no problem, David-Lindsay Rocks, glad I could help I knew that your original comments were in jest and meant to provoke so I tried to make my comments raw and honest and actually exposed something quite personal on this board. ~and boy, have I second guessed myself all day~

I actually edited my comments several times but I really could not remove them in good faith even though I knew it would amuse you because in the end, it's not about rebuking or amusing you. It's about being true to myself and my beliefs, and successfully speaking out for any others who felt as uncomfortable as I did. Domestic violence has always been a very important subject to me, and if you give me a platform, I will always ascend the soapbox....

PC-politically correct. what really is this pc??? yes, it can be hard to speak out in these modern times especially with humor. Humor often does hinge on one person's pain being another person's entertainment. A slip on a banana peel is funny to everyone except to the person who's back is now in traction. A tack on the teachers chair is great fun, except for the tetanus shot needed later.

Well since we're doing the "for the record" thing, I just want to reiterate to readers that I take FULL credit for my comments, and I want to thank those of you who were kind enough to deliver the reaction I was looking for. You guys took the bait, and quite frankly, I'm having a nice little laugh over this one

Good, always express yourself regardless of pc. But I may just call you on it, and believe me, David-Lindsay Rocks, I'm not trying to be pc nor am I asking you to be pc...I'm just giving you my Marge Simpson "MMMMMM"
