I didnt read all your post remarksman, i think debbie's ok from the
few posts i (and you) have read.
I found your post to be needlesly offensive, i think your being a
dick.
Only thing is i dont know what "promise keepers" are.... if they are
like feminist Klu Klux clan (what a stupid name for a suposedly
fearsome organisation that is, why not call emselves nigger bashers
or something? maybe it means something in latin perhaps) then maybe i
need to re-read it.
