    maybe i read the wrong post, handlebar

    the one i read said,
    "Blue collar Catholics?
    The last time that was a significant demographic group was about fifty years ago, correct?
    -- thepunk"
    THAT got you so mad? how could it? is being obviously incorrect offensive? or did the recent finding that moslems have beaten the catholics in the baby-making race put your nose out of shape?(making handlebar's problematic)
