    If I censor my past works, they have no basis to sue me.

    Unless someone on social media finds some remark made years ago that
    offends them (real or imaginary) and causes a stink about it.

    Parents here like to deflect their responsibilities.

    And people in general. Nothing is ever their fault, its always someone else's fault, such as the hot coffee lady mentioned the other day.

    Joe,

    And people in general. Nothing is ever their fault, its always
    someone else's fault, such as the hot coffee lady mentioned the other
    day.

    I know one of the prohibitions in this echo is on "religion"...but I
    have to add that in the parable of the "talents", Jesus excused no one
    from personal responsibility.

    They want the credit when it satisfies or uplifts their egos...but,
    want no part of it if they're guilty...especially if they did something illegal. The tagline below bears this out, especially with politics
    (yeah, I know...another "prohibition").

    Along that line, this life of wine, women, and song, is getting me
    down. I guess I'm going to have to give up singing. <G>
