Carlos, I quoted it, which is not the same as using it. It's an offensive word, no matter who uses it, IMO.

its exactly the same as using it. you are still saying it. using quotes or quoting it does not make it safe for you to use it. but i dont want to argue semantics, usage and the like. and i dont expect you to even begin to understand where i am coming from. if we were face to face, i'd simply agree with you and the conversation would end for me.

I grew up hearing the word too. In the deep South, where it was an ugly thing to hear. And my saying that someone else said something is not the same as me saying it. If I say "Bill said 'I am 23'" that's not the same thing as me saying "I am 23."

I think I want to get a new set of golf clubs, but I don't want to break the bank...
Maybe check your local thrift shops. One near me has a ton of clubs, all sizes for cheap. Even though I suck at golf, I'm considering buying them, getting them refurbished and hitting the driving range. EDIT.

I currently have a hodgepodge set with matching irons that are at least 10 years old, and various woods of various ages. I want to get a matching set that includes hybrids. Dick's has a Top-Flite set for $199. I'm going to go check that out today or tomorrow. I too suck at golf, but I'm trying to get better.

Dave snagged his at a sale at Dick's: buy club X get Y and Z for free, buy club A get B and C for free. Managed to get an entire set plus a new bag for about 50% off retail that way. Also, there's a chain here called Play It Again Sports that specializes in used sporting equipment: maybe check to see if something similar is near you.

Tina, we have Play It Again Sports here in Atlanta. I bought my driver there.

Catching up on Big Break PEI. Why is Derek so afraid to "lose to a girl"? What a jerk.
Me too Joey. I actually saw the world debut of "Empty Spaces" the show that Strange Angels came from in Charleston SC at Spoleto in 1989. I've seen Laurie 3 times.

I've been a fan since a former girlfriend introduced me to her music back in 1986. Home Of the Brave had just come out, and she let me hear it on cassette. I promptly bought my own copy. I would love to see her in concert. I have a bootleg recording of her Moby Dick show that sounded very cool.
