As a card-carrying member of the N.O. Secular Humanist Association, better known as NOSHA, I'm happy to find some confreres here. I dunno about Madelyn. She was kinda far out. Well, at least for Boston. I'm not a zealot about being an atheist, but I sure do wish the politicians would stop saying God Bless The United States of America at the end of their speeches. First, I have no idea what this means. Second, last time I checked I live in the USA, not the United States of Religion.
Okay, that's sure to piss a few people off, so ... on another topic, I'm a big YANKEE fan. [subtle smokescreen to divert thrown rotten fruit and swats with hammers.]
