I love it when you rant and rave.... you brought up some very good 
points and educated me on a few things..... I never stopped to think 
about the car vs sex death issue.... yeah, I drive everyday and I'm sure
that I have a much better chance of dying in a car accident than by 
a sexually transmitted illness even if I slept around...  
It's like back in the late 70's when Jaws came out.... no one wanted to 
go swimming.... they were certain that there was this big shark lurking 
under the water waiting to grab them.... they built shark towers and thi
guy with a whistle would yell and blow his whistle whenever a shark was
sighted... well, there are sharks all over the beaches and always have 
been.... and exactly how many people ever really get attacked by a 
shark? Not many....... but I guess the difference is.... when you are 
driving, you are in control... even if an accident happens.... you are 
in control of that vehicle....   you can't control a shark.... you can't
control a sexually transmitted illness. Does that make any sense....? 
Probably not.... I think it's the painkillers.....
