Cut "to the chase" for my email address.

A Jew calls his mother in Florida. "Mom, how are you?"

"Not too good,"says the mother. "I've been very weak."

The son says, "Why are you so weak?"

She says, "Because I haven't eaten in 38 days."

The man says, "That's terrible. Why haven't you eaten in 38 days?

The mother answers, "Because I didn't want my mouth filled with food if
you called."

It's common courtesy and respect.

It's never good to give gratuitous offense.

for me, these are really the more compelling arguments on this (and
other) issue(s).

What does Robert Byrd's lawn sprinkler sound like?

Spic, spic, spic, spic, spic, spic, CHINK, nigga-nigga-nigga-nigga, WOP, spic,
spic...

OTOH, I think everything and everyone ought to be called Siobhan. Think about
how easy it'd make things..."OK, Siobhan, to get to Siobhan's, you go past
Siobhan's and Siobhan's, and turn at Siobhan's. Go 2 blocks on Siobhan Street
and take a left onto Siobhan. Go 3 blocks, and take a right onto Siobhan. Go
past Siobhan's and Siobhan's, and there you a Siobhan's. Don't forget to set
the parking brake, though...she lives on Siobhan Hill..." And it'll end all
strife - "Did you just call me a 'Siobhan' you sorry Siobhan!?" "Hell, no, I
called you 'Siobhan', Siobhan..." "Oh, sorry, Siobhan...nevermind, then..." And
the big plus is that if people would start saying "yada da da da da" at random
times, life would occasionally sound sorta like a "Crew Cuts" song...

While I have no dog--not a reference to any human, real or imagined-- in
this fight, I can't imagine referrin' to a Native American's/Indian's (?)
*partner* as his/her "squaw," as the word isn't really part of my everyday
usage. However, the fact that an idividual refers to his
spouse/partner/wife as a "squaw" affects me in no way. If his
spouse/partner/wife/"squaw" doesn't take issue with being called a "squaw,"
why should I be offended, as long as he doesn't call my
spouse/partner/wife/"squaw," father's wife/spouse/partner/"squaw,"
brother-in-law's wife/spouse/partner/"squaw" a "squaw?" Which, by the way,
I'm not certain that *I* would be offended, in any case?
