Why would you point out your interpretation of "gay", Johnny?
You sure that highschool sseetie wasn't a 'Danny'?


Ha, ha! That was a good one. No, her father was a 'Daniel' who wanted his kid named after him. When
born, the kid turned out to be female and got named 'Danette'. The next child to come along was a
boy, whom they named 'Daniel'.

I was pointing out only that fifty years ago, the word 'gay' actually meant 'happy'. I'm not sure
when the word became associated with homosexuals. I pointed it out because I thought it interesting
how the meaning of a word can change.

Hope that helps!
