    Whats all the flap about some of you not wanting to see others beat a dead horse? Come on, can you think of anything with more intrinsic entertainment value or raw fun than beating a dead horse? I say, "Those who wish to should be allowed to swat away".

    While were at it, some of the "sacred cows" on this board probably deserve a good spanking as well. Think in terms of "The bigger they are, the harder they fall." Or "If they cant take the heat, they should never have allowed themselves to accept the responsibility of directing the kitchen troops.

    And while were at it, whats the big deal over age? Should a Nazis who retires to Bolivia be given a pass for war crimes just because he suddenly decides to write a few well-intoned self-help books? Think about it.

    It all comes down to culpability and accountability. Maybe some of you fawn over or get all obsequious whenever any of the current or ex members of the GB says or does something of note. Some of you obviously still hold these individuals in high regard. You speak of them in hushed tones as though they are somehow deserving of great admiration and respect.

    Sorry, not everyone does. Im all for giving these guys a few "shots" if it makes you feel better. Besides, the geriatric wise-guys at Brooklyn are already getting a ten-percent discount off there "Grand Slam" breakfast at Dennys, they dont need any additional perks from me.

    LOL. I give the aged respect for one reason, and one reason only: I'm gonna be aged one day, and I want to keep the trend going till then. Fortunately, it's not too hard, young minds are easily manipulated.
