This is why I do not have children. My wife and I feel
that we're enjoying being adults at this time. Maybe we'll change later on,
who knows?

Hopefully not.

Back to the mild insults?

Uh, no.  How do you mean?  You say 'we enjoy being adults, maybe this will
change' and I say 'hopefully it won't.'  I don't get the insult or whatever
you
think I meant.  I didn't have any kind of implications in mind beyond what I
said.

All righty then. I took your response to mean "Hopefully we won't change our
minds and have kids"

Just one of those misintrepretations that happens in newsgroups sometimes.

No harm, no foul.

Frankly Mark, I think it is totally stupid that you have to go to such a
length to explain why you hold the opinion that you do not like JarJar. I
think it an even further insult that you have to qualify your explanations.
If Gungans were real beings then yes, I would feel you are bigotted, but the
dumb thing is you have to explain why you do not like a bunch of 1's and 0's.

Also, as far as the SW fan vs JarJar hating, I think Mark meant, even though
he is a big SW fan, he dislikes the character. I, being a smaller fan of SW
than Mark, also dislike this character. Therefore we must conclude that
*some* SW fans dislike JarJar. The range of fanaticism being at least
between myself and Mark.

Mark, please continue to produce your stories and let me know when they are
posted 'cause they are funny. :-)
