EVERYONE is constantly offended by EVERYTHING. In fact Felix Lugo's name offends me because my parents were killed by lions while on safari in Africa, and Felix is also a name of a cartoon cat. I'm appalled that Felix's parents could have named their child "Felix" seeing as it's offensive to people who have had thier parents eaten by lions. ;-) Not that I'm trivializing your struggle in your every day life, against bigotry, but to draw offense from Felix's statement is a little weak, I think, for an adult. Mission for humanity: stop being so offended, and stop suing each other. We'll be much more happy! - db -- ---- my opinions are my own, not my employer's --- "You fill in the mortar, I build the wall." "...a secret stigma, weeping willow, a diminished carnival of sorts."
