I realize old Wilson was being facetious but there is a far better way to
express it: "I will not abide that proposition."

I hope this helps.

Yes. It demonstrates in spades that Winston [Wilson???] had, and I have,
far
better ears than you for the language.

Not to mention at least some sense of humor.



Oops! I must have been subconsciously been thinking of his Auntie.

Ofttimes a sense of humor goes a long way towards masking a lack of
knowledge.

didn't someone post a while back that Wilbur is a Jew? If that is
true, that raises him up a notch in my book. If it's not true, well,
I understand.



Not likely. He's been a racist for the yrs he's been on Usenet.

Don't look now, but that is and of itself is a racist remark.

Au contraire, a sense of humor most always reveals an insight into
knowledge.

Really? How so? I'm not putting him a racial class, although I'd suggest 3rd
grade... again.

And, I suppose, you never hear that term from any Jews, right?\

Sure. So, what's your point? Because one person uses a term, all people of
that ethnic background are guilty? What about the Christian who uses it of
himself when around Jewish friends. Would he be a racist of his own race? I
think you're grasping at straws.
