In <1148@oddjob.UUCP> apak@oddjob.UUCP (Adrian Kent) says:
> "Salome, dear, NOT in the fridge."
Now, this was in a line of discussion accusing a person with the title
"Fr." of giving offense to women with a joke. Since the above is a
joke, and it can certainly be thought to be offensive to Christians, I
wonder what the motive was. "Revenge" and "hypocricy" spring to mind,
but as they say, "Never attribute to malice what can adequately be
explained by stupidity."
[ Well, no, I'm *not* accusing Adrian of stupidity... the saying about
malice is a *joke* folks. I think maybe Adrian was a little
careless... though I *would* be interested to hear just why an
offensive joke was posted in an article protesting offensive jokes,
with no clue as to the lesson this was supposed to impart to the
readers. ]
