GEEZ! One huge, lingering fight on this list is enough! Barrie: Love the humor, keep it coming, ALL of it! BUT- I hardly see what Ken wrote as any type of threat. Ken: Please don't try to censor what I read. Jay Lenno and David Letterman do far worse every night on national television. Change the channel. Suggestion: Some of the humor has been coming across with good titles in the headers (i.e.: "Clean," "Dirty," etc..) How about we continue with this voluntary rating system so those like Ken can delete before reading and the rest of us can enjoy. You know, I didn't like the one a couple of days ago that contained a list of slang names for sex or masturbation or something like that, so I just deleted it. I would never dare to tell someone to stop sending it, I would just hope that people who post the tacky stuff would consider the range of this audience. I for one would HATE to lose someone like Ken Burton off of this list.
