Good Grief! LOL! Well it would be funny if it was a joke. Puts me in mind of a field trip that my youngest daughter went on when she was in elementary school.

She wanted to take one of her compilation tapes to play on the trip and her favourite music at the time was The Clash and the Pogues. Before she went, I made her promise not give the school bus driver her tape to play on bus's sound system, which he regularly did for the kids and also not to let any other kids listen to her tape on their walkmans.

I explained that I wasn't so much concerned about Rudie Can't Fail or London Calling, but I figured the neighbourhood tight asses would definetiely not be able to handle their kids listening to The Old Main Drag from the Pogues Rum, Sodomy and the Lash and that discretion was sometimes the better part of valour. Never received a complaint on that one from the local morality brigade, so I assumed she complied. LOL
