Hi Michael,

MK*Hi Tree, interesting name youve chosen. Ever read the Celestine 
Prophecy. 
No. I haven't.
MK*.......... I was reading through the
  *recent messages and saw your commwents on the humor of G. Having not 
read the
  *"joke" itself I can and wouldn't make my opinion known. However, I 
agree with
  *part of what you said in reference to checking motives. I was 
wondering at the
  *strentgh of your response! Seems to have some resentment in there. 
Did this
  *trigger a  past event that is exorciseing this defect? 
The joke was 10 (or some other number) reasons why beer is better than 
women.
I said that I found it offensive, as a woman and as a recovering 
alcoholic.
Resentment?  No.  Just stating that I find the statement made by the 
'joke' offensive.
If standing up for myself as a woman and for women in general is a 
defect I'm defective!  I personally do not see it as a defect but a 
strength.
MK*Forgive and Let Go. Big hard pills to swallow but necessary for recovery.
There is really nothing to forgive...I still find it offensive and 
always will.
Let it go?
I will always voice my objections when women are demeaned.
ÿ
I hold *no* animosity toward the man who posted the joke.
peace,
Tree
