone. This did not please Navarra and Narastahs was subsequently 'disowned' by him.

By 1956 Leggio's faction, including Narastash were becoming powerful in their own right. A war was raged with Navarra and his followers and Narastahs was almost killed in 1958 when Navarra's men made an attempt on Leggios life. Leggio was only slightly injured and Narastash received two non fatal shots to the leg and arm.

A short time after this attack Leggio's men killed Navarra in a revenge attack spraying hundreds of bullets into his car during an ambush. Navarra died at the scene.

By the 1960s' Narastash was a leading figure in one of the most powerful mafia clans in Italy. His friendship with Leggio grew to the point that he bacame one of three leading consiglieri's during their murderous heroin dealings of the 1960's. These dealings led to greed and by 1965 Narastash was growing tired of playing second fiddle. He quietly bagan to recruit his own men inclusing notorius hitman Giovanni Alonso. Not only was Narastash now stealing drugs from Leggio in order to sell them, he was also beginning to undercut his boss and steal his customers. Leggio eventually got wind of his plans, initially believeing it to be an associate of Navvara. Once he found out it was Narastash he saw it as a the greatest form of betrayal and ordered his execution.

on the 16th December, 1966 Narastash and Alonso were shot dead by an unknown Leggio associate whilst dining at a local restaurant.

M.E. Carn
MERRICK EZRA CARN (1808-1862) was Lt. Governor of South Carolina from 1858 to 1860 under then Governor Gist. Merrick signed the SC "Ordinance of Secession" in Dec. of 1860 at Charleston.

Merrick was born in 1808 the son of Thomas Carn and Strobel. He was therefore a grandson of Lewis J. Carn, a colonial planter. His Uncles Daniel and Lewis Carn were known to be American Patriots and Revolutionary War Veterans according to the 1835 Penson Roll.

Merrick went to South Carolina College (USC) and later studied law to become a SC lawyer. He held many positions of local and state government, from his home seat in Walterboro, Colleton Co., SC. This included lawyer, attorney, planter, mayor, county and state rep, state senator, and finally as Lt. Governor. He also was Presidental Elector in the 1850s for the Democratic Party. He also was a member and deacon for the St Jude's Anglican Church in Walterboro. He attended a conference before war broke out.

Merrick married and had one daughter Mary Carn who married Fishburne and their son (Merrick's grandson) was EL Fishburne, the SC State Supreme Court Justice.

Merrick died in January of 1862 and was described by his cousin David Gavin, Esq., as being the most liberal minded of men. Merrick was a registered Southern Democrat. CARN Street in Walterboro city in named after him, and is nearby his historic home. The SC State Bill 2176 in 1979-80 created his gravesite a state historical marker. He is buried at the Ashepoo River Bridge in Colleton County, SC.
