Hi Rambi, X and others, I've been waiting for GZ to find my post to him from yesterday and to respond to it. He had told me he'd engage in a serious conversation about sex education, but I've begun to believe that it's not in the cards. I see that he just posted this on the RWET: anyway, most all the posters on that no gloves thread behave and post very much like that trailer trash you'd find on those idiotic programs..... I bet some of those posters have actually been guests on those shows themselves too, what a life they must lead..... Frankly, I don't hold much hope of having any kind of dialog with someone who makes statements like that. I'll see you on the LWP.

I didn't think you said humor was impossible, and I certainly don't think so either. Actually, I think we're in sort of violent agreement here, particularly the second paragraph. I mostly just know the guys from the political context, though. My understanding is that they think they're being funny, but I'm somewhat at a loss to see the humor in the pack mentality. X said middle school once, but I'd go back a little farther on the evolutionary scale, it seems more in the style of feral canines. Oops, that was a bit ungracious on my part, you may dispute that bit at will. Cheers, Dan.
