I am glad other people here see it the same way I do. There is just nothing funny about sadistic acts, rape, child abuse, the holocaust, etc. Once when I was at work, I overheard some people telling jokes, and although I didn't catch everything that was said, one of the jokes was about rape. It made me sick! They had been telling rather non-funny/crude jokes by my standards for a while already and that one was enough to make me lose my cool and bang out the "Confrontation" song from "Les Mis" (I work as a musician), and funny enough, it worked. They left. Lol! I wasn't sorry to see them go. Capri If you e-mail me directly, remove 'nojunk.' from the address. Flame/trolls will be ignored, posted or reported.
