Alan....do you live for this kind of silly nitpicking? Isn't it ski bum season yet? Read my original response to his insult. I used the words, "considered the source" which means I wasn't personally insulted by his words. They didn't bother me. My self image is immune to his types. > > The issue is whether it bothers you, the reader. That's the answer to > > your question, Alan.

Which is precisely why the reader needed to know the context, so they (the reader) could decide if these types of OTT insults are acceptable. I didn't want it to remain innocuous. It's happened before. Will it happen again? I hope not. Perhaps a little peer pressure might insure that wives stay out of the fray. You're not married, are you? -Greg

A rifle is a gun. A pistol is a gun. A shotgun is a gun. Yawn..... -Greg

Dene, you're being roasted now because you gave the context on the insult from Tex against your wife?? Unbelievable. He's proving that he's contemptible and there have been a few from his circle of friends that have called him on it, but I'm confused why Baker would allow the criticism simply because you (who's wife was insulted) chose to educate.
