~Yeah Brina-- of course that's what it meant. But the thing is, I never
intended those bits of silliness to *go* to TMNT-L. I'm always careful about
that because I know there are people here who are offended by certain

freakin' QUEEN of Politically Correct!

characterization device. The point was to illustrate the tenderness and
naivitee underlying the tough skin of that homicidal maniac that we all know
and love. 'Kay?
