I feel like I just swallowed some trolls' bait hook line and sinker...
but here goes anyway....

I'm reminded of a George Carlin comment. He saw a window sticker that
read, "Drive carefully, baby on board!" He ranted, "You mean I have to
change the way I drive because you didn't practice safe sex?"

Similarly, I don't let my kids walk on the street with the strip clubs
and tit bars. There's nothing there they need to see. I know what
would happen if I walked by and asked them to change the signs outside
and to put some clothes on those people. They aren't gonna change.

You can't change the world to protect your children.

usenet is a spotty neighborhood, and at any time even the "nicest" news
group can be overrun with rudeness from outside or a sudden personality
clash that starts a flame war. It's not a great area for kids. If you
use a net nanny, I'd guess about 2/3 of usenet is blocked at any given
moment. Often, there's a reason for it.

However, there IS such a thing as being overprotective. Many people
hide their children away, making sure they never learn that there are
people out there who are not like mommy and daddy, people who do things
differently, people who go to other churches (or, gasp!, none at all),
people who have skins of different colors, people who believe in
evoloution, people who don't feel that scholastic achievement is the
only reason we were put on this earth. And when the kids finally learn
these things.... all bets are off. It often happens when they go off to
college... they are exposed to strange new ideas, and mom and dad aren't
there to corral them. And then, they wallow in deparvity. They stay
out until 10:00 PM. They drink grape nehi. They wear short skirts.
They don't spend the entire Sabbath in prayer.

A psychology teacher I took a class or three from commented that you
don't temper steel by never stressing it. You have to heat it and cool
it. If you shield children their whole lives, they become hot house
flowers, unable to withstand the first heavy wind they encounter. "If
you want to raise mentally healthy children, you have to traumatize the
shit out of 'em!" he opined. I think he was right.

I have heard she's a good lucking woman who likes to lay on the faux
sexiness somewhat, but I have yet to see what she looks like (I don't care).

These are NOT chat rooms, these are the Usenet news groups. If there were an
adult, or free-for-all venue in the streets, say a bar for instance, full of
adults using whatever language they saw fit, would you tell them all to
watch their mouths, or just keep your kids the hell out of there?!? There's
bad language and porn all the heck over Usenet, if you let your kids wander
around the groups, expect them to experience it. Surely it is FAR easier to
keep your kids away from the 'bad language' than try to get heaps of people
change their behaviour.

There's better reasons. Want me to explain more simple stuff you already
know to you? I love a good condescension session - it's good for the soul (I
have three to keep working).

You ask a silly question, rinse and repeat until all your apples go pear
shaped and the lemons squeeze themselves. Not all fruits fit into a fruit
basket you know, and some women are juicier.

Or you play dumb - some people can't though because they are.

The fool and the wise man are but flip-sides of the same coin, so what's the
samefrence anyhoo?

BTW (P.s.) etc, coins; are you a flipper, or a tosser?

Have fun with uhhmm, whatever is fun stuff for you, and stuff. I'm off to
peel a sunbather.

Whatever you want. It's pretty amusing watching you foam

out of your butt.

If he does, he'll simply make you explain simple stuff he already
knows. He's been making you do so for the better part of two days now.

And, yes, YHBT. YHL. HAND.

I don't get it. The purpose of being here is to post, to respond to other
people who post and be entertained. Why do you think you have done
something special in getting someone to reply to you when they came here
for the very purpose of replying to people?
You and everyone else here have done exactly these things.

The purpose of life is to amuse me, which it does,

You're welcome -- it's rather hard to miss the language.
This is a text-based medium after all.

I occasionally get entertained by the hostile reviews of her show on the
Food Network chat group. The other day, however, I am ashamed to admit, my
wife and I watched a bit of one of her shows, and my wife actually said
"that sounds pretty good!". It's a good thing she didn't write down the
recipe or anything, as it sounded very unappealing to me.

Every year the orthodox owners of the furniture factory where I worked
after I got out of college took the office staff to a local restaurant
for Christmas dinner.

Every year the wife of the owner ordered lobster.

I'm not sure what the deal was. Part of me thinks it was a feeling of,
"nothing I eat here is kosher, so I might as well go all the way",
another part wonders if you celebrate a Christian holiday with a bunch
of unbelievers if suddenly lobster is kosher.

All of us have our little inconsistencies.

The restaurant's bread was very good..... at least it fit the usual
definition of good restaurant bread. It was freshly heated on premises....

It's related to the reason some orthodox Jews have three sets of plates
(and/or refrigerators): One for meat, one for dairy, and one for Chinese
takeout...

Of course it does. Everything needs more aRe. Just a pity aRe is so
expensive these days. Now pay up.

I guess it would depend on the wave, and the friend, but, I'm not about to
just *guess* - I may be foolish but I'm no fool young lad.

I had them left over from some editing I did and they needing using up since
the freezer broke.

Besides, you seemed like a really decent bloke and well, I just fancied a
bit of a chat.

Oh, I've met you all before.

Just let me know if you want those hooks back and I'll fish them out of my
tackle box. Ha ha! - Do you get it? I said 'fish the out' about the fish
hooks - damn I'm hilarious! ',;~}~

Have a great day now y'hear? I know I will because I always do because I'm
lovely.
