Oh my God, I am trembling... Sir: a) you have none sense of humour, as it has been evident since ever. No problem, but please, try not to exagerate. b) you presume as a reason the irated reaction of some other poster and you declared yourself her nanny.That's preposterous. If Sarah becomes angry, why she should do so ?, let her to play her moves. c) you maybe think that to talk of Demi Moore taking off her clothes is the paradigm of porno, but then, if that is what you think of such a trivial and inocent thing, I advice you not to make it public. Of course you have the right to consider not funny this or that post, but that should be enough. I suppose that you are not like that people that throw his glass of whiskey on the face of the entertainer if they does not like his jokes. In fact I think that your tone and words went too far even for a site like this, with some statistical bias to gather a more than average collections of people easy to become off set by this trivia. And yes, it was more or less an off topic post, but if I remember well almost every moderator said, in his platform, that a deegree of it was alouded. My salutes Fernando
