The PINK FOLDER

It's just a shame when you get to (Danno's age?) that its less a function of "undesirable stimuli" and more about age and alcohol consumption (hence Viagra and the "Arab Strap").

So if an old guy is on Viagra and doesn't lose his ####### on seeing another #######, did Viagra turn him gay?

[Trumplestiltskin 5,791]

Possibly.... If he slaps on a ####### ring, I'd say absolutely.

Shows with gays could lose Florida tax credit

(AFP) – 8 hours ago

MIAMI — Florida lawmakers are considering a "family friendly" bill that would deny tax credits to films and television shows with gay characters in favour of those promoting traditional values.

The proposal, which has fuelled a heated controversy for its discriminatory nature, would increase current tax credits from two to five percent of productions costs for shows considered "family friendly."

Those productions are defined as films or TV shows with a "cross-generational appeal" that includes a "responsible resolution of issues." Smoking, profanity, nudity and sex are also out, along with what the state's sex crime laws define as "obscene."

The little-known provision was slipped into a 75-million-dollar incentive package that Republican leaders who hold the majority in the state House of Representatives hope will bring more entertainment industry jobs to Florida.

"I want Florida to be known for making those kinds of movies: Disney movies for kids and all that stuff. Like it used to be, you know?" Republican state Representative Stephen Precourt told The Palm Beach Post.

Precourt, whose district includes Walt Disney World, denied his bill targeted gays by using the term "non traditional family values."

Yet when asked whether shows with gay characters should receive the tax credit, he said "that would not be the kind of thing I'd say that we want to invest public dollars in."

Gay rights groups have blasted the proposed legislation, saying it subsidizes discrimination.

"Instituting 1950s-style movie censorship does nothing to support real-life families or help Florida's struggling economy," said Ted Howard, executive director for Florida Together, a coalition of 80 groups that advocate for equal rights.

That's stupid.

[Ban Hammer 13,656]

I have and do call you a wanker, because of these sorts of posts. I don't hate people based on whether they are wankers or not.

actually, i believe your post in the past i was referencing quite clearly said you didn't like me. so your previous statement in this thread of "I don't dislike Charles" is a lie.

It is really not a good idea for you to bait, Charles, even if you don't have your "mod hat" on in this forum. Kinda suggests that you can't separate your personal issues from your responsibilities.

Kinda like the top down dictation, against the popular will, to legalize gay marriage despite the impracticality of implementation.

The Vermont gay marriage law was implemented by our elected legislature, passed both houses and was signed by our 4 term Republican governor. Dictation? No one will be unelected for voting in favor of it. We go skiing and fishing and hunting and stuff like that, plus we work and care about our families and do not want laws which tell other people what they can do in their bedrooms. Or what has to be between the legs of their partner in life. Frankly, my dear, we don't give a damn.

Hey I was told woman are allowed to change their minds. Maybe that was a lie.

[Peikko 1,575]

Maybe I did, I don't remember it. I can only say that I don't have any strong feelings about you Charles, so I in general, I don't dislike you. I can't see why it matters either to be honest. It's not like I have any responsibility to behave in any particular way on VJ, now is it?

you don't remember that lengthy rant? sure seemed like some strong feelings

[Peikko 1,575]

No, I don't remember anything about any rant. I just remember calling you a wanker.

[chri'stina 190]

MC - How could you forget that you said things that either were obvious insults or hints at your strong dislike of Charles? I personally don't care one bit if you and Charles get along or not. But it's obvious in some threads, around the time Charles became a dep mod, your strong dislike for him. Again, I don't really care if you like him or not, but why do I remember and you don't?
