I really did like this well thought out post from Chris.

 

It was in reference to someone else who was offended because they

took exception to a bit of " punny " humor...

 

It reminds me of the time I went in for a massage, and the well

meaning massage therapist told me the book I was reading was " of the

devil " and I should NOT read it.

 

I know the person meant well, and meant FOR REAL to save me from

going to HELL...

 

....but I got her ass fired!

 

Her job, when she was working on me, was to massage the neck and the

injured left should/spine...

 

....NOT to tell me I was going to HELL because I happened to be

reading " Edgar Cayce on Mysteries of the Mind " by Henry Reed.

 

AND she was told by the doctor where to do the massage, neck and

shoulder, BUT...

 

....she chose to massage the feet first BECAUSE she thinks that a

foot massage should be part of any treatment...

 

....so I made a list and got her fired!

 

Now, group, why did I do that?

 

Is it because I'm huggy feely?

 

 

ps. and, even though there might be humor, is there really???
