		<description><![CDATA[Josh,

Forgive me if you&#039;ve established this in a previous post, but if offenses are relative, based on the perspective of the person affected, why would you believe that the standard by which an offense is deemed offensive is absolute?

In other words, if offenses are inherently relative, why do you seem to believe that there is an absolute standard broken by such offense? Isn&#039;t it enough to know that it was relatively offensive, if not absolutely?

		<description><![CDATA[:)    Let&#039;s see---Josh wasn&#039;t even in the conversation earlier.  Just Frreal and Bighouse.  Now check the timing:

#73  6:08 P.M.  Joshua
#74  6:12 P.M.  BigHouse

I will vacate the premises, but I think Josh and Bighouse---and maybe Frreal are all the same person.  I&#039;m starting to get scared.  :)

I&#039;m outta here. :)]]></description>
