MMario : "... something that bugs me is the posting of the cutesy - spam-oid "joke" lists - which I usually have received a half dozen times in e-mailalready into the forum."

I assume it is possible that you are referring the jokes I have submitted to the joke threads lately, although I received no PM from you on this matter. Certainly, I did not wish to offend. Certainly, I had no idea that you had already received six copies of each joke. Certainly, I figured you for a 'Cat with the capacity to refrain from reading threads which bug you. However, in the interest of being a good boy sprout, I shall not post any more jokes. I hope this brightens your day by removing one more crumb from your breakfast table.
