"How amusing that someone complaining about the separation of church and state, and claiming that morals are not taught in schools, uses extreme profanity in the title of a thread on an open forum." (JohnP)

Profane? I can't see profaniuty in that thread title. "To treat sacred objects with irreverence, violence or disrespect." I suppose you could say that sexual activity is in some sense a sacred object, and that in some way the thread title is treating it with disprespect. At a pinch.

CarolC: Geordies come from Yorkshire in the same sense that Yankees come from Texas. There used to be a little bit of Yorkshire which to outsiders where the accent sounded a bit like Geordie, but they cut it off and made a separate county called Cleveland. And they don't count as Geordies either.

Here is a site arguing about these things Basically Geordie means from Newcastle, but it's extended often to mean the people who speak thelanguage, living in the area where the language is spoken, which is essentially that part of the old kingdom of Northumbria which is on the English side of the biorder with Scotland.
