Oil leak in the gulf, unemployment, war in Afghanistan, deficit spending, problems with climate, record-setting heat--and yet, this is what rocks your boat. A problem that needs correcting? I'll worry about Tiger Woods' cursing when those other problems are no more. -- Mike Dalecki Occam's Razor: If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it's probably a duck.

I'll worry about Tiger Woods' cursing >when those other problems are no more. There still are small problems that I work on when there are big ones that haven't been solved. And I have some that are hard to work at within myself. For instance, I try very hard to not try very hard at my golf swing. I need it to be more natural - but not my current natural. In the same way, I tend to be Righteous in condemning Righteousness. I believe that most of the evil in the world today is committed by Righteous people. I expect my statements to that effect don't change anything, but my personal moral beliefs require me to make an effort. I do *not* believe much, if any damage is done by crude language. So even when I'm not comfortable with that language, I'd rather object to Righteous anger against someone using that language. I also note that when that Righteous anger is directed to one specific person and not to everybody else who does the same thing, it appears that this isn't Righteous action against the action - but against the person. -- "In no part of the constitution is more wisdom to be found, than in the clause which confides the question of war or peace to the legislature, and not to the executive department." - James Madison

Far worse than Tiger: He knows he's offending people whom he has claimed as friends and he is not doing it in the heat of the moment. -- Alan Baker Vancouver, British Columbia <http://gallery.me.com/alangbaker/100008/DSCF0162/web.jpg>
