Damn... ya got me.

It is absolutely plausible that the PC crowd would do something like this.

I hope a wayward piece of an alternative newspaper classified section flew in your face advertising this "service".

Otherwise, I don't want to know how you know about this practice.

Or desire to want this done. Or to do it.

I'm sure people that go to med school to train to look at "holes" all day long don't care.

Besides, early attempts at bleaching the other end led to some pretty bad dental problems.

Will history repeat?

Well at least they weren’t called “nappy-headed black holes.”

Okay, how long till the first post to realize this is a joke.

ROTFL! I tip my hat to you, sir!

Super high gravity locations are the remnants of giant stars that collapse into a substance so dense that it has a gravitational pull that consumes all matter that comes near it. "They're the bad boys of the cosmos." says Nokidi Imsure, Professor of Astronomic Anthropology at Howyflyl University. "You would definitely want to cross the street if you saw one coming."

Almost got me but I caught on about half way through. “Coucil on Nomenclatures” was an early tip-off though. Ha!

Ummm... guys (& gals)... It wasn’t so long ago that the “Jewfish” was ‘officially’ renamed the “Goliath Grouper” because of perceived insensitivity toward our friends of the Jewish persuasion. Now I don’t know any fisherman that consults the ACLU (or whoever) when he boats a fish... (let’s see, what shall I call this? No, can’t call it THAT.) Nevertheless, all the fish guides & aquariums will reinforce the use of “Goliath Grouper” until us newly-defined ‘insensitives’ die off.

THIS is entirely possible! Good satire, though.

Sorry, due to circumstances beyond my control I am no longer allowed to respond to threads like this one.

The activist trolls who abuse the abuse button, and the mods who empower them...

Just saying.

Not quite sarcasm. Not much of a parody. Might pass as black humor.

Just out of curiosity, do you enjoy Florence King?
How about P.J. O'Rourke?

Speaking of which, have you heard the latest report from al-Jazeera?
They signed up the Muppets to air weekly episodes of Pigs in Space! in all muslim countries.

Just a rumor, I think.

Is it because black holes may not exist?

Presumably all White Dwarves will need to be renamed Full Spectrum Little People? :-p

The guy that thought this up probably graduated from the Sam Houston Institute of Technology.

I’ll have to see if his name is on the alumni “list”.

Go Plungers! [GRIN]
