- Wow, nobody ever called me "Jewboy" before! I guess the Aryan features from
- Mom's side of the tree throws people off...
-
- Now, come on there, son. Didn't the sign say, "New Ways of Thinking"? Racial,
- ethnic, and religious slurs are very much OLD ways of thinking... Hey, why not
- throw in sexism while we're at it here (re: DUMB BLOND JOKES)... You're a
- smart, witty, little codger -- granted not too pretty to look at -- but then
- why d'ya act so stupid sometimes?
-
- And just to throw off that stereotypical liberal image that might be congeling
- there in your synapses, you better watch that you're a better, quicker shot than
- me when you try to get me to dance: my Mossberg's always locked and loaded...
- I never had a LEGAL reason to shoot someone before -- and I wouldn't even have
- to grab a knife out of the kitchen.
