Re: Topless Gratitude



Nice try, Nate.  Not as funny or as smart as your dad, though.  Keep trying.

Note to other readers--remember that definition of "troll"?  Here's a new
one:  "flamebait," which my IT dictionary defines as :

"On the Internet, flamebait is a "posting" or note on a Web site discussion
forum, an online bulletin board, a Usenet newsgroup, or other public forum
that is intended to elicit the extremely strong responses characteristic of
flaming and active public discussions. To be effective, flamebait should be
a bit subtle (but not too subtle) so that potential flamers will "take the
bait." This term is similar to troll, which is an effort to get a reaction
from readers but not necessarily for the purpose of eliciting flames."
