    I just fancy Whoopie whatever colour, Alisha Dixon now, I would if I could but would probably fail through agist and fattist predudice on her part. There again maybe she just has taste and that would knock me back.

    Ive written a couple of things on this subject since I asked this stuff to be passed on in full.....youve commented on neither.....Neither could I have expected you to....I dont think you could have the time or the structure behind you (One of your moderators in an attempt to explain himself penned something he believed in called "acceptable racism"....?????)....Unfortunately Racism is governed by semantics as well as actions and I believe here it should be based on the former....what people write...the words. Youve just said...."That forces me to judge you......".....I dont think your job should be judging people!!!!...just the words....Articles should be judged on the words alone....Its a truly daunting job...Im pleased you "have people you now class as friends"....I hope you can bring yourself to "moderate" what they all write and not become the "Editor"....two entirely different things...

    Anyway...all the best for the future....I`ll be an avid reader and not a contributor in future.....absolutely no axe to grind ...sincere best wishes...Dyavvy

    We have active moderators too and I'm sure they can figure out their role without your help

    They have opinions and they share them with us daily. I would like them to be moderate in the opinions of others too as part of their role.

    If people write foul and degenerate opinions about any group of people -excepting Newcastle of course - I want it removed.

    Dyavvy, I have been out all day and just catching up with the forum and I'm shocked because I seem to have upset you and I dont know why.
    Your articles that I did not comment on, not sure what they are, if its articles on here then I dont comment on everything but its nothing personal and I'm not sure about the moderator comment either. Maybe you missundertand what I'm trying to say when I say judge you, friends on line, maybe I have not put it over right but I was actually agreeing with you.
    I hope you continue contributing Dyavvy and certainly dont want you upset by anything I have said, was never my intention mate and I appologise for any missunderstanding.

    Well Syd. watched this one over the week end, some comments worth a thought or two, but nothing mind boggling. Nobody on NOT606, has came up with the meaning of life. Pity Realy, means this topic is answerless and unfortunately endless.

    Is that evryone was born for one thing, all men to wonder at my looks and fine body. All women to admire those sadi looks and want my body.

    That my version but I seem in a minority with those views, no idea why!

    Can't argue with you there mate, i like a drop of the German stuff myself having worked in Bremen Haven a good few years back when you were actually allowed to have a couple of brews at work, even had vending machines pumping out Becks in the Fab Shop.

    Racism is disgusting cowardly behaviour as far as I'm concerned and there is no need for it whatsoever. I remember travelling down to the West Brom game last season on the Bage Page buses and there was a group of lads at the back and the filth coming out there mouth was terrible (calling the people of Bromwich p*aki bastards, w*gs etc)with the steward on the bus unwilling to do anything about it my complaints fell on deaf ears and all I got from the lads was **** off it's football what do you expect? Well I certainly don't expect that at football and nor should we have to put up with it! They then had the audasity to sing Oh Shola Ameobi the hypocritical little twats!

    and its that I'm asking about, we all have our share of idiots but how they cheer on the very people they shout about is beyond me, maybe we have answered the question.... They do it because they are idiots.

    It doesn't sound like you're racist, it sounds like you're automatically drawn to the best vision!!! Now if Whoopie Goldberg had RW's body...then that would make the decision a little more interesting wouldn't you say?? Oh, I am RW by the way, and I CAN walk on water!!!

    Debbie - IF you have RW's body then can you hear Syd's drool dripping from over the pond? loved my time in the US but found Texas toooo hot and humid - prefer Wisconsin, more like the UK!!

    Nope...can't hear any tongue wagging, drooling going on way over here!! I think, I agree with you about Texas. It is hot and humid, but tolerable if you have a pool to jump into, and I also prefer the North. Their winters are much different as well as their summers, but the bugs are much larger, even the pesky gnats are the size of a Texas fly. Can't say, "the bigger the better" in that category!
