	Trisha, when I read your first flame it really sent me into gales of
laughter. I couldn't stop the belly laughs for about five minutes. I thought
it was an excellent imitation of Joan Rivers. I just couldn't resist giving
you my Don Rickles imitation. I didn't think you would take it so seriously.
Seventy five percent of the "roasts" I've seen at various company gatherings
have been worse. I know you don't look anything like my characterization
otherwise it really wouldn't be funny.
	You got my gender wrong though when you called me a bimbo. Bimbo is
an anti-female term. Try "hockey puck". And I do think we shouldn't use any
four-letter profanity since it tends to pull down the humor.
	Before you put out your flame I had cut back the number of nets I
was posting, but some of the people responding to me have really gone
berserk posting to net.followup and god knows what else, so while I was
flaming I was really in agreement with you.
	So lets lighten up and not take ourselves so seriously.

					Cheers!
