If someone offends me I wanna bloody offend them. I (like some other people here) don't give a Rats A$%^ (in the USA that's Rats A%%) who I offend as long as I believe they shouldn't be too offended. And when they do get too offended they bite back. That's more fun for me (like some other people here) and headaches for Moderators. I appreciate Moderators, it gives the wimps and sooky bubbas somewhere to officcially complain, so that they are happy too "Mummy, she made me eat soap suds" "Be quiet or I'll belt you both" "but......" Thank you all moderators A job well done
