I totally agree with Desi in post #185 by the way.
When a person is working in the public eye they take on certain responsibilities with it!

Desi your # 191
This reminds me of my cobbers boat they called it "The Far Canal"
We were going to call a Standard bred by this name but it didn't get passed the censor . We thought it would be a real hoot when it got to the races and the race caller had to call it in a race . But whether the name jinxed it or not, it never got to the races.

I was once suckered well and truly by a guy who told me his boat was named "Far Call." I thought that was quite romantic, you know, calling in at faraway ports and so on. Then the penny dropped as I repeated it aloud and everyone fell about laughing.

Hey Kragus, methinks you were dead right thefre. And whats more this country isn't the only one that does things like that.
""By firing Williams for making a comment deemed insulting to Muslims, NPR facilitated radical Islamists in enforcing sharia law against ‘defamation’ of Islam. And it paid back the far Left multi-billionaire George Soros for his $1.8 million donation to NPR by dismissing an employee for the ‘fireable’ offense of expressing his feelings on the hated Fox News network.""
