[meteorite-list] Where is an admin when one is NEEDED? WAS: Re: FW: AD - SYLACAUGA - Rare Lock of Anne Hodge'sHair -Ultra-Rare!

It was a simple joke that got blown out of proportion.  Everyone liked
it last year - no complaints then.  It would have been dropped and
forgotten by now if some busybodies with nothing better to do, had not
made a mountain out of a molehill.

Let's just drop this nonsense and get on with meteorites.

Last time I post a friggin joke to a bunch of politically-correct Joes
whose wives carry around the family jewels in a coin purse.

If anyone should be offended, it should be a relative of Anne Hodges -
not some self-appointed bad-taste cops.

Maybe one of the joke-cops would volunteer to be a hall monitor for
all of us - Regine?  John?  Farmer?

That's my last word on this.  Hate me if you want.  Frankly, I have
bigger problems to worry about right now.  Offending some panty-waist
is not amongst my worries right now.
