    I also don't know about this. Was there any official punishment for him?

    Yeah, I know that, Doc - but since the pissing match, am I off target?

    Look, I've been hanging around SJ since Rachel told Texas to kiss her ass, and you've been varsity talent since soon after you showed up. But on the JW subject, you're like Falwell on gays - no willingness to even consider doing anything but condemn.

    Aw, Dools, you're taking TBL post and this post and combining them to define me, and I think we both know that's not either accurate or fair.

    Dools, just curious: When 21 posted basically the same point I made about the reaction to Whitlock, why no response?

    Yes, you're still off target. We got along until he took off for six months after some thread about race. I only started to dislike him when, after a six-month hiatus, every post of his was used to bash anyone on this site with an anonymous handle. And this was all after he and I got along for my first year-plus here. I honestly think you may be mistaking me for someone else.

    How 'bout we round it back on topic and quit whining/worrying/whatevering?

    I'm not sure if whatevering is a word, but it should be.

    Well, Doc, that's not my impression.

    I'll admit I'm hardly researching these things, but maybe you'd at least consider the possibility that I formed that impression because you've been pounding him so much lately? And I'll do my part to pay my best attention when you post on the JW subject. As I said, you're a good SJ read. I respect the role you play here on many other subjects.

    Would be a good euphemism.

    "My gal came over, we had a little wine, and before you know it, we were whatevering."

    Or it calls into question your perceptions pf the speech. Just a thought.
