ok… gonna take a stab at this:
- cruel and unusual… like kids, all forms of punishment fit into 3 catagories; pleasure, hunger, pain… can take or give any of the 3 depending on the perspective of the person to be punished and to take away pain from those who enjoy it would be unusual
- lowering the bar on Holidays… everyday is a holiday in the Louisiana education system (may take some heat for that one)
- kids and animals that roam… that is just Joe’s neighborhood and is a realist point of view and not a quote!
- Sher, why are you sniffin your photographer
- Trish always looking on the “UltraBrite” side… wanting a president with positive teeth!

one more thing… just learned some HTML!!! when you put a lil left pointing thing (shift ,) in your message, all verbiage following that is truncated! so, what was to finish off from above was the phrase: redundancy in “quotes”
