    I do have a sense of humor but your posts are just creepy. Can you please stop the sexist comments?

    I'll second that. And enough with the bikinis, please. Unnecessary on this forum.

    Well Kelly, you keep addressing me so I answer you when you are ill-or uninformed. I can assure you that I never had a sexist thought in connection with you. And as for "creepy" - it's not in my vocabulary and reading my last posts here I can't see what you are aiming at. I'll make you a deal - you don't refer to me and I won't answer you. I'll do likewise, of course. As for JillM, I didn't know that b,,,,,, were proscribed in Riverside.

    Don.....When you floated the idea about bocce ball and referenced our new VM, because he was an Italian-American, I thought it was a bit of an ethnic slur. But you cleared that up...although I am still a bit dubious. But when you used "Bikini" with Bocce I was offended...as I'm sure most women that read it was. The whole subject of Bocce would have been recieved better, and taken more seriuously, had you not added "Bikini". I know you proposed this idea for Las Vegas...but do you really think that would float here????????

    A quick note out of my institutional memory: spatny had floated the bocce ball idea well before, maybe a yr or two, the new VM. My memory is not as clear to what extent the b---- was seriously tied to this idea. Bocce is a fun game without that accoutrement. I have a portable bocce set (just a bag of balls) that I regularly bring with me in my car. You just need a small bit of space to play.

    With apologies to The Godfather, before we go off to some place I 'll look to my wife and say, 'Don't forget the bocce balls'

    Thanks for that search, Chris. Some of my suggestions date back to 2004 - and as said, the Boards of hat area and the Chamber did nothing about any of them. Which was/is their right. It seems since the last election - or maybe it's just the hard times that accompany the tougher economic climate - the fun has gone out of our discussions. Contrary to some, I think we need more humor, parody, whatever. That's what I try for - but it ain't easy...
