The whole point of free speech is not to make ideas exempt from criticism but to expose them to it.

I pledge allegiance...

On a recent tour of northeastern South Dakota I passed this pond. Almost immediately my mind showed me the following images.


I transferred the image from the camera card to my computer and used Photoshop to crop and manipulate the contrast. Anybody can do this with an elemental digital camera. And you can also exchange one color or tone to another easily with Photoshop and other image manipulation programs.

I swear. I saw this image as I passed the pond. Will someone tell me what that means? I may call this "Liberte` Realite`." Or is that too elitist?

Jeez, Wayne. There's the constant moderate bad taste with which I am afflicted; then there's outright crassness, and I think you've crossed the line.

Wayne's probably just thinking about that "walks on water" thingy, Bob. Pretty literal metaphor actually. Maybe if it had a few barefoot prints?

Personally. reminds me of breasts.

But then of course, everything I see does.

I'm really just here to serve as an example of a level of bad taste to be avoided, I post so that you snd others can find comfort in saying to yourself: "at least I haven't sunk as low as Wayne."
