Motherboard? Daughter Board? male and female connectors in deference to the Gender neutral crowd?

I am surprised they haven't banned the British from calling a cigarette a FAG in public places.

I have a picture of a no smoking sign in a Santa Monica park. Public Park....baseball field. God, I am Glad I left Ca. It would take a bunch of money to get me to go back there.

I'm waiting for Berkley to dismantle their Masters program. This is not only culturally insensitive but just think how the dumb asses feel. :rolleyes:

On the other hand I've decided that it's a little too much to hope for that insulting ones intelligence become politically incorrect. :D

And here I thought I had proposed the solution to gender conflicts when I used gelding as a verbal gerund in the offer under my avatar!

10-15 yrs ago they were saying in CA you couldn't use such words as Master Bedroom in real Estate ads. Did they ever follow through on that? Been to Ca 3 times. Twice for Sartin workshops, once for a Dodger game.

Geez...What next? Are they going to ban the word "machine" if Schwarzzennegger (possible sp.) is recalled like Davis was? :D

Hows about the MASTERS degree at the local university? Is that out the window also? Where does the MADNESS end?

Dave,

Thanks for the link to the interesting article. After reading it, all I can say is what John Davidson and Cathy Lee Crosby used to declare, when they were hosts on one of their old TV shows..."THAT'S INCREDIBLE!"

It seems to me that the Political Correctness Bunch have far, far too much time on their hands. They, evidently, spend (waste) their entire life diligently searching behind every nook and cranny in all kinds of media for things by which to be offended.

I remember a few years back some feminist group found the words to Billy Joel's song "Just The Way You Are" offensive and tried to make a big deal out of it in the media.

The only thing that keeps many people from being a perfect ass is they have hemorrhoids.
