I understand...I was referring more to the argot heard by people calling each other "Dog! Wassup?!"

Never understood that. I saw George Clinton on MTV years ago, and every other word was "Dog".

Reminds me of when I used to go to the local market, and the guy behind the counter had a T-Shirt that had a picture of Malcolm X, and the words "Don't Try To Understand...It's A Black Thing"

So I wanted to make a T-Shirt with a picture of Beethoven on it, with the words "Don't Try To Understand, It's A White Thing," but I wasn't sure if the guy would think I was being a rascist!!

Anybody in a mood to give a recap of the past two hours? I stepped out to go to the gym. Iraqi TV.....back on. Is this correct? Any news on the uprising at Basrah? Or the chemical weapons? Is Daschle still saddened?

In catching up I noticed a couple of things: I, too, have noticed that Mansoor Ijaz has not been on Fox recently. Someone said that a lot of times he goes quiet (so to speak) to check his contacts back in the Middle East. His analysis is always exceptional (in my opinion), and I'm sure he will appear when he has some information. He is also often a guest colomnist on National Review, but I have not seen one of his columns in a while either. Secondly, as someone in their early 20's, I can tell you that their is no method in the meaning of calling someone dog. It just emerged. It's kind of like calling someone gee. A friendly greeting so to speak, kind of silly, but nonetheless harmless.

Lol, classical pianist Conde Rice might argue with you. (^:

Hand 'em a copy of this (I've been meaning to make business cards): Proclamation of Amnesty and Pardon Granted to All Persons of European Descent - Dr. Walter E. Williams.

Go for: "It's a GUY thing - we don't understand it either..."

A while back I had a BIG black roommate named Vince. One day he replaced his ummm "french All You All" base ball cap with one with just his initial.

I looked up, way up, and said, "Ah! You got a Malcolm the Fifth hat!"

Thought he was going to give himself a hernia laughing...
