  • What's the Point?

    Dear STUPIDocles,

    Ha Ha, you jokester!  You're so clever.  You absolutely skewered
    all those hoity-toity rich folks who don't have time for their own
    children.  I wish I were just half as clever and gracious as you,
    assuming the worst about people you know absolutely nothing
    about.  How about you actually take the time to talk to people and
    ask them why they use daycare?  Have you ever heard of the single
    mother?  The family who needs two incomes to stay afloat? 
    And why are you telling
    parents how to raise their kids, are you some kind of
    expert?  You don't even have any!  I've always been one to
    call a tool for digging, typically
    having a long handle and a narrow, flat metal blade that can be pressed
    into the ground with the foot
    a spade; and you sir, are not a spade, but you are a tool (or fool, you choose!).  Consider yourself  <<<<<<<<<<FLAMED!!!>>>>>>>>>>

                           
       
    *** The SCARECROW ***

    Dear Mr. Scared-Cow,

    I
    respectfully ask that you refrain from making fun of my name.  I'm
    afraid you read a little too much into my last post.  I was not in
    fact scaring anybody (it's spelled s-c-a-r-e-d, not
    "skewered").  You did have a good suggestion to talk to
    people.  You might want to use it yourself, and find out what I
    really meant by my post.  You have "cleverly" and "graciously"
    assumed the worst of me who(m?) you know absolutely nothing
    about.  I don't have a child, but I'm certainly entitled to an
    opinion about them.  I don't have a Goodyearâ„¢ blimp either, does
    that mean I can't have an opinion about Goodyearâ„¢ blimps?

    I
    am glad to hear that I am not a spade.  Perhaps I am a crescent
    wrench or a saw.  Tools can be used to do good work as well as
    bad.  And you, my friend, are a rebellious hammer that struck my
    thumb instead of the nail like it was supposed to (bad tool!).

          How about a little fire, ScareCrow?    Get a brain!
