I have zero problem with YOU believing that.  I will NOT lose ONE second of sleep, knowing that YOU think I have a comprehension problem...zero.

But, back to the issue of what is acceptable in public. I still agree with Olias and Anne that it would be nice if everybody behaved in public, but we all know it ain't gonna happen, and I sure don't want behavior police lurking around watching me and ... uh ... er ...   ::)  :spooked:. Guess I'd better get back to work.

  If you read the papers and watch the news.  Look at all the laws pass to give police more power.  All of the police abuse, I would really like to know how many people the cops beat and shoot to death every year.  The number grows and grows and they all get off.   :rant:

  We are now living in a police state and if something isn't done, it's going to get worse.  Especially since the politicians are making the cops revenue collectors to make money for the powers that be.  Towns, cities, counties, states, federal government, cops, lawyers and judges.  It sure is a money making, deadly racket.   :rant:  :angry:

who gets the money? is there a swear jar? we had a swear jar  my kids made a fortune from neigbors, uncles and their dad.  it was a gaint plastic coke bottle.
