Having yet to see the movie, I agree completely. Do Not Disrespect A Man's Dog.

I understand. I agree. And yet, the statistics on incidence of sexual assault upon a child show that a stranger commits about 7% of them. 92+% of all sexual assaults are committed by someone known to the child - and assault by a stranger is far more likely to be reported than that done by a trusted adult. As a survivor who found reporting to be a less than positive result, I applaud your care of your grandson and give caution that your "bad guys" are far more likely to be closer to home.
This is quite the case of judging a book by its' cover, however that cover may have changed. If we are ever to make inroads upon the actual problems in our society, we need to look far deeper to accept people for who they are and help them be good people when they have problems rather than force them to push it all into hiding.

In a nation of over 300 million people, overseen by security cameras, cell phones, and "anecdotal evidence", finding an "actual" event of one's professed bias seems almost guaranteed.

thanks to republican fcc: opinion: (silence)

That middle pic has been around for years. Nudity is not abhorrent.... some of us just don't look so good naked anymore.

ok, you are going to hate me for this: for 14 years, my wife made my lunch for me. Every day. And, sometimes my work was very taxing and emotionally draining, but that little 1/2 hour I spent with my wife's expressed love helped me through the day. It reminded me why I put up with the stress of the job.
I, um, I lost my wife. And, I just can't make a bologna sandwich that makes me feel loved like she somehow could. So, ok, be pissed, be angry, the little spoon thing was funny. I would have laughed my butt off. But please, never make a man's moment of respite from the crap we deal with at work, that moment where we can remember why we work so hard, be disappointing.

bah! who needs definitions.
Seriously, tho- a good friend of mine has let me know he is like this. I don't understand it. But, I realized that if I care enough about him to try to understand who he is then I have to take him where he is. If I just want him to fit into my little definitions and brackets for my own comfort then I will likely lose a very good friend. Sorry for the book here.
