RB meant that the avatar reminds her of the GA who was Hello Kitty and that you are not her. It has nothing to do with race.

A cute story that is probably more appropriate for the Lw/K Board, but what the heck:

My 23-month-old little St. Penske, Jr. refers to nursing as "boodies." The other day I was standing outside the nursery when our wet nurse was nursing him and chattering to him and she asked him, "Are you my little boodie boy?"

Of course, my impulse control went out the window at that point and I exclaimed, "Oooo, yes mama, that me!"

Needless to say I was a little red faced after that incident.
I need a wet nurse.

That's a funny way to tell her that you're sorry you implied she was a bigot.

It's also a funny way to try to express that she's not stupid.

What makes you think there is a "gang up on you thing?" Couldn't it just be that everyone independently finds you annoying and vapid? Perhaps because you are annoying and vapid.

"everyone" does not include the friends I have made here. That is why I stay. Not for the people I "annoy", enough already.

I don't think she was any kind of bigot, but apparently the word means something different to you.

eta: Can someone PM me and tell me what happened to RT?

It's been an emotional roller coaster for Landis

"No, c'mon man," Landis told Sports Illustrated when asked if he did it.

I'm sure Lance was clean though.
The "cycling analyst" on SportCenter this morning was saying the he didn't have elevated testosterone levels, but instead had an unusually low level of epitestosterone, leading to a blown ratio. I don't know what that means exactly, but the analyst suggested that it was strange and not necessarily a sign of using performance enhancers.

Of course, the amazing performance on the day of the blown test is damning circumstantial evidence in the court of public opinion.

Fine, Ty, maybe she didn't mean it or it or it wasn't being a bigot. I am not going to split hairs over this one. I'm tired. It has been a busy week and I am fried.

I find it ironic I am always called upon to play nice and be fair and rise above baiting when certain parties refuse to do so. Ironic since I am the peon over here. Where is your tolerance?

Yes, that and the odd perception that everyone in the sport dopes. Not sure where people get that idea.

Looks like we are down to the short strokes on this one.
