It sounds EXACTLY like an English speaker saying "Jew." As I mentioned, I consider this a good reason. And, let me guess... You STILL haven't watched the clip. Okay... So, tell me how I get my "blank check" to be an insensitive jerk. (Hey, YOU mixed the metaphor first...) You are obviously making good use of yours... and I'd hate to miss out. This is more verbose than my favorite idiot quote, which was "Use some tact, you fathead." You need to work on a more concise delivery. I've noticed that essentially every time someone gripes about some behavior on the part of others, correctly or incorrectly, they almost IMMEDIATELY exhibit that behavior on their own. So, why is it you complain about ME being an insensitive jerk (incorrectly, in this case) and then, in the very next paragraph you write, exhibit insensitive jerk behavior? Would you have felt better if I had written "Joo don't want to go DERE, puppy?" Is it the sound, or the spelling that has your knickers in a twist? (And, please do examine your answer for idiocy, as the potential for public humiliation is significant.) Peace, Warren E. Wolfe wizard at voyager.net
