- Never claimed to be perfect. I did, however understand his point.

- Yes, I seemed to. Unbeknownst to you, I was being satirical. You seem to
- take things quite literally. Things are not always what they appear to be.
- John posted something to that effect yesterday...

- Oh, well. Some folks enjoyed it and others didn't. I have nothing against the
- guy who originally posted, but I get into rather evil moods at times. I was
- sick and tired of seeing those personal ads flashing onto my screen with the
- frequency that they did. I do apologize for offending your sensibilities, but
- my point about personal ads remains what it was.
-
- Now, why is it that when I make fun of French people, Californians, Americans,
- The British, or any other group, including Canadians from one end of this
- country (Canada, BTW), to the other, you remain silent? Then you jump on me
- when I joke about a visible minority. You are a tad inconsistent, there.
