Nobody said we don't have favorite boxes, Ryan. I'm quite fond of the
Fauntleroy box and the Camp Long box, myself. (Among others...) However,
it wasn't that you mentioned your favorites, it's that you dismissed the
rest as cruddy, and went so far over into the Male Chauvenist Pig arena as
to start bringing in...what was it?....Roseann Barr and Meg Ryan as a
comparison. (And we won't even go there as to why -that- is offensive. To
use your logic, you should go on over and take a women's studies class
sometimes if you take offense.)

Mentioning favorites is not a problem. Mentioning that the rest are
crap...now THAT is a problem. Especially since, as far as I can recall
from the boxes I've been getting lately, you haven't been here in quite
some time and wouldn't know what you're talking about. To clarify
further: being honest as a politician isn't falling on those who were
offended; it's about you digging yourself in further with every post, and
showing off your ignorance in the process.

From now on, you're filtering to the trash. Thread dead on my
end. Whoever said that ALL stamps are treasure -- you're on my Cool List.
