When a woman calls me a boy, I immediately think (now's my chance). I tell her, "If you see a boy, you kiss 'im." I've gotten lucky a time or twice like that(8-). But. it don't always work(8-(. When another male calls me a boy, I usually don't even give it a thought. In all actuality, I really don't care as long as ya don't call me late for dinner(8-). As far as addressing the females goes, from talking to my female friends I've concluded that they don't care either (that is, most of 'em don't). 'Course, I never did call any woman anything just to be belligerant. Hmm. Some folks I know (of Scotch/Irish descent) call 'em Lassies whether they're young or old...but, I think that really means girl. Well, enough of my cra ---er--- stuff fer now... The Frye in the ointment...the novacaine in the vaseline...the- Aw, to hell with it! Tom Frye
