Well, I'm sorry man. I'm just thinking about how stupid it would be for me to get all pissy because you're all mad because some other people are all insulted by some other people. That's pointless. Now I don't see why you have to scorn me just because I'm asking questions about a topic that was raised.<br><br>Am I asking too much? Why even talk about something if all we are going to do is reaffirm each other's suspicions without giving sense to anything?<br><br>If asking questions is what makes me an elitist hell-raiser, I'm happy to fill that role.<br><br>-- Charlie Alpha Roger Yankee Whiskey

Need to get it so your head won't fit through the door.....got to find some way of getting some political action going on Friday afternoons here.<br><br>

I never generalized on Native American sentiment. I'm just trying to see it CrazyEye's way since some tribes in Illinois see it the same way and have very valid complaints.<br><br>-- Charlie Alpha Roger Yankee Whiskey

Hey! I just realized I'm hugely offended. I'm a white male and I object to the following experssions:<br>White wash <br>Blinding white<br>fish belly white<br>ghost white<br><br>and the list goes on longer than I care to think. I want.. no, I demand that the use of the word 'white' be outlawed. anyone using that word should be cast out from society. Companies should be sued and manatory training should be assigned to all their imployees. <br><br>AH!!! The white out, liquid paper company should be hauled before the Supreme court for this outrage.<br><br>The White Sox should be disbanded!!! At once.<br><br>The person who coined the phrase 'tighty whity' has brough shame to us. <br><br>Oh man, I have a lot of work to do. <br><br>
