[UC] Real People on the list

2007-06-06 Thread Hilary Bonta
Along those lines, Karen Whiteman Jones is a real person as well.  Just 
because you think her name is odd, doesn't make her some sort of made-up 
stalker.


I suppose I would qualify as one of the lurkers on the list, Ross.  But I 
certainly don't have time to write an introduction because I still need to 
clear out my inbox before running off to pick up my kid at school.


Maybe I would contribute more if I had time to sit in front of my computer.  
I might even feel compelled to contribute if I felt as though the discussion 
wouldn't devolve into a nasty argument.

My bad. In my diseased imagination, I thought maybe it was an alias for a
Karen who had a jones for whitemen.

I suppose I would qualify as one of the lurkers on the list, Ross.  But I

certainly don't have time to write an introduction because I still need to
clear out my inbox before running off to pick up my kid at school.

Maybe I would contribute more if I had time to sit in front of my

wouldn't devolve into a nasty argument.



Well, Hills, you certainly had time to write these 3 paragraphs. And if more
nice, gracious, polite folks like yourself would get off their butts and
contribute to the list, maybe it wouldn't be as nasty as it is.
