No, I think Pete's a bit more straight-laced in the humor department
than myself, and there's nothing wrong with his old-fashioned sense of
honor. But I know he has a good heart, all that blather about him
supposedly being racist notwithstanding.

Pete is at a stage in his life when many of the ideas we kick around
like hackey-sacks seem a bit more personally consequential than either
of us appear to take them. That's also why he tends to be more
circumspect about the abstract stuff that ruffles my feathers.

Duh, I know Bruce and Fabio aren't Latin. I just thought you were a
"man of the world" and not confined to borders. Could it be true, that
I'm better traveled, yea, even more worldly, than you?

Olguita? Lame. You're going to have to find an original angle on this,
or I simply won't be offended. ;)

Well that's mighty whitey of you. ;)

- Publius

"It ought never to be forgotten, that a firm union of this country,
under an efficient government, will probably be an increasing object
of jealousy to more than one nation of Europe; and that enterprises to
subvert it will sometimes originate in the intrigues of foreign
powers, and will seldom fail to be patronized and abetted by some of
them. Its preservation, therefore ought in no case that can be
avoided, to be committed to the guardianship of any but those whose
situation will uniformly beget an immediate interest in the faithful
and vigilant performance of the trust." [Federalist Papers #59]
