Kind of like the Southern Belle who says “Bless your heart” when she really means something Very Rude that isn’t Happy Birthday.....

Well that all depends on the tone of voice, you understand. Sometimes it CAN truly mean "Bless Your Heart". Of course, if you're dishing on someone else with your friends, "Bless Her Heart" WOULD likely have followed some catty remark. ;o)

Publius6961, do you remember what Marin was like before the Liberal Locusts arrived? It was wonderful. And then they arrived spreading dissent, fear, paranoia, anger all under the mask of "new ideas": EST, Moonies, Synnanon, blue microdot, thai sticks, open marriage, polarity balancing, rolfing, primal screaming.

I was a huge fan of hot tubs before living in Marin, while in Marin, still am. Still have peacock feathers on display. :)
