Rick, you're just a youn slip of a thing, that's why you can't get away with it. Think about it; someone like Faith Petric, rightly or wrongly, is considered an "elder" (an age-ist statement in the wrong hands. Elder in experience and wisdom, yes, but she qualified for that decades ago. Elder in the chronological sense of elderly, that's the "wrongly" sense). She can get away with singing songs like "I'm looking for a woman with a chainsaw" and "Chopped Libber" in the most rabidly PC places (she lives in San Fransisco, after all). Some of the same people that applaud her performances would be offended by other performers doing the same songs.
